Next Venture Motorsports Belly Skid Plates; Bare Aluminum (21-25 Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon 392 w/ Stamped Steel Oil Pan)Find parts that fit my vehicle

Description. Please make sure you purchase the correct Skid Plates for your 392 Hemi Jeep Wrangler has. Jeep changed the design in Mid-September in production, and switched from a cast aluminum style oil pan in early production to a stamped steel oil pan in later production. While the early style skid will bolt up underneath either version, the drain plug has moved.

Want to be ready for any trail, any time? Skid plates provide advanced protection for your JL's most critical components -- your engine, transmission, transfer case, DEF tank, and fuel tank -- while you're tackling tough terrain, technical obstacles, and of course for the ride home.

When you're looking to save weight, given the added protection these skids offer over factory pieces, full belly skids become the largest piece of real estate to consider on or under your Jeep.

PRODUCT DETAILS. Next Venture Motorsports build these skids out of 1/4" thick 5052 Aluminum because of its superior formability and strength -- compared to many other alloys. The design and shape of the skids largely determine how rigid they will stay over time. We've designed these belly skids to tuck bolt heads up and out of the way, where possible (as can be seen on the rear crossmember and fuel tank skids).

Removal of the factory gas tank skid is required and nets you a 3/4" gain in ground clearance; in addition, you also lose the weight of the factory steel gas tank skid and some of the other steel underbody protection that is replaced with this system. The weight of our system is 125 lbs however the total weight gain is offset by the removal of the factory steel gas tank skid etc as mentioned above.

Next Venture Motorsports also designed these pieces with compatibility in mind for popular aftermarket suspension kits (such as the Rock Krawler Long Arm Suspension), larger axles, and multiple engine choices. Please note that exhaust modifications may be required on Factory 392 Hemi Jeeps for some specific long arm kits. Please talk to your suspension manufacturer about 392 specific compatibility issues!
