    Well, I have a buyer in South Carolina lined up. Have had him lined up for a couple months. I just need to figure out how to get them to him. Joe aka blackout14 was supposed to go down there on a trip and was going to pick them up from along the way but he had some health issues that changed his plans.

    I could ship them I think but it would kill the deal for the guy. I had hoped to sell them locally. Shit, if I could sell them, and the OEM Predators I have on there now I would buy sliders.

    Are you still going to be the ambassator to mobtown or are you going to put in a good word for @boogie3478 so they can get free commericals and brian can get some free armour.

    I know, and it's killing me.

    Hey, what fumoto valve are you running? The longer nipple or the shorter one? I can't imagine that the longer one is that much longer than the shorter version to worry about. I like the idea of adding a hose to it during the drain. I'm not coordinated enough to not use a hose.

    Ha! It’ll still be me, and no free armor here. We all pay for all our stuff just to be clear :D
    I’m running the no nipple version! I wanted maximum clearance between that and the skid. On my subie is short nipple.

    Is that because you have a tendency to dent the shit outta your skids and didn't want it making contact? Or because with the longer nipple it just won't fit right? And does that include both aftermarket and oem skids?

    Randy, you need to get your spouse ID fast so you can use the hobby shops.

    On the second gen, the oil drain plug is perfectly parallel with the ground so really no need for a hose. It just comes straight down.

    This is unlike my Subaru where the oil drain plug is mounted at a 30°ish angle, so I wanted the hose.

    Anyways, I easily could have gotten away with long nipple but like I said, not really needed on the gen 2. I’m unsure about your truck and stock skids. You’d have to peak under and look.

    I’ll just make the long drive to rausch and aoaa, and just make weekends out of it!

    I mean it’ll only be a 4.5 hr drive to URE. Probably closer than AOAA and Rausch. :D

    You could come chill with the Carolina boyzzzz.

    Not that much of a difference in my book. Not inches.
