Oil pan 10lbs
Auto Transmission 20lbs
Transmission crossmember skid 30lbs.

We built the skids as minimal as we could, to keep the weight down and make the highclearance as possible.
Do you know if the ProTek skids will work with a Rock Krawler long arm kit??

Sorry, it will not work with any long arm. The rest of the skid system will

Also, I know this has been answered somewhere in some thread but, which of the 3 skids interferes with the AFE Y-Pipe?

Hmm, so I could buy just the 2 skids, save some cash, and hold off on buying a new DS for a little bit longer....

The AFE Y-Pipe has an interference with the 2012 EVO Auto Transmission skid (manual is fine). I would suggest a driveshaft instead of relocating the exhaust. That way you keep all your emissions compliant and you get the added benefit of a stronger more durable driveshaft, being the stock driveshaft is already known to fail as it is.



The EVO Protek Oil and Transmission skids work with ALL lift kits. The Protek Exhaust skid (3rd part of the full Protek Kit) will not work with long arm kits. So if you have a long arm kit, order the Oil Pan and Tranny skids (manual or auto) separately.

Sweet, gotcha. Waiting till I have cash for a new J.E. Reel 1310 DS to pull the AFE pipe.
Thinking I will go with the oil pan and trans skids then
