Question Undercarriage/ tierod deflector

Not entirely sure what to call it, but I've been noticing a fewer early model Cherokee's, (possibly mid 90's an earlier/ ZJ's) have a heavy duty under carriage shield. I have a 90 2 door loredo and was curious if anyone has any experience putting those on an XJ?

I'm thinking the bodys are practically the same and I could just drill some bolt holes for it!


Lemme know folks.

There's a lot of companies that make aftermarket skid plates. You can also get lucky and find OEM or aftermarket at the junk yard. They're all pretty much bolt on.

Looking at the skid plates at the yard, I'd say they were pretty strong. They felt like. 8 gauge Steele maybe thicker. I'm going back to pull one thx for the help. I'll post again to confirm a fit on my 90'

They look good but they aren't very useful IMHO. Unless you're driving into bamboo like Clarkson on the Bolivia Special.
