Rokmen's Engine/tranny skid and belly skid. I love it. And I've used it many times already.




Side shot:


Putting it to good use:


And here you can see that it also aids in recovery when stuck in some real thick mud, as it lets you slide on top of the mud as you're being pulled out.

Sorry for the stupid question, but do you have to have a tummy tuck in order to use the Rokmen or similar brand?

I would like to get rid of my shovel in the future.

This is a continue from my post before to you, John. Isn't the skid row engine skid made to go with the stock t-case skid? Did you do any mods to the skid to get it flush with the Rokmen TT?

Rusty's makes an engine skid similar to the skid row's, and i'm wondering if I get that, if I'll be able to mount it flush with the TT.

You have to drill a couple new holes in the Rokmen TT Skid to bolt the Skid Row to it.
There are 3 holes in the Skid Row, but you cant use the center one, cuz there is no way to get the nut on, the tranny is in the way.
Maybe if you bolted them together before putting them on the jeep?

Then the slotted hole in the front of the Skid Row that the control arm bolt goes through, just needs slotted a bit more,
so that you can slide the Skid Row back just a bit more.

The Skid Row barely overlaps the Rokmen, and the holes you drill in is are Right on the edge, but it works and I have had no problems.

I did manage to bow the Skid Row up an inch or so,
I was in a Crawl 4 Kids event, went over a pile of logs obstacle, Slamming down on it.
Its still fine though,,,, I just have more clearance now LOL
