    So when I was about to leave RC I started my XK and heard a loud grind/shaking. Matt hopped in and we discovered it was my belly guard rubbing my exhaust (must have smacked it enough on trail 22 to move it up).

    It is now getting on my nerves because it rubs anytime im on the gas. Shouldn't just (2) washers on the bolts closest to the passengers side give it enough clearance from the exhaust? or am I totally wrong and have to lower the entire thing with washers all around?

    Yup washers should be good man but depending on how much you bent it you might have to take it off and pound it back into shape.

    Yours moved up and rubbed the exhaust? I am hoping to take a drive to my step-dads this weekend to put washers in, and maybe trim the hitch bolts.

    My belly skid was bent up from RC and actually touching the exhaust. So when I stepped on the gas the exhaust was digging into the skid making a horrible noise. When your inside the Jeep it sounded like it was coming from the t case
