    I know they share a bolt(s) but nothing I have read states you need one to have the other. I could be wrong though.

    You need the upgraded fuel tank skid to mount the OEM TC skid. Or you can go get a saguaro TC skid and mounting bracket. So if your ordering the OEM skids then you wouldn't have the correct fuel tank skid so your TC skid won't work so need to order the fuel tank skid as well.

    I test fitted the ASFIR skid today and it comes with the mounting bracket (I did not need it since I have the aftermarket fuel tank skid), they did not let me keep the bracket. I can add it to my list of projects if you cannot find one someplace.

    I will not buy the oem gas tank skid! I would buy the saguaro or the asfir so I won't have to drop the tank! The asfir front skid looks nice too! But I just bought the stock front one for now!

    Well the TC and Fuel tank arent that much cheaper then the aftermarket setups and you don't have to drop the tank PITA. Also the OEM skids are pretty crappy IMO as well. I'll be dumping my skids this next summer I'm sure I don't think they can take another full season of wheeling

    I've already paid for the two others so it's too late. They should be good though, I probably won't do as much wheeling as you.
