This high clearance, smooth bottom skid plate.
Precision laser cut and CNC formed from 1/4" thick cold rolled steel.
Stronger and twice as thick material than the stock plate to provide superior protection to your undercarriage.
Designed to work with the GenRight Double Triangulate rear 4 link cross member (BKT-1033).
100% Made in USA!
Important NOTES:
Requires welding in a reinforcing brace (on the inside) to fit around your Jeeps drivetrain.
depending on your year and model Jeep, welding new 1/2-13 threaded bungs into the frame may be necessary.
A one-inch Body lift (BDL-9200) is required on all TJ and Rubicon applications for proper transfer case clearance.
Some exhaust modifications will be necessary.
Fits all TJ Wrangler models including the Rubicon and Unlimited LJ.
This kit provides the maximum amount of ground clearance possible, but requires some fine tuning of the rear pinion angle to eliminate driveshaft vibration.
A 1" engine Motor mount lift (DVL-9200) is recommended when installing this belly up skid.
Requires use of our transmission cross member kit (BKT-1050).
A slip yoke eliminator kit and CV drive shaft will be necessary.
Average install time is 3 hours and requires supporting the transmission and transfer case to install.
