Northern Virginia Roll Call

how????

 

You didn't get my internet sarcasm?

 

no. Im tired. lol

 

The "twist my arm" was a dead give away David

 

And "sounds terrible" haha. Hope rci gets a good group buy going. I want to hit up RC this year

 

I'm hoping they get a good discount too, might jump in

 

If they do go through with it I'm only doing diff, LCA and gas tank. The rest will be relentless.

 

On a side note, anybody interested in my stock rear leafs? Shoot me a pm with offer if interested. Have 3000 miles.

 

Any reason why?

 

Why not all RCI?

 

Well reasons why I like relentless, close to "hometown" want to support local business... I know I'm not near there anymore. The front skid is 1/4 steel. The transfer case and transmission skid are all one piece.

I don't like RCI's design with the middle brace. Looks brittle and if you were to drop your truck on something it would crumble. Otherwise I like their other products.

 

Gotcha! That all makes sense, I'm gonna look at there stuff and see what they have

 

@Mobtown Offroad I think has 1/4" steel. But to be honest, I really dont think you need that much protection. And its like 75lbs for the IFS skid!

I used my IFS skid and LCA skids at Rausch. As well as my sliders. I just want the rest for peace of mind. And since the brands dont work together. Since I have RCI front already, might as well get the rest of them. The rear diff/gas tank/LCA I could have gone with a different brand.

 

Is it "stock friendly"?

 

Yeah I know they do. I'm aware of weights. I'm planning my build to be Rubicon worthy if/when I plan to get out of the military and go home. I'd rather be overkill and heavy than always have that thought in the back of my head. Relentless transfercase/transmission skid is 3/16 so it may save some weight there but I like the 1 piece design.

 

I was just looking at the website. What do you mean one piece?

 

Im not sure. A friend sent me this. I have never been. I think Flag Pole is. @90yota went there with no skids. I havent been south of Peter's Mill.

Instead of those being separate they are one.

It is. A stock 90s Chevy 1500 was camping out there too.

 

I'm not sure if I like that, I need to do some more research but I'm sure it's tough because there are less connections. Thanks for the link @90yota

 

they have a bed bar set of 3 also. You could do that, or a cage. @uurx has some tall bars, and then you could get one more..
