    Gotcha. Just on a 3 hour drive so mind got to wondering and figured I'd ask. May want to put that as a disclaimer or send a note with every skid sold with a "maintenance guide".

    I don't think a maintenance guide applies here, but a good thought. People don't drag their recovery gear through the mud and not clean it.

    True but how many peoples undercarriages are dirty from just spraying the outside of truck and not under it? Remember that this is the modern society where common sense doesn't exist.

    Just trying to help you get the best possible reputation started :thumbsup:

    Would everyone please confirm that I have your skid selection correct on the first page? If you don't have anything in parenthesis next to your name you're getting a black DCSB skid. Thanks

    All of the DCSB skids have been cut. Time to move on to the DCLB. 3c8f22a99a72e4d0e0bbaf878e6a3eb0_500b79499e64d6b1144be056b67bd4c02ac46edc.jpg

    I have a vinyl cutter at the shop so stickers will happen pretty soon. I just have to figure out how to use the machine. :D

    I'm thinking that matte black and white will be safe colors for the stickers.

    This is the logo that I'll be cutting.

    These are not currently compatible with OR models, correct?

    The only change that is necessary for the offroad model is the drilling of four holes for the gas tank strap bolts. I need to get an offroad into the shop so I can locate those bolts and update my file.

    Gotcha.

    Not in the works right now, but I'll definitely be picking one up from you at some point. The whopping 8# is too much to pass up.

    Yeah, we have to do what we can to fight taco lean. :D

    I'll be ready with an offroad version shortly, so let me know when you're ready.
