Anyone with a G550 4x4 or G65 have a fitment issue with the front skid plate? Mine is off about a 1/4 inch side to side (see pics). Loosened up the 6 bolts and tried to re-align to no avail. Then I dropped the whole plate and tried to re-align the black frame to which the plate attaches to no avail. Any suggestions to make this small adjustment? To my knowledge, no minor accidents happened to cause this - truck has 30 miles on it - didn't notice it until I got it home. Easy fix would be to round out the holes on one side to give me more adjustment, but I'd rather make that the last option given this is a $225k truck.

I am pretty sure that it is a common problem with all G's which have the Front Skid Plate attached.

See below our 6x6, as well as a G65 and G550 4x4 which I took photos of. Not sure if there is a fix or not?

The photos are small, however you can see one side is lower than the other.

Thanks for the input.

Same issue in all of them.

Anyone have any idea if the G550 4X4 is going to a regular production?
It wasn't on the MBUSA online site until today I guess.
