High-StrengthAll versions are made from High-Strength Steel and feature a rolled front lip design that is braced against the frame for maximum strength. For those wanting maximum strength we also offer a Heavy Duty version (270% stronger than our Standard version).
Simplified Bushing SystemOur simplified bushing system provides protection from creaking, while simplifying the install process to help reduce installation mistakes by service departments.
Compatible With Mopar Skid PlatesEngineered to integrate perfectly with the Mopar Front Axle Skid Plate. Whether your WK2 came from Jeep with the Off-Road Adventure Pack II or you decided to add the Mopar skid plates afterward, our WK2 Sump Protection Plate is designed to integrate perfectly and provide a smooth undercarriage.
Compatible With Our Entire Product LineAlready own our WK2 Lower Front Guard, WK2 Recovery Hooks, WK2 Recovery Points, WK2 Nudge Bar, WK2 Transmission Protection Plate, WK2 Hidden Winch Mount or WK2 Off-Road Front Bumper? We’ve designed the WK2 Sump Protection Plate to integrate perfectly with all of our products.
Ease Of UseOur Access Panel version makes it extremely easy to service your 5.7L V8 WK2.
Easy To InstallWe provide easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. If you're half-way decent with a wrench you can easily install this yourself.
Industry Leading Corrosion ProtectionWe utilise E-Coat (Electrophoretic Coating) to provide the very highest corrosion protection available for steel automotive parts. Deposited from a water-based solution using a high voltage DC charge, the process coats all wet surfaces with an extremely tough and highly corrosion resistant finish that is unlike any other process. On top of that industry-leading electrophoretic coating we apply 80µm of extremely durable powder coat (advanced polyester thermosetting powder). Finally, whenever possible we build our products with highly corrosion resistant materials and fasteners (stainless steel, aluminium alloys, etc.) to provide enduring protection against corrosion when a coating is scratched or damaged off-road.
Bolt Head ProtectionOur Bolt Head Protectors are engineered to keep critical bolt heads protected from off-road obstacles. They feature a slotted design that keys directly into the product with no possibility of spinning or moving when hit off-road.
Real World TestingThere aren’t many off-road companies who own a WK2 as their daily driver, or regularly take it all over Australia in search of off-road adventures. In our opinion, that extra testing and passionate attention to performance leads to superior products.
Top Quality Finishing TouchesWe include all the details that matter. High tensile zinc plated bolts for maximum strength and corrosion resistance. Wedge-Lock washers to create bolted joints that are extremely resistant to loosening. Anti-Seize for bolted joints that are resistant to seizing. A Chief Products Shop Rag for all the dirty jobs around the garage. All packaged with extreme care to arrive safely and looking great. -

Most industry protection-skid-bash plates are bolted to the vehicle metal-to-metal (metal plate bolted to a metal frame member). The paint on each of these parts provides a barrier, but over a prolonged period the paint barrier can wear through creating direct metal-to-metal contact. This metal-to-metal contact can produce creaking sounds. For occasional off-roaders this often isn't a problem, since there isn't enough rubbing during normal driving to wear through the paint barrier. For more adventurous off-roaders who take long trips over corrugations or regularly perform off-roading that causes significant chassis flex, we found (during our in-the-field testing) that creaking can develop after 1-2 years. While most in the industry ignore this problem, (it often occurs outside of the warranty period) we decided to engineer a solution.
NOTE - All of our new WK2 Sump Protection Plates (sold after February 2016) are designed to avoid the creaking issue, so this kit is not needed. We offer this kit (at our cost) as a convenience for customers with older versions of our WK2 Sump Protection Plate.

In rare cases you may need to elongate the rear mounting holes on your WK2 Sump Protection Plate for these bushings to fit correctly.
