definitely put some sort of plate on the middles anyway. I dented mine up just going through some easy trails when I was on 33's
frame plates are a huge pain to fit once you dent your frame
and I'd still recommend an aftermarket track bar brace and double shear track bar if you plan on doing any offroading. your jeep will thank you later

Yeah the plans for any mods from here are rear axle, discs, some frame plating, a new track bar, and tie rod assembly. Being unemployed right now doesn't help that though. Ha.

maybe a tad bit. but they'll really help out if you do something like the 2x6 rocker mod. rockers welded to the body then tied into the frame (which should be plated first) will really make a difference

Thanks for all the feedback guys! Also was wondering if this would add much support?
