  • Is there a flatter T-case skid that doesn't require BL?

    As the title asks; Is there a T-skid that isn't a shovel that doesn't require a body lift? I would like to give my jeep a slimmer figure without having to go with any more lifts.

        I believe Mad Rooster on pirate is still making clocking rings for the np231. You could always try a 1" M.O.R.E motor mount lift and the chance to cut up some floorboards may show itself if you don't want to add the bl. The belly up skid from tera flex is a nice product although more times than not it does require about a inch of bl to compensate for the skid.

        Here are some possibly ideas that others fabricated. Post #36 looks interesting given its a grand cherokee and not a tj. Do you think you would be interested in possibly cutting your stock skid, plating the low areas that were cut away and skinning it with uhmw?

          Thanks, but.....

          Each one of those says I would either need a T-case drop, or BL/MML.... I'm just wondering if there is something that lets the T-case/tranny sit in the same place, but more beefy, and has some kind of beveling/angle instead of a downward facing lip so I can slide over, not capture rocks.

          I just don't want to go with a BL, and figured that someone would have made slider to directly replace the stock skid without needing any other adjustments.

            I think this is about the best youre gonna find without going with a lift of some sort. only .5" gain tho.

            at least its smooth

              Not bad.... I'll give Nica a break, but this is now on the list.
