JL Skid Plates

 A selling feature of the JL is also a hint at a major flaw: the suspension capabilities and increase fender flare clearance require less lift to increase tire size. This means wheelers can install larger tires and tackle tougher trails without having to install a traditional suspension lift kit. Less lift means more dragging your undercarriage and drivetrain all over the rocks.

Belly-Pan Design

To help you make it to the end of the trail, Rock Hard 4x4's offering their most comprehensive and largest skid plate system they've ever designed. This is a true "belly pan" system that protects all your vital drivetrain components. The new JL 8-speed transmission drives fantastic, but is very long and pushes your drivetrain further back underneath your rig. To protect your transmission and transfer case, they had to increase the size of their skid plates. This is where their "belly pan" design gets to work. From frame rail to frame rail and oil pan to exhaust resonator, RH4x4's design is comprehensive and complete.

Dual Crossmembers

Jeep had a brilliant idea to make the JL frame rails out of a new harder material, but trail testing has exposed a major flaw: thinner walls but stronger material twists! Early in 2018's Easter Jeep Safari exposed major flexing and twisting in rigs coming back off their day's runs. To prevent this plus strengthen their larger skid plates, they include 2 new 1" by 2" thick steel crossmembers. These CNC machined crossmembers extend from driver to passenger side frame rails and not only give their skid plates the foundation they need to protect your drivetrain, but also take twist and flex out of your frame.
