The spacer and hardware set that drops the TeraFlex TJ HD Gas Tank Skid Plate (kit 4940071) to the correct height when the Jeep is not on a 1 inch body lift. It lets the skid plate sit properly below the factory gas tank.

Why it works

The HD gas tank skid plate is meant to hang below the factory tank. Without a 1 inch body lift, it needs extra drop to clear the tank, and this kit supplies it. TeraFlex notes the arrangement adds ground clearance over the tank.

  • Spacers and mounting hardware in one kit
  • Required for the 4940071 skid plate without a 1 inch body lift
  • Skid plate itself not included

Fitment

Listed for the 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ, as an add-on for the TeraFlex TJ HD Gas Tank Skid Plate Kit (4940071).

In the box

All the hardware needed to mount the skid plate below the factory gas tank. The skid plate is sold separately.

Install notes

Required whenever the 4940071 skid plate kit is installed without a 1 inch body lift kit. TeraFlex part number 4970400.
