Does anyone have the Kilby Engine Skid? I was considering the RockHard Oil Pan skid or the Skid Row one, but after reading about the exhaust rubbing issues, vibration issues, and drivelive rubbing issues (Skid Row), I'm looking into other options, hence the Kilby Engine Skid. I did a search and only came up with one person that mentioned getting one, but I haven't found any feedback on how well it works. Anyone?

 

I haven't seen where anyone actually SAID the SkidRow actually rubbed. I've seen where a couple of folks said it was a tight fit.

 

There is a rather lengthy thread about the issue--RockHard skid rubbbing against exhaust and causing vibration. That is what got me to looking into other alternatives. I saw a lot of the Kilby products at the off-road show, and they seemed well thought out, so I thought the Kilby skid my be worth a look.

 

I have been running with the Skid Row for 2 years now, and I have NO issues at all. From full flex rock crawling to everyday driving, it has taken all of the abuse I could throw a it. It has supported the full weight of my JK many times too.07 JK Unlimited

I have the Rockhard skid on a stock suspension with no problems. I also have the Kilby Muffler Skid. Both work very well.

 

is it a 2door problem or 4 door problem?

 

I have this skid and it rocks! I have been to Tellico and various other ORV parks and its held up fine. I had to contact Kilby direct and request this item. Its well worth the investment and protection it provides.

 

Any cutting, drilling, tapping required or is it strictly bolt-on?

 

I have a full set of Rockhard skids(sans evap skid, i relocated that) on my 2dr automatic with a 2" BB. I have no driveline rubbing issues, no exhaust vibration issues, everything bolted up perfect once i moved one of the forward braces to the outside of the skid instead of the inside, fits perfect, no issues whatsoever. Love it, would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

 

Yes, I was talking about the Kilby.....thanks. Any idea if Kilby is looking into fixing that problem? Still trying to decide which engine skid to get.
