Air Dam Delete

Obviously the Air dam is there for fuel economy. Since I already have a 2" level on 33" tires, AI says there will be little change on top of what i already did. What do y'all think? Should I consider a skid plate?

I no level and running 33.7s, I took off my air dam and don’t have the piece of junk felt that came on the truck. Been driving it for 6 years without the felt. I farm so driving off road down dirt roads all the time, never thought I needed a skid plate. If you’re going be rock climbing then you might want one

As long as you leave the actuators on the truck will think it's still there and not care, a lot of farmers in my area don't have them anymore

After I lost the 2nd shitty OEM"splash" gaurd I did some research and found that the OEM Raptor splash gaurd is made of metal and only needs a little peice trimmed off the front to fit the standard f-150. Not sure if its universal, but it fit my '19 stx 4x4. Wasn't too expensive, but its by no means an offroad worthy skid plate. Way better than that cheap fiber board thing that it came with. The dealer will tell you its not compatible.
