When used with the Frame Mount Brackets, the 3-piece 1/4" steel skid plate creates a strong, smooth-surfaced belly pan system with built-in approach and departure angles that still provides convenient utility with easy access to the transmission & transfer case for servicing.

Hardware is recessed to keep it snag-free and is easily accessed. The center section is finished in our premium black texture powder coat.

The complete system will work with stock or aftermarket transfer cases.

The long arm skid plate center section also comes in a late model ('03 - '06).

Note: This kit requires welding at the rear axle.

Note: We recommend you have a suspension specialist align your Jeep once a MetalCloak suspension is installed.
