Since when did i-club turn into nasioc. Raising the car is an obvious option but that's not the question OP asked.

I would do something like Stupidchicken did to his car with the under tray. Should fix the problem, next time you think your cool guy on the Internet send me a PM! I never intended to be a dick.......

Car is not crazy slammed but did break and scratch the headers, which are expensive and am frustrated by this ... did find a couple of skid plates and even instructions on how to make my own.

I always wanted a skid plate for the oil pan, never occured to me I could snap the headers, oh well, guess I need to pay more attention.

Thanks.

P.S. Headers are not stock.

FWIW, I’ve got a 2002 and a Primitive skid plate - front and rear diff cover - fits just fine. Saved my car once.

Get the thicker plate if you want good enough protection to bounce your car off a big rock and drive away.
