    I had to adjust the hard lines a little to clear the clamps, but overall install took about 10 minutes with Ragnar and his cousin handing me hardware.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    I'm shooting for the end of the month to have them all done and shipped out. And they are powder coated so no need to paint.

    @JLee glad your back, any thoughts on attaching a track bar to the front clamps on these?

    Feasible, or a totally stupid idea?

    Not enough connection points on the diff I wouldn't trust it. Track bar mounts should be welded to the axle tubes.

    Done deal all skids are finished and shipping out today but one. @opteron if you want matte red it's going to be months before yours will be coated. Unless you want to pay the whole batch fee to powder coat one part red it's $200 to fire up the oven and coat one part. I've got a black one that can ship out today.

    Major fuck up on my part! we just found out the second 8.0" drain plug is on the opposite side as the first gen these skids were mocked up on a first gen. None of these 8.0 skids will fit the 2nd gens we have to make all new ones. Sorry guys but no 8.0 skids are going out unless you have a 1st gen.
