Version 2...

Skid plate covers the entire bottom...

Bungee cord to keep the tail cone in the up position (attaches to latch) when backing up to minimize damage to it. Yes, that means I have to git out to tie the tail cone up...but I don't back up on extreme driveways except a few times.

Snubber to keep the tail cone from bumping into the tire as the suspension articulates...
