Does anyone here have a home made flat skid for there trans/t-case on there YJ? Mine is already clocked up, need to build a flat mount. Have any pics that u have made, Let me see for some ideas.
Thanks in advance.
 
I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but thought I'd post up pics of my skids to see if it helped? It's not a YJ but rather an XJ. Good excuse to show off my skids again. :p

I can't view the pics at work, but I am refering to the the trans mount on a yj. I want to be flat from frame rail to frame rail. I have sliders that I made out of 4" by 6" angle and 2" box tube. I guess I should say to give it a tummy tuck.
 
mine: 1/4" with 1/8" angle gussets. did a seperate xmember out of .120 wall 1.75" tube and reused the original mount from the stock xmember on my tj.

Sorry for the Hijack


But that helps me out, Got anyome pictures of the skid its self.

Edit: Never mind I fixed the first pic which is what I needed thanks.

What are running BL and MML? Got a Build Thread?
 
Very nice cltdba on a XJ. JC yours is over kill for me, looks like it can take a beatting though. I like yours, Getstucksome. Do u like the mounting tube style or do u wish u had stayed with a stock type center mount bushing on the trans? Does it make any more or less vibs with bushings on the frame end mount?
 
I have more vibes with the poly bushings, but that was a given. I have a 2 inch body lift and 1 inch motor mount lift. I would do it the same way again if I had to. I have a build thread (I guess a couple different threads) on www.webwheeling.com, same user name.
 
Thanks for the info. Mine is still on the road more than the trails but when I play I play hard. I have a 208 case in it now but it is huge, got a 231 with a sye on it to go back in it. It will still be clocked flat, just want to get all the clerance i can get.
