Heavy-Duty Steel Design Offers Extra Protection for JKs
Suwanee, Ga. (August 21, 2013) – Rugged Ridge®, a leading manufacturer of high-quality Jeep accessories, today announced the availability of its complete line of undercarriage Skid Plates for 2007-2013 Jeep JK Wrangler.
Engineered to protect the most vulnerable areas of a Jeep’s underside, the Rugged Ridge Skid Plates shield eight major exposed mechanical components: steering, differentials, transfer case, engine, transmission, suspension arms, air conditioning and muffler. A simple bolt-on installation, the Skid Plates are an easy way to help prevent expensive damage from off-road obstacles.
Each Skid Plate is constructed of 3/16-inch heavy-duty steel and comes standard with both a durable black powder coat and rust-resistant E-coating. The frame mount design utilizes existing factory bolt holes and incorporates special gussets and fully-welded brackets, making them tough enough to withstand anything on the trail.
“Jeep has offered some form of undercarriage protection on the Wrangler for years, but far too many off-roaders have found out that on the trail, it’s not nearly enough.” said Henk Van Dongen, Director of Marketing at Omix-ADA. “We created our line of Skid Plates so Jeep owners can go wheeling without having to learn the hard way about the expensive parts underneath their vehicle.”
Rugged Ridge ’07-‘13 Jeep JK Wrangler Skid Plates are available onlineand through select Jeep and off-road parts/accessories retailers nationwide starting at $69.99 MSRP.
