I too was looking for skids and only found the skid row plate. I finally fabricated one for the gas tank skid plate myself. The pics. suck but...

We drew it in ACAD and had it water jetted out of 3/16" steel. It attaches to the existing OE plate.
Let me know if you find anything else.

I'm in the process of making a cage to protect the evap canister and relocated muffler...starting from the transfer case factory skid and tieing into the rear crossmember just before the axle. Dunno what to do for the oil pan though, can't see a good way to tie it into the frame and if i have to mount it to the engine i'd rather just beef up the pan with 1/4 plate...

I made and have 2 of them at this point and once I get them bent up and one of them in place (to make sure i didn't F anything up I made 2) I will have an extra plate. It would probably be a little costley to ship it (I don't know the exact weight yet), but your welcome to it if you want it.
I can have them built and bent for about $300 if anyone else is interested (sorry but it ended up being a little more than I had originally thought). And if it doesn't work for you... I won't give you any grief if you want to send it back.
I will bend it up tomorrow so I should have pics of how it went and how it fits shortly there after.
Sorry to muddle up your thread with my B.S. TRYNITY
