eVo MFG ProTek Skid System - [ Ссылка ]

A Good skid system is really important if you are going to do any mild to serious wheeling. The Jeep Wrangler JK’s all come with skid plates. They are designed to be taken off road. However, Jeep didn’t give you the best of skid systems if you really want to do some rock krawling.

So looking around we found that the eVo MFG Protek Skid System is affordable at $399, weighs only about 57 lbs extra from what your current skid plates are and provides all the protection needed from oil pan to transfer case.

First and foremost; this install requires that you get under the jeep. Please take safety very seriously here and do everything you can to keep the jeep from moving. It is highly recommended that you put it in 4-wheel drive, lock the E Brake and put chocks behind the tires. It is not required to lift the jeep but is helpful. If you do lift, make sure that your setting it on jack stands that can withstand the weight of the jeep.
While doing the install we found that the oil pan and transfer case skid plates are super easy; especially if you have a air wrench like we do. The hardest part is the bolts to the transmission skid plate which might be one of the most important due to the exposed transmission cooling line. To get to these bolts; it requires a wrench that is the correct length and some muscle. Jeep doesn’t want the transfer case coming off the plate, so they are on extremely tight. It took us several hours of attempts but going into it now knowing what we did and prepared; I don’t think it would be so hard. The problem was being that not many people have done this section of the skid plate so we were fully going off what eVo provided and unfortunately this is where the instructions need some help.

After we got the nuts off; just slide the plate through the transfer case plate and set the transmission skid plate on top of the threads then put the bolts back on that you just spent hours trying to get off. Evo MFG provides all the required nuts and bolts.
