    They look as good as anyone else's in my opinion. Personally, I'd rather support someone local I know and save on shipping. The only issue is how does a 3rd Gen look vs a 2nd Gen underneath. We'll have to do some measuring, but I'm willing to guess they are very similar. Besides, once he's got the dimensions on mine, then he can offer 3rd Gen skids for everyone else in the area too.

    I'd be more than happy to help out on it. It's pretty rewarding building them and watching them work for sure. I think Juan is right in that the main difference between the 2nd and 3rd gen IFS skid is the cutout for the oil filter, which would be easy peasy to do. I'll have some free weekends possibly, after the hot springs trip.

    Jakes got a trip planned to the Hot springs ORV park I think the weekend of the 11th. Looks like me and the wife are going up on Friday morning. I think and some of the other Dallas guys are going up that evening. You should make it if you can! That park beats out all Texas parks when it comes to trail mapping and marking
