Something else to maybe think about is unibody stiffeners,They do work and will cut back on body flex.

Good choice, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

All of TnT's fabrication that I've seen has left me very impressed.

Full traction has a similar belly pan to TNT, but one piece.

Has anyone seen / used a turbo city Rock-it oil pan guard? The one that glues on the oil pan?

I've been thinking of getting a Rusty's transfer case skid, worth buying?

Soon I'll have box steel rockers so built in sliders there. Transfer case seem to be the only other vulnerable spot under my jeep for now. (4.5" of lift on 33s)

I went with the JCR because it ties the frame rails in better.

I have the Rusty Rocker Guards $99 plus shipping, I like the factory look to them, they arent out there in your face..

The Tomken skid plate is the very thinnest steel of all the ones listed, the reason it was the cheapest.
