Default Front control arm skids

Any recommendations about skid plates for the front control arms? I am thinking of getting the Rancho skids.

They work. LOL
2012 4 door Rubicon on 35" BFG MT's.
If you have an upgraded axle housing, such as a Dynatrac Pro Rock 44, that housing doesn't have the "ear" to attach this skid.
Thanks!

I have JKS skids which are weld-on like the EVO skids.

I have the weld-on EVO LCA skids, but any of them will work. They save the lower control arms and brackets from lots of abuse.

I have the Rancho bolt-on skids. I had a hard time installing one of them due to the mount being all beat up, so whatever you do, do it before the brackets get the hell banged out of them. The Rancho's were easy to install and work well.
