Need Help Locating a Part for My Jeep
I have a 1992 Jeep Wrangler with a 15-gallon gas tank. I've had the jeep in
a garage due to a leaking fuel line and they also told me my Fuel Tank Skid
Plate needs replacing as it's rusting through but they cannot find a
replacement and have been told that part is no longer made.
I even tried calling up Quadratec since their Spring 2005 catalog had what I
needed but even they told me the part was discontinued.
Does anybody know where I could check to possibly locate what I need?

Re: Need Help Locating a Part for My Jeep
I ordered a replacement skid plate for my 87 YJ from rubicon4x4.com.
What the shipped me was a skid plate cover. My mechanic told me this after
he had spend a few hours cutting it to fit.
If you order from them, get a live person and make sure what you get is a
replacement plate, not a cover.

Re: Need Help Locating a Part for My Jeep
If you have to, you could get a replacement fabricated locally. It is
nothing more nor less than a big piece of sheet metal. A recycling yard
would probably have a serviceable part too. These guys are good.
http://www.gemini-sales.com/ If you live in the rust belt, which it sounds
like you might, avoid rust belt recycling yards.
By the way, the 15-gallon tank is actually a 20-gallon tank, with a longer
vent tube that prevents complete fill up. It is easily removed.

Re: Need Help Locating a Part for My Jeep
Explain this a little more
"By the way, the 15-gallon tank is actually a 20-gallon tank, with a longer
vent tube that prevents complete fill up. It is easily removed"
Isn't the 15 gallon tank narrower than the 20? Seems like when you look at
the rear of the jeep you can see that the 15 gallon tank has a few inches of
extra room on the sides than the 20. Am I missing something here?
