Rugged replacement. Would like to see an optional model that had the three mounting holes threaded and be welded on. I have a small body shop. This is my second support I have purchased and both of mine required welding due to the factory one being destroyed. The oem one isn't worth purchasing.
I was surprised how tight this bracket fits over the existing bracket on my 2016 Canyon. I needed to gently smack each side with a mallet a few dozen times to wiggle it into place enough to insert the bolts. However, it is well built, sturdy and finished with a very nice powder-coat. Time will tell if it stands up to impacts on the trail, but after initial install I'm confident it will get the job done.
Fits snug, installs easy and helps to reinforce the inadequate factory bracing.
This things solid. Sure, the factory one is good for most people, but this is a real solid jack point and offers significantly more support for your skid plates.
Nice tight fit. Great protective coating. Used rubber mallet to bump into place. Was afraid to ding up the nice protective coating with my existing skid plates so I cut a thin piece of foam from some packing as a compressible protective barrier between the new support bracket and where my scratched up skid plates bolt up to the bracket. .
