JLU DEF SKID - 4 door 3.0L Diesel ALUMINUM

The 3.0L EcoDiesel Wrangler carries a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank that sits low and vulnerable on the trail. The Artec DEF Skid armors it with 1/4-inch 6061-T6 heat-treated aluminum and serves as the companion piece to Artec's diesel exhaust and fuel tank skids, completing underbody coverage for the JLU EcoDiesel.

Key Features

• 1/4" 6061-T6 heat-treated aluminum skid plate
• Zinc-plated steel mounting brackets for corrosion resistance
• Custom countersunk bolts that match the OEM thread for a clean, flush fit
• No-overlap skid design so panels sit flush without stacking
