This does not fit a Mojave. One of the brackets that have to be removed hold the remote reservoirs for the front shocks. It looks like the Oracle skid plate would fit without removing that bracket but the lights on the back of the skid plate hit the brackets and there is no way to reach up and hold the nut for the skid plate with the bracket in place. I hope Oracle comes up with a fix for this. I have waited so long for this and was so excited to finally have it delivered.

Can you provide a picture of this reservoir? It is correct that those brackets need to come off to mount the Skid-Plate. This was prototyped on our JTR and did not have such reservoir.

Here is the driver and passenger side.

Looks like the reservoir has it's own bracket? This should be separate from the bottom plate. Have you tried removing these brackets yet?

I think the only way it would work would be to relocate the reservoir. If there was a way to make the skid plate work with the bottom bracket in place it would work perfect.

The reservoir is attached to the bottom bracket.
Did you physically remove the OEM skid plate and these brackets to confirm this? Or are you just looking from the outside and making this observation?

In your pictures, the two do look close together, but separate. We need to be 100% certain here.

I installed mine yesterday as well. Looks great and gives good lighting. My only issue is one of the bulbs barely lights up. I have contacted support multiple times but still havent heard back.

I have the OEM Steel Front Bumper and have installed a Warn Winch using the Warn Winch Plate. The brackets for the winch plate interfere with mounting this skid plate. I am working through making some spacer plates to bump out the skid plate so it does not hit the winch plate brackets. Once I have it mocked up, it think it will be nicer than the intended fit. It should snug up against the bumper instead of the gap left when mounted as intended. More to come.

Yes, the winch plates are the only fitment anomalies we've come across so far aside from Aris' discovery on his Mojave earlier.

For your situation, the 1/2-3/4" spacer will do the trick to get the outer lights on the plate to clear the winch plate bolts just enough to get it mounted. You don't want to go much further than that.
