Skids/armor-options
Ok here is what I know about the armor/protection situation so far.
1.There are a few options for rocker protection. I have a rubi and would like to keep the factory rocker rails. I have looked at purejeep and they have body mounted skidz that looks like they would allow me to keep my stockers. Any other suggestions (could get customs made I guess).
2. Engine/transmission/transfer case protection. Skid Row has one(engine/transmission) coming out next week. Nth Degree Mobility---any word on this (checked their website and nothing new). Jeep Medic---I haven't heard or read anything. 33 engineering---Heard nothing.
3. Seen that mopar and AEV have steering box, front end protection.
4. I am also interested in weld on LCA protection, but havent seen any.
5. Diff protection. I have some Rockcrusher Dana 44 covers that I got for my TJ Rubi, but never installed. Would these still work? Also Nth Degree is supposedly working on some sliders.
Have I left anything out? Oh, yeah, plan on relocating the muffler. Any ideas would be appreciated.

As far as the "LCD Skids", he just completed the prototype and they should be out very soon along with the "Rock Guards", and "Front Skid". If you want more info in regards to any JK Armor I suggest you contact them at

They are pretty expensive though, seems like it wouldn't be too hard to fab up your self
