    Agreed, let's just knock it out one night. This is just a vacation guys, we don't have to have an hour by hour itinerary lol. I'm good with whatever you all want to do while out there.

    I am tied up this week (new shoes, coil springs and wheels this weekend, Brian helped me with pinch weld mod tonight) and gone next Mon-Fri. Will talk to Brian and make some calls to pick a day after that.

    We are going to meet up out on the arsenal at 9. We will put the truck on stands or a lift, pull the tires, let them start dismounting, change the springs, get the new tires mounted, adjust the coilovers and then get an alignment. Figure to be back at my house around 12:30-1.

    I may adjust my coilovers down a little and let them re-align mine. Knocked it a little out last weekend.

    Idk if it was a code, I think we just told him and he sent us a invoice. Although after his huge tax sale I hope you know the lead time is like 10-12 weeks.

    That may be an item he has made up already though. No code, he just said if you're going to Moab on this trip. I'd just ask him @EddyRRT or even @JimboAnz it's a super nice skid I can vouch for that.

    a piece of flat steel bolted to the bottom of the truck as long as you dont buy a skid made out of 1/8" youll be ok . They are to serve one purpose, to allow your truck to slide across rocks and such without catching on anything and damaging anything under the truck. thats it

    you're not wrong, but to say THEY ALL make a good skid is to vouch for all as if you've tested and seen all of their work. I've seen Eddy's, I've used Eddy's, and I like Eddy's. That's why I said it's a good skid. I can bolt a piece of flat steel to the bottom of your truck for you, it has to be good right?

    yeah, I have a strong feeling skids will be very important out west. Not that they aren't around here, but we have more trees than rocks around here lol

    they are only neccesary when you pick a bad line. You dont want to have to use your skid plates. Because your pumpkin is going to drag just as bad. Skid plates are an uh oh i messed up insurance policy
