Looks good! Are you going to put some shackle mounts in it for extraction?
You may also want to do something in front of and under the radiator, similar to the ones I make... Your radiator is really exposed right now...

Look at the radiator skid plates and oil pan skid plates that I make, in my section... It will be much cheaper for you to have your brother make them (shipping out of the US/CA/Mexico is more expensive than the part being shipped), but they will give you guys some ideas...
You do want coverage all the way from the bumper to the back of the oil pan, but I suggest you do it in 2 pieces, and have them share the front oil pan skid plate bolts, in the front of the front suspension subframe... This way, you can loosen the 4 oil pan skid plate bolts, and slide it to the rear, to just remove the oil pan part (the 20lbs part), and not have to touch the radiator skid plate (the 65lbs part)...
The transmission has been a low priority for me to cover, as it's far above the frame rails, and it seems like you would have to be trying to hit it on something to damage it...

Very nice products! like them... definitely i will copy your oil pan skid plate and cut some tubes to protect the bolts like you did after, but i want to do something different with the radiator since i have no body lift and i want something more aerodynamic not for the air flow or gas millage, just for getting more "skid" feature... i don't now if you understand me? my english its very poor...
Thanks Mike!
like the forum very much!! good feedback i felt very welcome!

The radiator skid plates that I make are the same both with and without body lift, because they go to the frame, not the body.
Feel free to make yours however you want. This is just a design that works very well, that you are welcome to use as reference if you choose.
