Engine/trans Skid for 2.0?.?.?

[freddiegs]

Saw that, but it's about $90 more when shipping is calculated.
Does it cover the transmission also?

Yeah that's the only hesitation about going with Rusty's is the shipping cost. I've called them and they said that's just how much it was do to weight. Quadratec is a dealer too and offer free shipping on most orders but they don't currently sell the skids

Did they not give you a freight option?
Either way being that it’s USA made, a few dollars more isn’t a big deal to me. However everyone’s needs are different.

Few dollars more? It is $90 difference.
They do give shipping options and the cheapest is $70, 2 day air was $440.

Sure on the engine skid it’s a good chunk. I bought the full set and I think my shipping was sub $200.

For me a $90 premium to buy local is worth it. I just view it as staying out of the bar with the fellows for a night.

Yeah the do offer free shipping on the complete kit right now but I feel $70 is a little to much to pay for shipping.

For reference I sent a spare set of factory upper control arms to a guy in Washington state that needed them. USPS was $46.30. Absolutely ridiculous for a box as two arms which weighed 10.41 lbs. shipping is expensive anyway you look at it.

I have the Rustys and they are fantastic and work well. I would recommend them to anyone.

Here is a shot from when they were new. Do not look this shiny anymore.

How are these still holding up?? Thinking about these but the reviews are no where to be found.

I beat the heck out of them in Moab and other than the scratches and a small dent where the jeep fell on to them hard I have ZERO complaints. The coating is very tough and easy to touch up.

I would recommend them with zero hesitation.

I'm about to order this one from ASFIR, shipping from Israel is a bit scary.
I only want the engine portion at this time. Any USA Manufacturer that sell just the engine portion?

Did you ever buy from Asfir?

I have the Asfir engine skid and it bolts right up with the factory Rubi skids. The hardest part of the install is getting the drivers side bolt on through the metal tab.

Overall I am VERY happy with the skid and the protection it provides. I have had no rubbing at full flex and still at stock Rubi height.

I'm extremely happy with my Next Venture Motorsport skids. I'm posting more details on the install (as there is very limited info on them) here: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/next-venture-jlu-aluminum-belly-skids.71388/
