I'll check some local yards next time I go to see if I can score any cheap and I'll let you know. I'm in Passaic County now but normally reside in Middlesex and know of four yards in the area.

Just to check this is the skid you're talking about, right?

Ok that shouldn't be too hard to get. Those skids were kinda flimsy anyway so you would be better off with an aftermarket one if you plan on using the skids that much.

Dependes on where you live of the rarity of the up-country pakage...personally ive only seen 3 XJ's where I live with the pakage. Also someone definetly mustve stolen them, although It'd take hours to get them off unless they had some big *** breaker bars, Sorry to hear that happened man and it seems with things only getting worse in this economy the worst in people are coming out.

sorry to hear that man, I had my jeep broken into recently twice in a week. They smashed out the vent window both times...

Thinking about makeing a sign that says "This jeep owner is a gun owner mess with it at your own risk."

i will say it seems pretty far-fetched that someone would steal them..... like stated its not a run up "fap" run off with them, its like "crank""crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" OUCH!!!! "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" FU@K!N POS!!!!!!! "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" SHHHHH............. ok nvm "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" "crank" and after about 25 mins minimum id say you could have the front one..... that cross bar your reffering too could be just the crossmember...

if he stole that then your FU@KED!!! lol, there's actually an older jeep with the up-country package at the local yard i go to.... i tried taking the front skid plate off but No Dice!!!! rounded the **** outta the nuts on the frame side, and yea those "t-case" skid plates aren't that desirable... but the thing that gets me the most is those front skids are like $25 average used price seriously wtf?????

but you could always make your own

last $0.2, i really doubt they don't have to time to pull a skid plate off the front of a cherokee at a quick oil change stop.... it would be hilarious to see someone try though
