Description

Asfir 4x4 Jeep Wrangler JL Engine & Transmission Skid Plate - 3.6L (2018+)

6mm Heavy-Duty Aluminum. No-Drill Installation. Trail-Proven Drivetrain Armor.

Maximum Underbody Defense for Your JL

The Asfir 4x4 Engine & Transmission Skid Plate is the ultimate insurance policy for your Jeep Wrangler JL. Engineered to protect the most vulnerable and expensive components of your drivetrain, this plate is laser-cut from 1/4" (6mm) high-quality aluminum.

Manufactured with precision, Asfir armor provides superior impact resistance while maintaining an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. Unlike heavy steel plates, this aluminum shield protects your oil pan and transmission without sagging your suspension or compromising your Jeep's off-road agility.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: The factory JL protection is often insufficient against jagged rocks, leading to cracked oil pans and stranded Jeeps. Steel armor is heavy and prone to rust.
The Asfir Solution: We use marine-grade aluminum and a 100% bolt-on design. Integrated stiffening ribs deflect massive hits, while precision vents prevent heat soak in your transmission.

Technical Features: Engineering Excellence

Marine-Grade Aluminum

Naturally corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy ensures your armor won't rust, even after taking deep scratches on the trail.

Zinc-Coated Brackets

Mounting brackets are heavy-duty steel with a zinc coating, providing long-term resistance to salt and environmental oxidation.

Slim Profile

Designed to hug the JL chassis tightly, ensuring minimal loss of ground clearance for superior break-over angles.

Service-Friendly

Includes a strategically placed port to allow for oil drainage without needing to remove the entire skid plate system.

Tested in the World's Harshest Deserts

Whether you are running the standard 3.6L Gas or the MHEV (Mild Hybrid) version, Asfir has tailored this plate for precision fitment. It covers the engine oil pan and the transmission casing, creating a smooth surface that lets you slide over obstacles that would otherwise snag a factory setup.

Trail Owner Feedback ★★★★★

"The install was incredibly straightforward for a bolt-on kit. I've taken several hits on the rocks in Moab, and the aluminum plate just has a few scuffs. It's much lighter than my buddy's steel plate, and it doesn't rattle. The cooling vents are a nice touch for the transmission!"

- Brandon K., JL Wrangler Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Will this fit my 2-door or 4-door Wrangler?

Yes, this skid plate is precisely engineered to fit both 2-door (SWB) and 4-door (LWB) Jeep Wrangler JL models equipped with the 3.6L engine.

+ Does the skid plate allow for easy oil changes?

Yes. We have integrated service access points that allow for engine oil drainage without having to remove the entire skid plate system.

+ What if I have a Manual Transmission model?

Manual models must have the factory manual-specific crossmember. Please check the fitment photo in the description above to verify your vehicle has the correct mounting point.

+ Is aluminum as strong as steel for skid plates?

While steel is harder, our 6mm thick aluminum is designed to absorb and deflect hits by flexing slightly rather than transferring 100% of the force to the frame. It provides a smooth sliding surface and is much better for overall vehicle dynamics.

+ How long does installation take?

Typical installation time is between 45–90 minutes with basic hand tools. No professional drilling or welding is required.

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
