I'll have to look it up. There was a place selling XJ uni-rail skids/reenforcements. They didn't loose much clearance at all. Looked kinda sweet.
Or you could just build a box frame, bolt the drivetrain to that, then bolt the XJ uni-shell to the frame. Instant body lift  Jason  1997 TJ 4.0L AW4 D44/Super 8.8 35x12.5 KM2, Onboard Air Gen II AiRock/Longarms PRR Inc, Because rocks can't drive |

1/4 in is a little overkill don't ya think, 3/16th is plenty

My XJ is already heavy enough with the exo cage....feels like Im pulling a trailer everywhere I go now!  ------------------------------ 93 YJ, 35" MT/Rs, 5.5" lift, HP D44 front, D44 rear, 4:1 tera low, locked, geared, dented and scarred.06 Ranger 4x4. |

I got the 1/4 cheap! OK OK It was left over from another project, so it was free! With the price of steel the way it is right now I couldn't pass it up.
