In preparation for the Rubicon in a week, I worked on my belly protection. I put together a pretty nice skid plate yesterday, and it seems to be pretty beefy. Time will tell I guess. It is only out of 3/16" material, but I had some nice bends put on the sides to make it rigid.

I can still get to the oil pan drain plug.
Cut a couple holes out to let the heat from the exhaust dissipate.

Fixed up the tires today

Did a little touch up work to the tires. Not completely done, but you get the idea.
