    @JKO1998 the Sony Cybershot camera I got is so awful lol. My shitty smart phone takes better pics. I'm never trusting amateur photo reviews again, anyone that thinks that camera's sensor takes quality photos needs to have their eyes checked. The video is even worse. If it isn't blindingly bright in the room then the photos are horribly noisy and soft

    Guess that's what I get for thinking I could get something decent for a couple hundred dollars...gonna send it back and get something else. What point and shoot did you get again? I remember you saying it was around $500

    Ya, is there a second piece to the stock skid?

    Looks like that piece will at least give some sort of protection for the steering rack in the front from the picture, but not sure.

    yeah I totally understand where he was coming from...but at the same time I didn't even get to totally explain my inquiry before he went off the rails and started on me

    That was the most annoying part... If you don't want to give me a quote over the phone, then just tell me you don't. Done. Don't bitch at me and make a bunch of assumptions

    yeah the stock skid is 2 piece, usually people take it on/off as one though

    Nikon Coolpix of some sort I’m sure it’s out dated now.
    Not the best camera but a little iPhone editing went quite a ways.

    Not the best but still better than a phone

    hmmm, think the second piece would work with drilling new holes and manhandling to get in place?

    It perform well in low light?

    That's where a shitty sensor and a quality one usually really stand out against one another...in bright sunlight even a terribly cheap camera will take a decent quality pics (maybe not when you zoom in on them) but to the normal eye they'll look fine. But when the clouds come out or you're in a dim lit room they take god awful quality images

    I'll check out the Nikon...they're a good brand that's the only brand DSLR I've ever owned. Though I mostly shoot Canon at work. They're all the same really lol

    Not sure what you mean...you're looking to install a 6 lug skid on your 5 lug yea? Will it bolt on or do you have to drill out holes to make it fit?

    talking out my ass but the subframe is probably different where the rear mounts.

    Just string it up with some bailing wire and call it good

    When zip ties aren't enough, bailing wire comes in for the save

    You can drive decently far enough with your muffler held up by zip ties before they melt through. Bailing wire lasts longer, though

    yeah only thing with zip ties I've noticed is that long term they get weathered and eventually break. I keep my hi lift handle zip tied to the hi-lift because otherwise it rattles like a mofo and seems every couple months I have to redo them.

    Maybe it's my HF quality zip ties though, who knows
