Skid plates
I'm planning on building custom skid plates and armor for the Jeep. I was just going to see if any body had some dimensions and sizing for different skids, i.e. oil pan, gas tank, etc.. Also, anyone used aluminum diamond plating for skids? I don't think it would be too heavy, but I don't want to sacrifice protection. Thanks everyone.

Front skid
Ive got a front skid off an 89 Limited that needs a little work on the mounting bracket. $15 plus shipping and you could use or modify to your own tastes.

Do you hear banjos?
I did, but I don't have dimensions for it, I just winged it, like the rest of my crap!! Check out my build thread, it's in there if you need food for thought...

i winged everything lol
my belly skid is basically a flat piece of steel across the framerails
but to do that i had to build a crossmember that lifted my t-case, clock my t-case, move my cat converter back, hammer up my floor, and make some new t-case linkage.
if you want a nice easy gas skid get a stock skid and plate it with some 3/16"
