The Rockhard system wont’t fit as-is with LOD rocksliders because those rocksliders mount to the frame in the same area that the rockhard bellypan system covers. This could be an issue with other rock sliders as well.

You can get the rockhard rock sliders that will fit with the rockhard system.

I just saw this is in the turbo forum. My comments are for the 3.6 liter pentastar. I’m not sure this would apply to a turbo or not.

Thought I would add to this, as I'm looking myself.

To be honest, I'm a little bummed at the "WHOLE SYSTEM ONLY" sales approach a bunch of these companies are using. I am not convinced I need an entire system. The factory system is good enough, but it has some shortcomings.

Rusty's Offroad is also selling systems for the 2.0L Turbo, but they also sell them individually as well.

I'm not really looking to drop 2k on skids right now. But $300 to protect the totally exposed oil and transmission pans, yes:

It would be nice if these companies sold these units as sections. I realize that's not possible with a full system like what Artec developed.

I'm not going to be dragging my belly on Prichett next weekend or the Rubicon. But there are still plenty of rocks that can get that oil pan.

Aftermarket vendors should take notice.

I can relate on my Landcruiser Slee sold them in sections in both aluminum and steel , for me though i want aluminum and at this point it seems that those are only coming as complete belly pans
