Please read Information below!!
This kit is intended for use on 97-02 TJ Jeep models equipped with 6cyl / Automatics only!!! For all other
models, part # 1126 will be used.
Motor mount kit Part # 1156 & 1 1/4” Body Lift Part # 1157 is needed to install this high clearance transfer
case skid plate. Failure to install these kits could result in damage to the vehicle created by lack of clearance
between the motor / transmission to the body. Rough Country insists installing these kits before the high
clearance skid plate is installed to gain clearance and avoid damage to components.
Please note if this skid plate is used with Rough Country’s Long arm kit, the skid plate will install with the
1/2” x 2 1/2” bolts supplied. If installing without the Rough Country Long arm kit, the 1/2” x 1 1/2” bolts will
be used.
Please read all the instructions before beginning the installation. Check the kit hardware against the kit contents. Be
sure you have all the needed parts and understand where they go. Also please review the tools needed list and
make sure you have needed tools. If you have any questions please call us at 800-222-7023.
