Abstract: Using multiple hook-type anchor bolts the user can quickly mount and remove a protective plate on or under vehicles by hooking onto the frame and/or parts of the body of the vehicle. Hook-type anchor bolt mounting avoids costly, labor-intensive, complex, and risky drilling into the body and/or frame of the vehicle as required by conventional mounting process requiring bolt holes to be drilled into the frame and/or body of the vehicle and secured by bolts. With this new method of mounting a protective plate the user can mount or remove a protective plate in a few minutes instead of taking 2 hours or more. This new method also avoids the need to disassemble parts of the vehicle to drill the mounting holes in remote locations on the frame and/or body of the vehicle.
