Question 2012 CRD JK exhaust issue

Hi all,

Just wondering if someone has a solution for the 11-12 JK (CRD) exhaust ground clearance issue (look at the picture to understand what I mean).
Is there an aftermarket skid plate available (very hard to find skid plates for CRD)?
How did you solved this issue ?

Any help would be much appreciated.

I took mine off ;0) I really must extend the tail pipe one day. And it is actually barely noticeable noise wise.

That is jut the exhaust pipe doing it's secondary job of protecting the factory cardboard transmission crossmember!



And yes, it looks like the DPF or something else is helping out as well? I don't have a CRD, but that does look a bit low...

Nice and clean though!

From where did you took it off? Could you send me a picture ?
Isn't it bad for engine performances?
