    Pretty ironic that your skid failed to protect me because it was drying in my basement from a recent rattle-can job...


    I think that's a design flaw you should really warn your customers about:cool:

    Ok. I'll keep you in mind. You're gonna make more if someone snags that last one from you right?

    Changed out front and rear suspension, one of the nuts on the top of the left front strut was rusted so bad it had no sides left so i had to use a metal cut off blade in my angle grinder to get that off and the strut out.
    Used Monroe Quick-Strut Complete Strut Assemblies on the front and Gabriel MAX CONTROL Monotube Shocks in the rear

    rides very well now, and am very happy even with the issues

    I'm not sure. I don't really have the motivation to sell skids anymore.

    Some people are concerned about rust beginning in places that don't see rocks all the time and if they can't paint for shit that's a decent option for them.

    I painted my skids with a roller. It actually worked pretty slick.
