Default two t-case skids?

Do you think it's possible to run another stock skid right behind the factory one? I figured it'd be cheap protection for the rear of the t-case. I'm not sure if it would work, just thinking off the top of my head cuz i can get the skid free. We could bolt it to teh frame rail just like the factory one.
Will the exhaust be in the way?

won't work.

unless you lengthen it somehow and then your better off getting an $80 skid that will bolt in and not hang as low. also the exhaust hangs down on the other side

the single stock skid will protect the t-case well, no need for another behind it.

ok that's what i thought (exhaust). I hit the rear of my t-case coming off a pointed rock the last time i off roaded. The rock slid on the crossmember and then hit the rear of the t-case as it slid off. That's what got me thinking of covering it but maybe you are right, easier way would just be a warn t-case skid.

Take a look at DPG and TnT skids, they cover a very large amount of the underside of your jeep.

True they are a bit pricier.
