JKSOGS116
Overview:
The JKS Manufacturing Mini Control Arm Skid Plates provide essential protection for the front axle lower control arms on Jeep Wrangler and Grand Cherokee models. Designed to fit a wide range of Jeep Wranglers from 2007 to 2018 and Grand Cherokees from 2005 to 2010, these skid plates are engineered to safeguard your vehicle’s suspension components from damage caused by off-road obstacles and rough terrain. Ideal for Jeep enthusiasts who demand durability and reliability, the MiniSkids enhance the strength of factory suspension brackets while maintaining a low-profile design that won’t interfere with vehicle clearance or control arm movement.
Whether you are running factory control arms or upgraded aftermarket components, these skid plates offer a robust solution to protect your investment and improve the longevity of your suspension system.
Key Features:
Built to deliver superior protection and strength, the JKS Mini Control Arm Skid Plates include the following features:
- Constructed from heavy-duty 1/4" steel plate for maximum durability
- Low-profile design minimizes added bulk while providing comprehensive coverage
- Folded steel construction enhances rigidity and ensures proper bushing clearance
- Welds directly to the original equipment (OE) bracket on the axle housing for a secure, permanent fit
- Protects the OE lower suspension arm brackets from impacts and abrasion
- Creates a boxed structure by spanning the OE bracket, significantly increasing bracket strength
- Compatible with both factory and aftermarket lower control arms
- Designed specifically for the front axle of Jeep JK models and select Grand Cherokees
Construction & Design:
The Mini Control Arm Skid Plates are fabricated from premium 1/4" steel plate, chosen for its excellent balance of strength and toughness. The steel is carefully folded to add structural rigidity and to maintain the necessary clearance for suspension bushings, ensuring no interference with normal suspension articulation. This thoughtful engineering results in a skid plate that not only protects but also reinforces the factory bracket, reducing the risk of bending or damage during off-road use.
The skid plates are designed to weld directly onto the OE axle housing bracket, creating a seamless, ultra-secure installation that integrates with the vehicle’s existing suspension architecture. This welded connection forms a strong, boxed structure that greatly enhances the durability of the lower control arm mounting points.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the JKS Mini Control Arm Skid Plates requires welding to the original axle housing bracket, providing a permanent and robust attachment. This process ensures the skid plates remain securely in place even under extreme off-road conditions. The design accommodates both factory and aftermarket control arms, making it a versatile upgrade for Jeep owners looking to improve suspension protection without compromising compatibility.
These skid plates fit a broad range of Jeep Wrangler models, including the 70th and 75th Anniversary editions, Rubicon, Sahara, Sport, Sport S, Unlimited variants, and X models spanning 2007 through 2018. They also fit Jeep Grand Cherokee models from 2005 to 2010, offering protection for multiple Jeep platforms.
What's Included:
- One pair of JKS Manufacturing Mini Control Arm Skid Plates
- Installation instructions (welding required)
Ideal For:
These skid plates are perfect for Jeep owners who frequently take their vehicles off-road and want to protect critical suspension components from rocks, debris, and rough terrain. They are especially beneficial for those running aftermarket control arms or who have experienced damage to factory suspension brackets. Whether you’re a weekend trail rider or a serious off-road enthusiast, the JKS Mini Control Arm Skid Plates provide peace of mind and enhanced durability for your Jeep’s front axle.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
