Default TJM Engine Skid Plate
Has anyone tried these out? TJM Wrangler Engine Skid Plate 077STSUM36Z (07-14 Wrangler JK) - Free Shipping
I'm wondering if they might be a good middle ground between E-Autogrilles and a "brand" name. The front mounts on them look a little tougher then the E-Autogrilles front skids.

I bought this Rugged Ridge for $165 a few months back. If you watch for them they go on sale once in a while.

Anyone know how thick the stock gas tank skid plate is?

I run one and it works well. Had it out a couple weekends ago and took some pretty hard shots and held up fairly well. For the money, it can't be beat.

The stock gas tank skid is 1/16" thick and very soft.
