Being a 4x4 you can't really do the full bellypan, but there's lots of stuff down there you could still cover over - the big space between the frame rails and the bottom of the body panels, for instance. You could also move the spare to the bed, cover it with a sleek tonneau like Aerohead's and do a full pan to cover where the spare was.

Add skirts to the back wheels, too. Pouch them out to fit around the tires if you have to, but it's worth the effort IMHO.
