Auto Trans Pan - Skid Protection Question HELP!
Just had my Full-Traction 3" Long Ram Suspension installed and Jeep looks awesome!
I was using the River Raider Oil Pan/Transmission Skid system (see old pictures). The FT kit replaces the factory cross brace with one of their own. The RR Trans Skid is designed to attached to the factory brace and now will not work as it was designed.
Now my pan is completely exposed...

Before I try and locate a fabricator in the Richmond VA area that can modify this RR skid to work with the FT brace, I like to ask the experts if they have a better solution.
Is anyone aware of an automatic transmission pan skid that would solve this issue?

Thanks guys. I don't know how I missed this product over my years of surfing Jeep sites and magazines.
It seems like there would be a market for this, however small it might be. Makers of long arm suspension systems should consider adding this, or a skid pan of their own design as an option, when they know the factory skid must be removed.They have to know buyers of LA's aren't spending the extra cash so they look "cool" going to the mall.
We actually use our skids!!!!!!!!!!Days after writing a huge check for my 3" suspension, I informed the wife I need to spend even more.
Wonder why?

$165 - $220 is more reasonable. I'll look for a deal somewhere.
