Are you thinking a straight flat plate is stock? The stock location of the trans mount is about 4" below the frame rail, this skid gets the trans pushed up 2".

Not sure why anyone is talking about a drop. Site: Put the shovel to rest with Rough Country's new High Clearance Skid Plate. Made from heavy-duty quarter Inch steel, this super tough belly pan protects the underside of your vehicle from off-road hazards. With its innovative design the skid...

I ran that skid for 10+ years, it was a great skid. It raised the transmission mount up 2" from stock. It was the best skid $199 could buy back then. Didn't need a body lift and I did not raise my motor mounts on my 02TJ Sport.

Welcome, It looks like you found a gem.

⁷ It's not that difficult of a project to regear if you have the time and patience and tools. I regeared 5 years ago and remember that pressing on and off the pinion bearing and carrior bearings were the tough part for me. It was a rewarding upgrade learning how to take care of them on your...

I didn't really like these fenders when I saw them in the wild. Probably listened to the guys on this site that are all about their jeeps looks. I would not use any other fenders if I were to build another rig. I love everything about these fenders. I especially love that I can look out the side...

No cuts, it is close. I managed to keep 1/4" clearence around the transfercase. A few 1" socket impressions in a few key areas in the tub and it clears. I am also running the UFC lopro transmition mount.

Good call. except I followed a video that said to remove all 4 screws and it exploded with springs and contacts. Only the upper right T10 needs to come out to remove the ignition switch. All went in well and it fired up, problem solved. Thank you for all suggestions. Let's hope these Dorman oem...

Jerry, you got it. I thought my key turn felt a little different, I convinced myself it was because the engine was not turning over. Parts come in tomorrow, fingers crossed everything removed goes back in ok. These 20+ old clips and wires harnesses are getting sticky. Thank you guys for your...

Yes, It has an immobilizer key. Could that disable the starter? I replaced/programed a key some time back and remembered it cranking but wouldn't fire with the immobilizer not programed. The ASD relay I shuffled around with other relays with no change. I also bridged the relay along with the...

I jumped the clutch wire going to the wire harness with no luck. I opened the steering wheel neck cover. Could the keyed Ignition be the issue? How common is it that they fail? I haven't heard much about this part of the Tjs.

Crank position sensor was replaced a few thousand miles ago. I'll try just jumping the wires above the clutch. Thank you.

Is there a quick way to check if the clutch defeat switch is working or not on the 2006? Found there is no power to the starter from the small wire, I'm assuming power coming from the Ignition is half the problem.

Guys, I just returned last night from a 500 mile trip up north and had 0 problems on the road. This morning I came out and it started drove no problem. Now I'm putting it away for the night. Dash lights come on, hear the fuel pump, tested relays and fuses all good. No crank. It cranks if I jump...

The front Aussie may make it more difficult steering and reversing offroad. I use my front locker for recovery, the rear s my go to locker if needed.
