Grok says the motor mounts are different for the e-Torque equipped Wranglers. Does anyone here run skid plate on their e-Torque engines? Rock Hard specifically mentions it and Artec is kind of vague about it. If I had my preference I'd go with aluminum.

I have Metalcloak skid plates on my 22 e-torque and except for the extra skid for the e-torque battery, I think they are the same as for a non e-torque jeep. The motor mounts may have changed over the years but I don't think that's specific to e-torque. If you have any doubts just contact the manufacturer.

The motor mounts changed from 18-20 and 21+ on the 3.6L. We offer for both versions.

ASFIR here too - great quality and pricing - little bit of a PIA to install.

I have the Artec aluminum skids on my ‘21 e-torque 3.6 auto 4 door Rubicon and don’t recall any issues other than the instructions were a bit vague around the motor mount brackets. Everything fit fine but it was a bit of a head-scratcher to figure out the MM brackets. I think I installed them back in ‘21 (first year of the new mounts) so the instructions are probably updated now.

Trusting the elon bot was your first mistake.

Another vote for @Metalcloak skids. I have done things to their etorque battery skid with no concerns. As a side note, seeing you avatar and speculating based on the user name @yokramer I’m going to guess you are more Jesus dude looking.

Yea Ill hand it to em the undercloak can take a beating, and they were SUPER quick to ship out a bracket that went missing in shipping too.
