Warn TJ Gas Tank Skid Plate
 

Anyone know why Warn is replacing TJ gas tank skid plates? They contacted
me and were in a big hurry to replace it - at their cost. Only a mysterious
explanation given.

I don't know but keep us informed -- I was going to buy one soon.

Re: Warn TJ Gas Tank Skid Plate
 

I believe it's due to a lack of clearance between a key area of the gas
tank at the bottom and the skidplate. Warn's skidplate was missing a
key indentation that would provide that required clearance. In other
words, Warn's skidplate can potentially damage the fuel tank and
possibly cause it to fail.
