I have a DG skid plate that wont stop rattling. As you know it doesn't mount real clean. I have taken it off, and put it back on without success. Any ideas or tricks to get it to fit securely. Thanks.

You can also run a bead of silicone down the frame rail.

If they are bolted on are the bols tight. Use lock tight as well.

silicone works the best!
