What attaches to this bushing / mount?

[taylormade73]

So I just contacted my local Jeep shop and he is looking for a skid plate for me. He is just as shocked as everyone here. Im truly baffled at this situation and that it might possibly has messed something up. Hopefully he can find me a plate and I won't have to buy a brand new one. Of course I doubt it will be in before this weekend but... I will post a Pic of said Jeep in the next reply.

Get one from a junkyard

Or if you're planning on upgrading Barnes, UCF and others make aftermarket skids that can tuck up into the frame with a body and motor mount lift.

I just sold one of my stock skid plates.

I will look into them. Right now he is quoting $380+++ for a stock replacement. I know I can get it cheaper...

Does that include labor?

But you should be able to find one wayyy cheaper. I literally could not give mine away (except as scrap)

 

[mudmaster]

i see them on eBay for $80 and up

 

[mikey.wayne]

WTF

$380? I sold my oem one for $150.

Didn’t see where you listed what year your TJ is. TC skids changed on 2003 and up.

I have a stack of them you can have for free. I just gave one away a few days ago.

No freaking way!!! Are you sure.

He wouldn’t have offered if he weren’t.

Yes, I'm sure. I'm also sure that shipping is going to kick your ass so you need to find someone swinging through southern California to snag one or several for you. 97-02 or 03-06?

I recently installed this one. It's drilled for any year, but the transmission will sit about 1/2" higher than the stock skid. If you have a lift, you might need to use some spacers with this.

example of the skid plate spacers which include the longer bolts for 97-02 and 03-06.

Lol id rather pay 50-75 for shipping than 200 for a new one
