Motobilt Body Tub Armor; Bare Steel (97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ)Find parts that fit my vehicle

Durable Protection. The Motobilt Body Tub Armor; Bare Steel provides enhanced protection for the body tub of Jeep TJ and LJ models. Designed to shield the vehicle’s underbody from damage during off-road driving, the armor works in conjunction with rocker guards, extending coverage up to the lower windshield hinge bolts for comprehensive defense.

Construction and Appearance. Crafted from 3/16 inch laser cut steel plate, this body tub armor features precision counterbored mounting holes that align flawlessly with rocker guards, ensuring a clean and smooth profile. The product ships as raw steel, allowing buyers to customize its finish with paint or powder coating to prevent rust and match their vehicle’s aesthetic.

Installation. Installation requires moderate mechanical skill, involving drilling in select areas and the use of provided hardware including nut inserts for hard-to-reach locations. Users should test fit all parts prior to painting to ensure proper alignment and fitment. Longer bolts may be required if the factory antenna is replaced. Some trimming or modification might be necessary for aftermarket light bar brackets that mount to the windshield frame or for compatibility with other brand rocker guards due to a tight fit.

Application. Specifically designed to fit Jeep Wrangler TJ models from 1997 through 2006, accommodating factory antenna placement and various aftermarket accessory considerations as noted in the product details.
