- Today we finally finish the "belly up" or "flat belly" modification on our project Jeep by installing a flat skid plate from Barnes 4wd. To see the first part of this modification where we built a custom crossmember to support the transmission follow this link: • Transmission CROSSMEMB...

Been watching this series from the beginning. Love the build and keep it up man!
Thanks for following along!
Just wanted to say thanks for the videos. I got a lot out of the V8 swap videos. Just got my 5.2 44re going from a 2.5 ax5 in my 98 wrangler. I know the intended crossmember was for the swap at first but it still help my plans for the heavier V8 auto even though you used it on the budget crawler. You videos are appreciated. Thanks!
Thanks man. I installed a Teraflex belly up skid on the V8 jeep, and with a 1.25” body lift and the 44re/Nv241 transfer case I wouldn’t have been able to get away with a flat skid without taking a sledge hammer to the bottom of the tub. There was just enough clearance between the the drivetrain and the tub with the teraflex skid that I didn’t have to make any modifications. If you’re using a 231 transfer case you may have better luck with a flat skid.
I like the way you do your mods. I would like to see you get out wheeling.
Thanks! Its only been out on some mild local trails so far. Wheeling vids will come eventually. Not sure how good the wheeling vids will be though since I'm a one man show.
Now everytime I walk into my garage I peek at my stock skid and cringe.
Every time I look at my flat skid I think about how much time went into making it happen that I'll never get back LOL. Savvy aluminum under armor would have been a much easier option (except they don't make a 4 cyl version).
Great video as usual.
Thanks!
Great vid, loved this series
Thanks for following along, plenty more to come!
I have the Barnes 2" drop on my CJ . And I clocked the Dana 300. Great product.
Cool! Honestly felt like I paid a little too much for a flat piece of steel. Price would have seemed a little more justified for the 2" drop version since it has a few more bends.
@@dironaa I also built a custom engine skid that connects to it with a pair of clevis pins. It pivots on a piece of DOM tubing . Just pull the pins drop one end and then full access to change oil. Super easy , just some steel and a welder
I like that idea! I may eventually have to do something similar.
This tj has came along really good keep up the work man great videos
It has! Still has a way to go before it's where I'd like it. Thanks for following along!
I just rewatched ur last video yesterday wondering when you would post another
Thanks to stay at home orders I've finally had a little free time to do some editing!
love the vids i got me a project yj to make a crawler
Cool! Don't see many YJ builds these days. Have fun with it!
Oh sick, so you just made your own cross member and put this on then?
Yes, I have another video showing how I made it if you take a look on the channel
Take it wheeling
It will be on the trails when mud season is over
What SYE did you use??
Teraflex extreme short shaft kit. Don’t know that I’d recommend it if you like having a speedometer though. These use an optical speed sensor that commonly fails in a short period of time. My speedo worked intermittently for a while and eventually stopped working altogether. But if you don’t care about that and want to maximize driveshaft length it’s a great component.
160 seems like a deal..
That’s why I bought it!
How does this effect rear drive shaft angle? How did you over come it?
It increased the rear driveshaft angle to the point where it started to bind, to fix it I installed a double cardan shaft. For more info check out the link in the pinned comment of this video
guessing you need a body lift to install this, right?
Yes. I have a 1.25" body lift and custom transmission crossmember. You can find videos covering both on my channel.
Love the build but not crazy about how “rigged” some of the equipment is
Care to elaborate?
This is only good for no lift tho right?
You can do it with a small lift too, but you might run into issues with the rear driveshaft angle if you have a big lift
@@dironaa ok thank you for the knowledge
Hot
True that
