Skid Plates for a 2009 WH, anybody got them to sell ?

[chrisk]

Hi All,
I am looking to add skid plates to my WH to replace the crappy plastic ones that come standard. Just wondering if anybody out there has some to sell or may know of some one that maybe making aftermarket ones. If you do I'd be eager to hear from you.

ChrisK - only 1 guy to go to for serious custom skid plates for the WH - that's CRDSTU. Search for him on this Forum. Check 'em out on my WH (pic attached). Note the plates he did for my WH CRD are designed to be flush with an ARB bar.

D'uh - trying to post pic again. How d'ya post 'em full size, rather than thumbnails? Hmmm - forum won't let me re-load 'em - so here's the link to the originally posted pic:

Can I ask approx cost of skid plates? Did you get one on the fuel tank also?

$495 installed for custom plates that extend from bullbar to (separate) transfer case plate. Then an additional $645 installed for Mopar transfer case and fuel tank skid plates (no point in going custom for those).

CRDSTU is also developing rock rails - though I got 4XGuard rails shipped from the U.S., just for timing reasons. Only just installed those and no pics yet - but geez they are sweet. See here: http://www.4xguard.com/Other/Side%20...20Gallery.html

They replace the plastic sill trim and actually increase clearance, while obviously giving solid protection and HiLift jacking points. You can even step on them to get roof basket access - though they do not bulge from the sides of the vehicle like steps you'd see on a 'Cuiser. The CRDSTU product will be much less expensive than the U.S. shipping option I chose - and Stu's design and fabrication is always quality.

Hi chrisk,
Seeing as you are in Melbourne, go and see the boys at Brown Davis, in the Bayswater area, they will custom make some for you. They quoted me around $400 from front ARB bar to back of transfer case. High quality mob with a good reputation.

does anyone know who'd make them in Sydney? That's a complete set; front, belly, rear.
