Skids what will fit an 04?

Ok so I am looking into ordering my skids for my Jeep. Right now all the budget will allow is Mopar skids. I am confused as to what will fit my Jeep... Jparts shows:
Transfer case 04-07 #82209455
Fuel Tank 02-07 #82206122
Front suspension 05-09 82210769
The main one that I question is the front suspension skid mainly because it is $70.33 and it says 05-09. Would these fit my Jeep? Are these the right ones to order? I just don't wanna order these and get the wrong things in and have to deal with that whole mess.

Thanks for any and all information.

Yes they will fit, but a few holes will not line up right. Some drilling is required for 02-04, but it's definately manageable. I went MOPAR too, they're just fine.

www.jparts.com is the cheapest place to get them.

***Mopar skids for anything older than 2005 are no longer available. The 2005+ skids WILL kind of fit on a 2002 - 2004, but you will have one hole not line up on the front skid (in the back drivers side) and one not line up on the Front drivers side (same hole) of the transmission skid, and the back passenger side of the transmission skid (and the matching hole on the t-case skid). So you will need to drill out two holes to make them work. The metal drilled pretty easy though.

Thanks for the info!

Now I just need to figure out what bank to rob:twisted: then I will place the order :lol:

But I think in the mean time I will keep my eye on the for-sale forum and look for some 02-04 skids. I've got the time now that I'm not going to be able to go to ECS... :cry:

Isnt the front skid a lot thinner now? Ive heard the on the 05+ they thinned it out.

I have an '04 as well and just went with the Mopar skids. They fit fine with some minor drilling as mentioned in the link above. I couldn't be happier for the price.

I have an 04 Liberty and I think the only skidplate that I had difficulty with was the transmission one. I couldn't get one for the 04 Liberty. All it meant was drilling another hole.
