EVO 3 piece skids covers a lot of area and the price is not bad either.

I'm running the jcr now. It and the rock hard are nearly identical. Can't go wrong either way. The EVO are very popular but I do not like the design and the way the oilpan attached. It mounts using the oilpan bolts. The skid will protect the actual oilpan but all force is transferred through the mounting point up through the engine. Again, very popular and I'm sure I'm in the minority but I like the way mine mounts up, to unused engine mount locations and the cross member.

I'm running the ARB skid. The evap skid is included with the kit. Good coverage.

EVO Protek Skid System, along with EVO C2 Gussets, EVO Front & Rear Lower Control Arm Skids, TeraFlex F&R HD Differential Covers, and Synergy Steering Stabilizer Flip Kit.

Replacing stock skids didn't make sense, they all work just fine. And a muffler skid...really?
