So I just did my first off-road trip at the Jeep Jamboree Badlands and pushed my Willys to its limits (stock suspension and tires). Luckily I have aftermarket bumpers and winch cause they all saw some use as well as the stock rock rails. I somehow tore the boot on the front driveshaft too. Plenty of rock rash on my wheels now too. The skids plates also got plenty of use on rocks and bad break over height. Do I need to bend the skids back around where they should be? The exhaust had about 1/8" to the skid before but now is firmly resting on it lol.

wouldn't hurt as sooner or later the exhaust will vibe on the skid and probably drive ya nuts.

Yup every damn day! What I do once a month just tie up the exhaust so it gets pulled up with wire so it avoids the skids.

The skids are fine I have two huge dents on my gas thank, my t-case skid was so bent we had to cut part of it to make room for my front drive shaft

Invest in a aftermarket heavy duty crossmember like the poison spyder one(stock one sucks) added mine last week and gained some clearance

Who makes the engine skid?

Pretty worthwhile upgrade? Not sure if I bent that or not lol.

auceny

It's the M.O.R.E. engine/tranny skid. I assume what bent that was the break over on a concrete climb.

Great upgrade and not overly expensive I paid more with our weak Canadian dollar alot beefier
