    ive never used the roll on stuff before, but, DO NOT use the spray on truck bed liner from a spray paint can. it is a COMPLETE waste of money. it doesnt work at all, not for shit.

    Bought my AVID Off Road Lightbar for people who parallel park by braille.
    Very sturdy, doesn't move or flex.
    But, I ain't banged inta nuttin' and ain't been banged inta.
    Saw Pics, months back, of one that took a glancing blow that just cause minor damage to the bar.
    Well made product, Powder Coated Mine.
    And I can't say enough good things about Brandon

    3 inch lift with Toytec Boss and All Pro UCA's up front. AP expedition leafs with Bilstien 5100 shocks in the back. 255/85/16 Cooper S/T Max tires. All Pro skids, rear bumper and sliders, Hidden winch mount with XRC 8000 winch. Dual Optima batteries with IBS combiner/isolator and solar. CMC. Auto sliding rear window mod, hidden CB, CVJ axles and plenty of other little mods.
    Previous posted pics all seem to have stock skid plates. Anyone added one of these to a truck with aftermarket skids? How much approach angle does it take away?
