Put some shock spacers up front. Not sure about these as I haven't used them before.

Looks great and since you did all the work yourself, it's good to know that when it breaks in half...................


you still own both pieces!

Just showered and finally going to bed.

Got it all done and loaded by 11:00pm. "Trail Head" skid plates look ok. I will add some drain holes and extra bolts for strengthening.



I'll get some better pics later. I didn't think about it until it was loaded. These skids are 1/2" HMWPE. We will see if they can survive Bull Run and RRB in the same month. They were $250 cheaper than Trail Armor and Farm Rig doesn't need $700 skids.

Got a link? JTW gonna break my balls until I do something. I'm thinking about just getting some 1/2 abs or 1/8th steel sheet and making some using the stocks as a template

I use steel and go all the way over to the nerf bars! Just do something! Time is running out!

ABS would not survive, too brittle.

Here's a better pic of the skid plate. It's 1/2" HMWPE not "ultra".

 

[joeymt33]

Got the bash plate installed too.

Looks good buddy, wish I had a lift!

 

[elkguide]

Lift envy here too!
Looking good.

 

[JTW]

The lift is one of my favorite mods and it's cheap and easy too!

That's right. We all can buy $15,000 rigs and put another $4000 in accessories. A $1500 lift is not a bad accessory to have! Even if you don't have a garage ceiling or shop ceiling high enough, you can still put one on the ground and at some point you can put a pole shed over it.

How tall are your ceilings joey?

 

[joeymt33]

How tall are your ceilings joey?

14 feet but that's a little bit of overkill for this model

There is no such thing as overkill. Lol

 

[moparornocar]

I've got 10 ft ceilings in my shop. Looks like there's a few models that will fit mine.
