The JLU Aluminum Rear Exhaust Skid — 392 Hemi is engineered specifically for the factory V8 392 Wrangler, protecting the rear exhaust where it’s most vulnerable: at the departure angle. If you’re dropping off ledges or running steep descents, this skid keeps your exhaust safe so your “fun button” stays fully functional.
Product Details
Built from 1/4" thick 5052 aluminum, this skid offers superior formability and long‑term rigidity compared to other alloys. Its shape is engineered to maintain strength over repeated impacts, and bolt heads are tucked up and out of the way to reduce snag points—similar to the design approach used in full belly skid systems.
Aluminum is the ideal material when weight savings matter, especially on larger skid assemblies. This rear exhaust skid provides essential protection without adding unnecessary mass, making it a smart upgrade for 392 owners who want durability without sacrificing performance.
