Any one install the rugged ridge front skid on a 13 jkur with xhd front bumper? And did it just bolt on or did you have to drill, cut or grind on your jeep?
Thanks

 

subscribing to this. I think some people have gotten them on but needed to do some cutting of the skid.

 

Anyone?........

 

Hopefully this will be hepfull to others:

I installed one on a 2012 JKUR with the same bumper. I had to cut and grind part of the frame that juts out a little--this does not compromise the frame at all. Also, in order to seat flush I had to make to cuts and bend the 1/4 skid back in order to clear the e-disconnect motor in one spot. I used a hammer to bend it back. The bumper fit perfectly with no mods, other than relocating the pump, and the front skid is very solid after the work I did.

I just bought their engine/skid and that does not fit on stock rubis. The rubi needs a lift or the bracket rubs on the front u-joint and one hole needs reeming out to bolt to the frame......... It seems like a lot of thier stuff needs moding, but it is solid.

 

Thanks for the info..
I tried there oil and trans skid too and I sent it back it was not even close to fitting .. I like there products but they need better quality control..
And I will be very hesitant to buy there stuff in the future
