I'm not lifted and use the MC FAD skid, relocation bracket and steering stabilizer with absolutely zero negative results. I'm probably going to get their front diff cover/ skid next. I can't see any negatives to that at all. Not sure why they would even say that to be honest.

I honestly don't know. I do plan on getting the 3.5 GC in the next year. I will install all the goodies then. The underarmor and rear diff skid plate is on order.

Artec aluminum skid for the win. Only adds an additional 10 lbs over the stock skids. Fit is tight and you never have to worry about rust

And in mine it added about 3/4 of clearance better than the factory set up. Expensive but is really well engineered.

Is a lift required for the MC or RH skid systems? It’s not mentioned on their website but Artec requires a 1.5” lift. I would rather not lift at the moment.

I have the MC underarmor with no lift. Fits perfectly. I was up in the old dale mining district this weekend and the underarmor and RS slider got a workout. Only got a small ding on the driver's side on the slider. Highly recommend the MC underarmor.

Same for MC, but I just got word MC should be releasing thier 2021 version in about 30-60 days.
It looks like they actually made the 2021 change an option, for the 3.6. I have waited a year for @Artec to get the JLUD version and its always one the same response, "should be next xxx". Those dates have gone way to long and while I like the product if it's not out by 2021, Metal Cloak seems like the next best option. Their DEF solution is not great but the rest looks solid.
