Ordered skid plates

[Jeepsk8]

Crawled under the JLUR to have a look around. Welds are nice, lol. There are some fairly large gaps between the factory skids / bars and the gas tank skid doesn't seem adequate for the type of wheeling I do. I went ahead and ordered the Rock Hard skid plate system. Hopefully I don't have fitment issues with the LoD sliders.

I’m interested in those too when I get my Jeep. Did you order steel or aluminum?

Steel. I will be in the rocks, lol.

I'm interested in those too. They look great but my concern too is they look like they would interfere with a frame-mounted slider such as LOD. Maybe you can somehow get it to work? Please let us know how the install goes.

They absolutely interfere with each other. They neglected to include the brackets for the fuel tank skid but I have all the rest of it installed. I had to cut some notches in the belly skid to fit over the front mounts for the LoD sliders. My concern now is how the tank skid is going to go since it uses the same mounting location as the sliders. Stay tuned for that. The system is extremely rugged but a huge PITA to install. They could have designed more form fitting brackets for the oil pan skid, I had to call them because it wasn't lining up with where it connects to the belly skid, but I had to alter the belly skid first anyway, but it was still a struggle. There are a few fasteners that are all but impossible to get a nut on and one has to be a contortionist to get them on, and then trying to get a wrench on it. I'd like to kick whoever is responsible for those right in the ding-dong.
