    Don't forget the washers for the carriage bolts. Wouldn't want to have to make 2 trips to HD. :p

    Got my new wheels from @YodasTaco today. Super stoked on them. Super nice dude too, even drove up from SD to meet me by my work so I could buy them off of him. Now it's time to save for tires.

    Just bring your LCA skid in with you to home depot, that way you can size the bolts up to the skid itself. Get a few various lengths and return what you don't need.
    Should be normal carriage bolts + washers and nuts.

    I'm going to end up doing that, probably in 5 minutes actually. But the fact that I've called every day for a week, and sent an email a week ago with no response is bullshit.

    I guess you should have done more research before buying some used skids :stirthepot:

    It was a deal. I don't think mobtown makes LCA skids though. I could be wrong.

    Well the issue is I have to stick with RCI skids for mid and rear because attachment points are different between companies. I'd keep the LCAs (I just checked mobtown doesnt do LCA skids) and then sell the front plate. I'd take maybe a $70 loss on it, but I'd be ok because then I can get full mobtown

    Who else makes high clearance rears for 3rd gens? C4 does I know for sure but I'm looking at about $2400 shipped for what I want. Pelfrey makes a HC rear but they don't have a swingout which is a must. Who else am I missing?
