I am a bit worried about the components under the truck such as oil tank gas thank mufflers ect...

What do you recommend to protect these important areas of the truck. I'm running 31's and I measured I clear over 11 inches all stock.

But I use this car everyday and wheel most weekends...

Then next what is the best and cheapest locker set up?

I want to do both lockers in the back and under carriage protection. I have the stock skid plate but is this enough???

What do I need and how much will these modifications run me???

Bra did you read the newbie mod thread? It answers some if not all of these questions. As far as cheap/good locker, go to the offroad section and read the locker sticky. Popular is the aussie/lockrite in the rear and ARB in the front. Although the ARB isn't cheap like the aussie, its nice for those who DD their rigs.

best <> cheapest

aussie is cheap and seems to hold up well. ARB is $$$ but nice.
The stock skid plates are ok as long as you are not beating the hell out of it.
The muffler is pretty durable also.
Upgrading to stronger plates are nice, but if you drive careful and get out and look under the truck in the hard spots you should be ok.
The auto lockers are a little temperamental http://www.gentryoffroad.com/php/gen...view/lockrite/

you won't be able to protect everything, some stuff is gonna be banged up, just the nature of the hobby

oh and I remember when i thought 31's were great for ground clearance
