I added the engine skid first pairing it with the stock skid. I run rocky trails on the east coast and the oil pan sits behind the axle and too low for my comfort. Also several guys I wheel with have trashed or dented their oil pans with no engine skid. It makes trail extraction a total weekend ruining situation.
An engine skid with a stock skid also helps reduce the shoveling the stock skid likes to do. Especially on the 03 to 06.
