The standard steering skid isn't particularly good - I bent mine, so it came off. If you have 3" or more of lift, I wouldn't bother. Sump guards are not fitted on any XJ. Never heard of anyone having problems. If you have no transfer case or fuel tank skids, they're worth getting.

nothing wrong with a stock Mopar steering guard, i have never bent mine & i have a reputation for being less than gentle with my XJ!!!!!

same goes for the stock Mopar transfer case skid & fuel tank skid.........

I have all of the above on the shelf here.......2nd hand of course!!!!

I have had a Rustys engine & gearbox skid in the workshop for over a year, havent got around to fitting it yet & cant say I have ever wished I had it on.......
