sureshot007 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 So what do you guys use for skid plates and how do you mount them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I used a stock skid plate I found in the JY. Got it for $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sureshot007 Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 You have to forgive me as I am a little new to jeeps - were does it attach to? It's nothing like my subarus, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reson46 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Can you be more specific? :hmm: What part of the vehicle do you want to protect with a skid plate? Willy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sureshot007 Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 That's the plan, but I am just trying to get an idea of what some people use, and where/how they are mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well pretty much pick a spot on the uni rail and weld up some nuts and bolt your skid to it. You can buy skids for engine, front steering, gas tank, and tcase and tranny, what else you need is custom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 My t-case skid attaches to angle iron that has 1/2" grade 8 bolts that go sideways through the frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
