Early Run

Took a short early season run today (40 Miles from home) Empire Colorado. Still very wet, quite a bit of snow. Still running in winter form ie..ASFIR Armor off, sway bars attached etc. Slapped on the front Mopar skid and just took a quick trip. Had a good time but cut it short
to come home and be responsible!

Hi,
A quick question please, you have a 3.7 V6 Liberty and you have ASFIR skids? Have you got the Front & Central one?
I can see how the front one might fit, but the central one :shock:

?! I took a look under a V6 but due to the down pipes I would not fit. I have a CRD 2.5 and have fitted them, I have friends with the V6 who would like to fit them, but here at least only the one for the CRD is available and doesn't fit the V6, In the US can you get them for the V6?

Also great photos, Colorado looks beautifull, must get out there one day ( hopefully soon).

" I took a look under a V6 but due to the down pipes I would not fit" Down pipe was not an issue. Small trim on the sides further back. Thats all.
cheers

Thank you for showing me, up to know everyone I have spoken to told me the center Skid from Asfir could be fitted to a V6, guess you managed and proven them wrong, good to know. Any chance you have a photo of where the front & Center Skid meet up so I can see howmuch space there is? Sorry to be a pain and ask. In the mean time, I will up date some posts on other KJ boards.

Fil, no worries I'll see if i can get some other pics for you. It really fits in there pretty tight but was easy to do. Keep in mind I have the 45rfe. Most the hole line up pretty well and just drilled a couple holes and ran bolts through the others. Any other questions on the project let me know. The trimming was only about 2 inch piece on each side. maybe you can see that in the pic.
Cheers

The pipe on passenger side is a tad lower than the plate but it is outboard of it.

In this shot you can see the notch at the crossmember which I just slightly enlargred.

Drivers side you can see is very tight, the pipe all but touchs but fits just fine, must be at least 3mm clearance.

From the front. (MOAB)
Hope these help

Hi,

yes I had to cut there to on mine, I have a 2003 CRD 2.5 manual. Thank you for posting the photos, very helpful I have friends in Jeep Clubs over here that will be happy to know and see it fits.

Thank you again for your time.
