Temporarily Remove Maybe Shave This
Temporarily remove this bolt. And shave this ridge off both sides.
When I rotated the rear of the plate up to the bell housing the fun began. There was one more bolt in the way, but that was easily removed and there would be room to reinstall it after. But the back of the skid came right up to the inspection plate on the bell housing. It would not go up into place because of the ridges on the plate. The pictures on their web site and the instructions indicate that the plate doesn't come that close and you will need some washers between the skid and the bolts on the bell housing. Maybe you will on your rig, but not on mine. I had to shave down those ridges and that took some time.
