dont know if this is the right spot for this but...
JasonG:
does anyone know of a good place to get some skid plates/diff covers and such?
or better yet, do you know anyone local that can makes these (which might make them cheaper)?
thanks in advance

from the research that I've done over time, here are my top picks.
SOLID diff covers (same as what was previously ROCKCRUSHER)
33engineering belly up transfer case skid
skid-row engine/transmission skid (confirmed to work along with the 33engineering tcase skid)

http://www.badapplefab.com/ $100 for the pair powdercoated in common colors.
Skids, I would go with your budget. Something is better than nothing.
Check out the locals. You can go pick up what you bought and save on shipping, you also have a lot more say in what you get.

thanks for the info. i will check these people out!
after the run saturday, i realized my jeep in now more capable than the protection i have:)
i musta slammed my steering box at least twice (it has a decent gouge now, but still steers fine) and my gas tank 3 times:)
time to armor up!!!!!

imo, a complete diff cover replacement is a lot better than just a ring
as for local places, I've contacted a few in the past about doing skid plates, and none of them have anything pre-made that you can order and bolt on, they all seem to want to do on-vehicle fab, and let you know how much it costs after it's done. (I haven't even been able to get a rough ballpark estimate from any of the places I've contacted) That's why I suggest using somebody that already has it all fabbed out, that you can just buy and bolt on.
