Looks like you dodged a nightmare[emoji106] lucky it didn’t punch a hole on the trail. Good to see it can take a bit of punishment though[emoji482]

RIGHT!!
I carry enough oil to do a change on the trail and drain pan. But that would have sucked. Yes it definitely can take a hit. I ordered the EVO proteck skid system today for it.

Ha.. The way you wheel, I thought for sure you had skids already... You’ll have some peace of mind once you get them on. [emoji1360]

[emoji23] they have been on the list.
I just like to have a good time in some little rocks [emoji57] but it was really easy to get the wife to agree that I should put skids on after I showed her this one.
Peace of mind will be nice. This one must have snuck up on me. [emoji23]Then the best part... going to test them out!!!

Ouch...looks like justification for an Evo oil pan skid to me.

I ordered the manual transmission kit oil pan, tranny and exhaust crossover.
Last rubicon trip I hit the exhaust loop and popped the gasket at the head. And now this. I kinda want to keep the motor area safe. [emoji23]

Just got shipping confirmation on my skids and front shock relocation brackets. The next few days will be torturing....

Awesome!!! Whats the benefit of the front shock relocation?

It just pushes the bottom of the shocks out. because with the lift and bigger shock bodies, my shocks hit the frame rail before I get to full flex.

Hmmm... I guess I’ll have to keep an eye out once I get my 9000’s.

I was unaware of the issue. The way I found it, was checking to see how tight my break lines were during flex.
I'll post up before and after shots once I get them.

This is a great thing to see!! When I get home from fishing, I'll have new toys to play with.

I'm super excited to put it all on [emoji4]
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I kinda just do things as needed, or when I find an area I'm lacking after wheeling trips. I was planning on doing rear corner armor, but after finding the oil pan smashed skids bumped up to the top of the list.
