    1.25 is the one. I've got small plans for my suspension but nothing that'll touch yours.
    Ray10s, now we're talking!

    Nah, you can have them ... I'm to cheap to be swapping out my wheels anytime soon. First saw them on @Diablo169's Bro-coma and loved them.

    Well I got the ifs and mid skid painted up and bolted on. Probably hard to tell but it sits flush with the middle cross member! Progress!

    Almost...just need the reroute done now so I can bolt on the last one. They are much lighter than my older mob town skids by a long shot.

    Hell no! I went from Mobtowns 1/4" to SOS 3/16" but @Lots2Learn58 has the 3/16" mobtown version and Im pretty sure these are easily lighter than his. This might save me a little on gas so I cant complain!

    I see. From pictures I've seen the Mobtown skids have a lot of extra bracing, so I'm sure it adds up.

    The new ones do, the ones both me and @Lots2Learn58 have were created before the added bracing. Im sure the bracing can only help the skids though.

    Yeah. Bracing is usually a good thing, especially when going to thinner materials. It would be interesting to see what the weight differences are between the various brands/styles.

    They have minor gussets, but shit my mobtown ones didn't have any gussets either. Nice man what did you hit them up about?

    I'd be worried, only reason I say that is because my 1/4 had a bend in them without gussets. Thinner metal will bend. Now that my 1/4 mobtowns are gusseted they are just as strong as bamfs 1/4 gusseted. I know its completely overkill buttfuckit. GLASS.......

    Yea man my skids have literally held my truck on a big rock when I was in SC. We will see what happens, I might try to get them gusseted up or something in time. For now just trying to get a slimmer profile underneath.
