So i recently acquired a couple signs:) I would like to change them into skid plates for my stock 2006 Liberty Sport (All stock, but I did trim the bumper today!) but I am not sure how.. I have an idea I think, but if anyone has pictures of them done, where they get mounted, the best brackets/bolts to attatch them with, it would help me HEAPS.

=D Size not a problem, I can get them cut. If you know dimensions, even better.

Road signs do not really make good skid plates, not heavy enough at all, what they do make is a way to keep dirt,sand etc from entering the front skid since it is shaped like a shovel and scoops eveything up.
I'll throw some pics up in a few

There are four bolts in the bottom of the support below the radiator, you can use those plus drill into the front skid to support it. On mine since I have the ARB I attached it from the front of it all the way back down. I curved it just so I could have more clearance when pulling up and getting ready to climb rocks or whatever. It does a great job and keeping the junk out of the front skid. Also I just made it as wide as the front skid.
These are all old pics but if you need more let me know

Mileage Trend:

I've actually seen a neat idea for skid plates using nylon as a liner for the bottom. It makes for sliding over rocks a breeze. Maybe I should try that idea on the Libby's front skid
