Finally the new skids have shown up... From looking at the quality of the Rock Hards and state of my Gas Tank skid I think that will be the next mod.

Install wasn't that bad at all.. You could do this by your-self but it's so much easier if you've got an extra pair of hands to help move the jack around and get tools that have rolled down the drive way

JUST REMEMBER it helps if the Jeep is cold.. That engine block and exhaust gets pretty damn hot. (who would of guest )

I put the Rubi up on the ramps just to give me a little more room so I could use my creeper. I put the skid on my my jack and used it to do the lifting... then just spent some quality time on my back looking up (hey now get your minds out of the gutter ). It's amazing how much trail damage is really down there.. The only difficult part of the entire install was the front bracket's / hangers.. Feeding the bolts thru the frame right at the Motor mounts is a tad tight... If you've got "THICK" fingers it's a BE-O-TCH. Nice thing about the install it's a direct bolt on, no drilling or cutting require.

The only down side.. The pic's that come with the instructions which Rockhard keeps telling you to refer to SUCK.. They are so damn small you can't see shite. Oh ya before I forget the instructions bounce between metric and imperial measurements

I'll post a pic of the finish product.
