Default Where to add skid plates for Sahara?

Hi guys,

Which skid plate areas are not covered on the Sahara 4-door wranglers compared to the Rubicon 4-door wranglers? I want to better protect my Sahara as well as possible when I do go off road, what areas should I add skid plates to? What is the price range of adding skid plates to a Sahara until it is covered as much as the Rubicon would be?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My opinion, evap can skid plate.. a nice fully surrounding one can be had for under 2 bills. Also EVO MFG makes a sweet kit that i *think* is under 600 bucks. I havent looked into it too much but some skid plating is on my to-do list once my bumpers are on.

Evap can and oil pan aren't covered by the Sahara stock skids. The stock skids cover a lot, but those are the two places where additional armor is handy.

I'm looking at this also, recommended by local 4X4 shop has been Rock Hard Skids for the JKU, So I'm looking at them, starting with the skid covering the oil pan,transmission and catalytic converter
