Thanks! I want to get her some skids. I don't have the resources to swap the gas tank skid, so I will most likely get the Saguaro bracket for the TC.

That's what I did. works great

All you really need to swap in the gas tank skid is some jack stands and a jack. Its really easy to do. I did mine a few years ago and actually just had the gas tank back out of it less than two weeks ago to modify the skid. The rear drive shaft was hitting it when the rear end articulated while off road.

Yeah I have to get a new gas tank skid. I'm losing a couple of gallons due to the big dent I put in a couple weeks ago, and your right its not to bad at all. My fiance got me the t case mounting bracket for a gift so I didn't worry about it.

I didnt even know there was a t-case skid mounting bracket.

If I remember correctly, it costs basically the same as ordering the upgraded gas tank.....

The quote I got for the gas tank skid was $260 shipped to my house. The bracket would be $170 shipped. It is a bit pricey.

I am working my way from front to back and will have those skids and brackets in 30 to 45 days if all goes well.

I got the gas tank skid for around $200 shipped from jparts. Prices may have gone up, but I recall it being ~$180+shipping.

I found a local Chrysler dealership that had an ebay store. They allowed me to buy the skids from them and pick them up. I think the gas tank skid was $203.
