Rear skid plate bending over in terrain

For some time now I have the feeling that the stock rear skid plate on our QM isnt really working how we want it to.
Most of the time it digs itself into the ground, folding over & taking some soil samples with us home.
Biggest problem is that the skid plate is bolted down on the rear bumper mount, so the skid gets folded over & rear bumper hangs fairly crooked.

I can imagine this is a QM only problem, the lengthened chassis overhang is responsible for this.
We encountered this on multiple occasions, even when softroading/greenlaning.

Does anyone know a decent solid aftermarket solution?
I would like to see someone design one that has a sort of supported angled front ramp, helping to get he chassis over the obstacle instead of digging it deeper in & folding over.

For time now I will remove the skidplate, until someone makes a decent replacement.
 
First off good on you using the quartermaster as a earthmoving machine. I haven't found one that matches your thoughts here, same as mine. But I'll keep on looking too. I have dub my Grenadier as well, specially climbing in and out of rivers.
