Jeep has made some changes to the frame on the 2021, so for the front frame hole on the fuel skid and the countersunk hole on the fuel skid that bolts into the crossmember they are slightly off and will need to be ovaled out/elongated, and the crossmember will possibly contact the exhaust right before it hits the Catalytic Converter. We are currently working on a revision for both the fuel skid and crossmember, but unfortunately Jeep went and changed the frame and exhaust on us, which changes the fitment of our bellypan.
Artec Industries' NEW JL Bellypan is designed to give your 2018-2020 Jeep JLU Wrangler 2.0L Turbo full protection underneath the vehicle. Designed using CAD files directly from the manufacturer, this belly pan skid plate ensures that you have a great fit with factory components.
