My four door with manual tranny came with the skid plate. It'll fit any two or four door, manual or automatic. Get under yours and you'll see the threaded holes in the frame rails.

Had to yank mine since I have 4" of lift. The stock front shaft interferes with anything over 3" or so. I'm holding on to it for now. May use it if it clears an aftermarket shaft, if and when I need them.

Yes, i gave my auto tranny skid to dyolfknip last year, he bolted it right up in the parking lot, if he ever had an issue with it he never said so.
