i still recommend logan steel in meriden, they're great to deal with, resonable, and they'll sell ya anything from 24 gauge to 2" thick.

Steve, Let me know where you end up getting your steel from.  My 1" body lift is already here, and my 1" MML should be here tomorrow.  After I locate/ install a 97-99 TJ head pipe, I will be looking to make a Belly skid and an engine skid.  Are you going to mount the tranny to the skid like the stock one, or are you going to make a separate mount that bolts to the frame using bushings?  I am leaning towards making a separate mount so I can ditch the stock tranny mount and so when I drop the skid I don't have to support the tranny/transmission. 

I am also going to need some steel for a gas tank skid, but I might try to find a stock skid, and double it up like in JP mag.  The one difference I am going to make, is to lift the tank 1" since I will have the room with the body lift.  I found out the hard way at BTC, every inch of clearance helps.
