Default skids

I'm gonna armor up the undercarriage after my hitch/bumper purchase. Rusty seems to have both skids that i want (oil pan and t-case) so i may go with his but i'm just wondering if he's gonna give me a hard time with my order and shipping. I read about issues in the past but how is the business now? it seems that there are only two oil/tranny pan skids out there so not much choice in that area. There are a few t-case skids and i would like to get the warn skid but don't want to order the skids on seperate sites.

anyone order from rusty's recently?

for what its worth

i have never run an oil pan or tranny skid, and i have never had a rock go near there.

t-case and gas tank are far more important.

but i would reccomend a good belly skid for the t-case which also protects/replaces the crossmember and protects the catylitic converter.

Yeah alot of wheelers are saying the engine skid and tranny skid aren't as neccessary as others but i bashed my tranny pan on a rock during my last outing. You should've seen the condition of my transmission pan on my old TJ . My trails have alot of drop-offs and mounds to climb and it's easy to drag the undercarriage.

By the time i am done spending my cash, i would like to have the entire undercarriage skidded and beefed up. It's one less thing to worry about. I was considering the DPG belly pan but from what i read it doesn't work with a tranny/oil pan skid or other skids. That's what i read but correct me if i'm wrong.
