    That's my issue now. Lol

    Everything I have is Pelfrey. I just needed a front bumper then my armor was finished. I'm trying to decide which route I want to go now. I'm really looking at the SOS concepts full hoop front or At The Helm front bumper.

    I have the SOS Concepts aluminum front bumper and love it. It's not bulky and every thing Eddy builds is great quality work. I'll be getting a rear from him when I'm ready. I have a full set of his steel skids. Great customer service from @EddyRRT

    I agree. I've always liked Eddys stuff. I just didn't know about SOS until after I had already started buying stuff for my truck. I had a game plan for my truck before I had even bought the truck.

    Glad I don't have this issue...I have my stuff chosen based off design, cost, and opportunity. The front bumper is custom, rear is a used standard pelfrey, gas skid is a new pelfrey, skids are SOS, sliders are demello.

    I'm in the same boat: SOS sliders, full Mobtown Skids, All-Poo rear standard bumper. Front bumper TBD. :D

    Haha atleast you are honest about the All-Poo! They make some decent stuff, but that prerunner tube front bumper for the third gens is constructed in poor craftsmanship. Hopefully they have fixed that. Do your mobtown skids have the diff drop factored in? If you havnt done so...exhaust relocate is worth it man.

    Diff drop/no diff drop isn't an option for the IFS skid so I assume they factored that in. My transfer case skid is the one for the exhaust reroute so I need to get that done before slapping it on.

    Ah so the diff drop is factored in still. I thought they made it an option? Since Im LT I would never need that, so I swapped out my skids cause of this.

    They build theirs to work with or without a diff drop. This doesn't equate to a 1" lower skid though. It's maybe 1/3" of an inch since the pumpkin just rotates rather than drops.

    Well the approach angle on my IFS skid used to hit stuff in the past so I swapped out to SOS eventually which was a better decision for me since my height is only about 2.5 inches.

    Agreed SOS concepts makes great products, got my sliders, skids, an rear bumper. When the time comes I’ll get their front bumper as well rocking an infamous one till then.

    A pro tip I recently learned with those is once one side gets all scuffed up, just flip it over and bam! Brand new side!! Great vid as always.

    Saw your video. I have the Mobtown ribbed skin, tailgate cap reinforcement, and the EZ-Down ... the EZ-Down handles it like a champ! Lets the tailgate down slowly and smoothly.

    Lol how long before you scuffed yours? I'll probably just put bedliner on it if it gets scuffed.

    Mines still going strong! I’ve had it on for maybe 5 months now? Looks damn near new still.
