So, I'm finally ready to have some fun w/my JK.

Rocking a 3" BSD lift, fox shox and 35s.

Ordered the MOPAR skid that replaces the front air dam to protect my sway bar motor...

what else should I look at protecting before hitting the trails?

I had a 04 TJ that was pretty much skidded for the whole thing... control arms, diffs, oil pan, steering box, etc etc.

I'm haven't yet spent much time under my JK.

I did like the rear slider for the diff on my TJ... I could drag the back diff across anything and not fear the cover popping off...

I see a nice fuel tank skid, but since I'm gently getting back into off roading, the OEM one might hold for now...

any others?

I have to drive my rig home at the end of the day... I don't own a trailer... (yet).

 

Engine/Oil pan, Transfer case, Evap canister (or relocate it), LCA. Really depends what kind of off-roading you plan to do.

 

unless you are doing some real big rock crawling stock skids do well. I have a 2" lift and just got back from Moab and never had a problem. I too have the Mopar front skid and it had one contact during 4 days. I felt better protecting the disc motor but no sure it was needed. proper tire placement is your best bet unless like I say are into hard core rocks.
