Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
The Clayton Off Road Rear Lower Control Arm Bracket Skid Plates (COR-4110010) protect the rear lower control arm brackets on the 2020–2026 Jeep Gladiator JT from rock strikes and trail debris. CNC-formed from 1/4" steel — thicker than many competing 3/16" alternatives — these bolt-on skids wrap around the OEM brackets, creating a protective barrier without cutting or welding. Built-in clearance gap allows the rear lower control arms to articulate through their full range of motion without skid plate contact or bushing interference at any suspension travel position. Installs using the existing bracket bolt locations with included 5/8" and 3/8" hardware. Powder coated in matte black for corrosion resistance. Made in the USA.
Confirm compatibility if running non-Clayton aftermarket control arms or control arm skid systems — some competing brands' rear skid plates are explicitly not compatible with Clayton control arms, and the reverse should be verified for non-Clayton setups before ordering.

Critical Compatibility
| Configuration | Notes |
|---|---|
| Non-Clayton aftermarket control arms | Verify compatibility before ordering — some competing rear skid plate brands explicitly exclude Clayton control arm compatibility, and the reverse should be confirmed for your specific non-Clayton setup |
| Control arm bushings | Designed not to affect bushings — verify built-in clearance gap is correctly positioned before final torque |
| Full suspension articulation | Confirm no contact between skid plates and control arms/bushings at full droop and full compression after installation, before trail use |
Common Questions
Will this work with aftermarket control arms from another brand?
Likely, but confirm before ordering. These skid plates are designed around Clayton's own control arm geometry and the OEM bracket mounting points. If you're running a different brand's control arms or an existing control arm skid system, verify clearance and bolt pattern compatibility first.
Does this affect control arm articulation?
No. The CNC-formed clearance gap is specifically engineered to allow full range of motion without the skid plate contacting the control arms or bushings at any point in suspension travel.
Why 1/4" steel instead of thinner options on the market?
Several competing rear control arm skid plates for the JT use 3/16" steel. Clayton's 1/4" thickness provides more material between the factory bracket and trail impacts — a meaningful difference for a part whose entire job is absorbing rock strikes.
Do I need to remove anything before installing?
No. This is a 100% bolt-on installation using the existing OEM bracket bolt locations — no cutting, drilling, or welding required.
The Obsidian Take
The COR-4110010 is for the JT owner running rocky trails who wants real protection for the rear lower control arm brackets — a known low, exposed point on the factory chassis. 1/4" CNC-formed steel, thicker than several competing options, bolt-on with the clearance engineering to avoid binding the control arms.
The only real check before ordering: if you've already swapped to aftermarket control arms from another brand, confirm clearance compatibility rather than assuming a universal fit — this is engineered around Clayton's own geometry and the factory bracket mounting points.
Non-Returnable Notice: Once installed, this product is non-returnable. Confirm full suspension articulation clearance after installation before trail use.
