Most likely FactoryMoparParts.com because that's where Lauren mentioned he got his for the cheapest price and least amount of shipping.
About to ride my bike to the bank to deposit skid plate money.

Love warm weather so I can ride everywhere including work.
I plan on getting any missing hardware from the dealer.

Officially ordered my skids.
Came to $260.57.
I did NOT order a gas tank skid... I'll take care of that one in the near future. Well actually I'll probably let the dealer do it, unless I feel energetic.

if you had the time to do some fab work, a 4x8 3/8" sheet would be around $180. I believe we KKs have the gas tank skid as a stock feature.

All KKs have the gas tank holder. It's kind of a skid, but extremely light duty(people have dented their tanks already). The skid replaces that part with a similar, but much beefier part.

Guilty of denting mine! 1/4" would do the job more than well enough haha. Especially if you brace it up more than just added a plate to the bottom.

3/16s is plenty. The mopar skid isnt very thick, still thicker than the "non" skid.
