Hey Jeepers,
Just wanted to make a new thread to try and give fair warning to anyone looking to modify their Jeep and are unsure on how well things match up. If you have any parts or mods that have to be cut, drilled, etc in order to fit with something else, let us know! There may be other threads like this, but I didn't see any off the bat, and I ran into an issue of my own, so I'll start us off.
A Rock Krawler X-Factor lift will not be compatible with many rear differential skid plates, due to the fact that they add a relocation bracket for the track bar(I think, it may be a different bar, but bracket all the same). The new bracket is mounted around the rear axle, and is usually pretty close to the rear differential, which may cause some fit issues for most rear diff skid plates. I tried to install a MetalCloak rear diff skid, and it overlapped with the relocation bracket, which was a huge bummer because the MC skids are beefy and gorgeous.
Anyways, post any issues you've run into and help your fellow Jeepers out, before they spend the money and wait for delivery, just to send it all back!
