    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Dang steel bare plates for the mid, rear, and gas tank, for about $500 pre tax. That's not bad at all!

    Only thing I'd consider going aluminum on would be bumper(s), skids see too much action even when doing light/moderate wheeling sometimes to go with anything other than steel.

    The whole deal worked out well for me. Sliders came powdered at no cost due to someone backing out of their deal. I did pay, at a discount, for powder on the skids. It wasn't much but looking back I would have took them bare. The powder on the bumpers was worth it. Their powder guy does great.

    They make all skids but rear diff. The mid and ifs skid covers your tranny and rear skid covers your xfer

    Rear skid - go with the exhaust relocation mid. Don't jeopardize clearance.

    Depending on where you go you might need the skid before the relocate can be done so they can use it as a template. This doesn't go for all shops. I had speedfreek do mine. He doesn't need the skid. The man is well versed in the Pelfrey catalog. Alex also knows a legit guy. And Deny, too.
