Vendors, 2 dr. owners are still are waiting. Aluminum and it’s rust free weight savings would be ideal for our shorter wheel base rigs with our greater break over angles. I run a 2.75” lift and 37’s and very seldom scrape on 4, 5 and 6 rated trails. Most folks (like me) only do harder Rubicon type trails a couple times a year. Aluminum will stand up to the less scraping with 2dr. rigs. BTW, an aluminum offering weighing as much as metal but at nearly twice the cost isn’t the right idea, haha. A belly pan like Artec Industries alum. 4 dr. is a bench mark example. Genright’s alum. 4dr. slider is also a very good example. IF you build it they will come.
If you are a 2dr. owner and agree, post up. Maybe a vender will hear us. FYI, I’ve offered to both mentioned vendors a pre-pay for a custom build. No takers.

I hope LoD decides to make aluminum sliders for a 2 door. I love that they have a bolt-on steel skid for those times when you think you might bash against rocks, and for the rest of the time just remove it to save weight and for the corrosion resistance. If they release a 2 door version that's reasonably priced, I'll ditch my rusting sliders in a heartbeat.

I read somewhere that @Artec finally decided to make a 2-door version, but I don't have any confirmation of this and it's not on their website yet.

I just received a email from Artec Industries

Ben,
We are working on these, but they will not be available until later this year.
Thank you.

Anyone interested in a lightly used 2dr. metal belly pan?

Throwing in my interest as well for this. Been holding off on a 2door slider in hopes of an aluminum / minimalist design to come along.

GenRight makes a great alum. slider but not for a 2dr. even thou they have a part # RCG-10102. If enough folks ask maybe they would.
https://genright.com/contact-us/

As of right now we are still a while off on these. Unfortunately we have not had much interest in them.
If we start getting a lot of calls with people ready to purchase them, they will move up on the priority list. As of right now we are working on Elite suspension systems and full roll cages for the JT and JKU.
Thanks, Jeff Perkins

As of 2022 now, still no aluminum sliders for the 2 door JL. Anyone come across any?
