·When I dropped my gastank for the MPI install (I had a bad tank of gas about a year ago and the previous owner abused the jeep) I found thea the skid plate had some pretty bad rust scaling on the inside of it. It appears that the rubber mat between the skid plate and the poly-tank held quite a bit of water in there and allowed it to rust up.
I am going to neutralize the rust with a spray inhibitor and then repaint the skid plate. I was thinking of drilling some holes for the water to drain out of on the bottom of the skid plate. Has anyone done this or something similar. I am also thinking of bending some flat stock tothe shape of the skid palte and then welding it on to increace the strength.
Any thoughts,
