    Quick search says 93-99 Trooper.

    And FYI...the "front one" ..at the area nearest the front of the drive shaft...
    ...has been known to bend and make contact with shaft/flange.

    A quick trim with a grinder solves this issue.

    The "front" one is pretty worthless IMO, too thin to do much, and easily gets pushed up into the front driveshaft, making a truly glorious noise. I didn't even have mine on for the trip to Moab, that's how important I think it is. The transfer case and catalytic converter skids are much thicker and do a decent job, but being supported on 3 corners the way they are they can't hold up to serious bashing, as proven in my RS Trooper.

    The Kilbys are in a whole 'nother league, as seen above.
    95 Trooper with a buncha stuff nobody here cares about...
