Next Venture JLU Aluminum Belly Skids

copy,

let me know when you get them or get notification of them being shipped?

sent them an email on November 22 and they said they had 10 in front of my order and they expected slow down with the Thanksgiving Holiday and would expect that my order would likely go out the next week.

That time frame has passed.. I am sure they are like all business right now, struggling for employees.

Will do.

I've been asking monthly since early October. Same story each time, just waiting on one piece and they should be ready next week.

Fortunately, I'm not in any hurry but would rather hear a meaningful status update regardless of what that timing looks like.

I ordered a full belly set with UHMW for the 392 as well as front/rear diff covers and skids on Black Friday. Hearing that you guys that ordered in August still haven’t received yours makes me concerned it’ll summer before my order is completed.

Good luck man.

I have a set of their diff skids. It's good stuff and definitely worth the wait.

Four years and no JL offering. WTF

Next Venture has a large selection of JL parts. Wrong thread maybe? Next Venture JL Parts Here.

FYI, This is a Belly Pan thread. No JL (2dr) offering after 4 years. Same with Artec Industries, No JL offering.

I thought only us sacrilegious 4 door owners needed full belly skids? That is curious that neither company offers a 2 door kit this late into the production run. Maybe the market is too strong for them to keep up with the 4 door offerings without expanding the selection further.

Just installed the Next Venture skid system on my 392.

I've been waiting on the diesel skids since Sept 7.

Eager to hear your impressions! I nearly pulled the trigger on that set, but decided to await the Artec option. Artec only says “2022”…hope it’s fast! I like the look of the next venture kit, but it’s very new and Artec seems proven and liked by many. I also don’t understand metallurgy enough to have an opinion about the two alloys..

Apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but I wanted to give an update on my install of the belly and rear diff skids. Love that there's a cutout for the fuel filter.

The fuel tank was the biggest PITA, but once I got that under control, everything else went smoothly.
