PRODUCT DETAILS

Enhance the strength and durability of your Cherokee's frame with these laser cut and formed steel frame plates. Made from 1/8" steel, these frame plates extend from the leaf spring mounts to the end of the unibody, capturing all of the unibody hitch holes. These frame plates are not only a great way to strengthen your Cherokee, but they are also great for rust repair.

Installation of these frame plates requires welding. These frame plates are proudly made in the USA and are a high-quality choice for those looking to improve their Cherokee's frame.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS

Do the Right Thing Pt 2

Couldn't figure out how to add Pass Side Stiffener work to previous review so posted this additional review. The pic associated with this one shows Pass Side Stiffener welded with weld locations seam sealed prior to using Eastwoods xtreme Platinum product (4 hr flash time) But needed to wait 48 hours to fully cure before next step. After 48 hr cure, used Eastwoods xtreme Chassis Black, 2 coats (15min flash time).
And Finally will rubberize.

The right thing to do

Any Salt Belt driven xj will benefit from rust mitigation. This frame stiffener is just what my auto body technician needed. The most common issue seen in the review pictures (seen here and elsewhere like naxja and jeepforum) is a rusted out Fuel Hose Frame Pass-Thru (if that's what they call it). Luckily, only the oval shield insert on the Fuel Hose Frame Pass-Thru needed to be re-fabricated. Frame steel good but stiffener's definitely needed. Opted against using Dirtbound's custom Leaf Spring plate that relocates axle snubber but had to deal with a broken snubber bolt (re-drilled and tapped) so had to enlarge stiffener relief hole for that snubber bolt. (will post pass side soon)

Stiffer..

Received but not installed

Can't review yet. Haven't installed yet

from auto repair shop

excellent quality! manufacturing and shipping took longer than expected however was worth the wait

Good quality steel, great customer service, couldn’t be happier.

I purchased these to put on following some major unibody rehab on my 01 XJ. These fit the frame shape well and look nice and heavy duty.

i did have to widen the very rear 7 vertical plug weld slots by drilling a couple holes in a row up the slot. Not a huge deal but I feel 3/8 wide would be perfect.

Love the product was In awesome shipping box packaging really good. It was a bummer there was no instructions and for spending a few hundred dollars not to get any awesome stickers or a hat or t shirt was a little disappointing

Awesome product. Chose your company after watching several installs on YouTube.

Fit and worked good my jeep didn’t have a rear frame left or a shackle mount, these added enough strength to buid my new frame and connect it up to a solid frame
