The Mopar engine skid seems to be strong enough. It's around $50 I think. I also have the stock tranny one, but I promised it to NCjeepin. If he gets one before I can get it to him, you can have it. I have a welder and plasma cutter if you want to get some angle iron to strengthen it. Some guys on here have done that...

I bought the 4 Mopar skids for my '04 KJ. I'm more than happy with them for the price.

The mopar skids are a great value in my opinion. They are very cheap and offer moderate protection. Once you decide you need more protection is when you start looking beyond mopar.

I slid down right on a big rock last week and the front sussy skid certainly did it's job :D . I couldn't imagine what would've happened had the skid not been there :shock:

Try here, it is actually called a front suspension skid?
