Any recommendations for sources for skid plates for my '04 Liberty??

I've been cruising the 'net, and many places say the "stock" Mopar skids have been discontinued
for '02 thru '05.

I don't mind going aftermarket, but the Mopar skids seem more than adequate, and are less
costly.

Just looking for inexpensive options at this point.

Just got the OE skid plates that were missing for my 02. Transmission skid was #82210003 and transfer case was #82209455. Not all the nutzert kit holes line up on some older models and some modification or drilling may be required as I discovered this afternoon. Drilling into the crossmembers is not a big deal and probably more solid than the silly nutzerts anyway - just use good carriage bolts and they go right in fine.

Just got the skids at the local dealership next day pickup to avoid shipping costs - were about $55 bucks each. Normally go to Mopar online discounters like http://www.moparonlineparts.com but shipping heavier items I avoid...

Do you have any skids at all? (Engine or gas tank seem common etc...)

Lucky me..... Mine came with NONE......

Likely will pick up a Front plate from Boiler when I see him later in the spring for my roof rack.

The Engine, Tranny, T-case, & intermediate I'd like to go Mopar, as they're less expensive than
the alternatives at the moment.

I won't be doing a ton of 'wheelin', but don't like the idea of being "naked" underneath......

depending on how soon i do this. I might be getting skid row skids if someone on here gets rid of their jeep. i would sell you mine then for how ever much it cost me to pay him for shipping :D a lot cheaper for all my skids than buying them new (considering mine a NEW anyways)
