First time out and I put a dent in the oil pan. Skid plates on order then I’ll be back out.

Check out Mountain Offroad

I got a full engine skid for my TJ from them. Much better than just an oil pan skid that mounts to the engine. They engineer some really solid products that provide great protection.

Even with a full engine skid I managed to damage an oil pan when a 3-4 inch diameter log came up between a control arm and the skid. Just plain bad luck with it exactly the right length and angle to make it there.
