Difficult Freeway Ridge???

You know i've been watching all your guy's videos on here! I saw most of the Freeway Ridge ones last night. Looks pretty difficult. I don't even have skid plates

Yep, you do have skid plate. Good ones too. Your Jeep came with them. Almost all of the JKs here, including mine, are using the factory skid plates. Ive taken mine through the toughest trails in California. So do not worry about skid plates, just get that jeep a small lift and some tires. I have a 2.5" Teraflex budget boost kit, new in the box, that I can give you for very cheap - and Im sure a couple of us guys could help you install it on a Sunday if you buy the Pizza and beer. The only thing that the kit does not have is shocks, but you can get a decent set of shocks for $260 like these:
