Clayton Off Road Gas Tank Skid Plate Stock Cross Member Adapter Bracket for 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK

⚠️ SHIPS BARE METAL. This is a bracket only — the gas tank skid plate (COR-4108202 or COR-4108204) must be ordered separately.

Is This for You?

• You have a stock JK cross member and want to use the Clayton gas tank skid plate (COR-4108202 or COR-4108204) as an OEM replacement without purchasing the full Clayton skid plate system — this adapter bracket connects the Clayton 2-Door (COR-4108202) or 4-Door (COR-4108204) gas tank skid plate to the factory JK stock cross member. Originally designed to connect the gas tank skid plate to the Clayton transfer case skid plate, this bracket eliminates the need to purchase the full transfer case skid plate for customers who only need a gas tank skid replacement and are not concerned with full transfer case protection.
• Your factory JK gas tank skid plate is rusted or worn out and you want a direct replacement that works with your stock cross member — order this bracket together with the correct gas tank skid plate for your JK: COR-4108202 (2-Door) or COR-4108204 (4-Door). This bracket + gas tank skid plate = a complete OEM-style gas tank skid replacement on the stock cross member.
• You want a low-cost entry point now with a clear upgrade path to the full Clayton skid plate system later — when you're ready to upgrade to the full system, add the Clayton HD cross member (COR-2108212) or 3-piece long arm cross member (COR-2108112), the transfer case skid plate (COR-4108112), and/or the engine skid plate (COR-4108912). This bracket is the starting point for the gas tank skid plate portion of the system.

The Result

• Stock cross member adapter bracket for the Clayton JK gas tank skid plate — connects COR-4108202 (2-Door) or COR-4108204 (4-Door) gas tank skid plate to the factory JK stock cross member. Bracket only — gas tank skid plate sold separately.
• Eliminates the need to purchase the full transfer case skid plate for customers who only need a gas tank skid replacement on a stock cross member JK.

The COR-4108200 is Clayton Off Road's stock cross member adapter bracket for the 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK gas tank skid plate system. This bracket connects the Clayton 2-Door gas tank skid plate (COR-4108202) or 4-Door gas tank skid plate (COR-4108204) to the factory JK stock cross member, allowing the gas tank skid plate to be used as an OEM replacement without purchasing the full Clayton transfer case skid plate or cross member system.

Engineering Question: Have you ordered the correct Clayton gas tank skid plate for your JK? This bracket requires COR-4108202 (2-Door JK) or COR-4108204 (4-Door JK Unlimited) — it does not function as a standalone product. If you're ready to upgrade to the full Clayton skid plate system, consider adding the HD cross member (COR-2108212) or 3-piece long arm cross member (COR-2108112) instead of this bracket.
