    A bunch of the same stuff everybody else has already done.
    duplicolor wheel paint. Silver. After plenty of sanding/smoothing it was 3 coats of self etching primer, 4 coats of color and 3 coats of clear.

    Request for pics of the lower shock mounts. Those things look beefy. Where did you get the mounts? Was it a kit?

    Looks like @JLee still makes the diff skid. It's listed for 05-15... but is there a difference in the actual 3rd member between 1st gen and 2nd gen, that would make the skid not work? I know the axles are wider on 2nd Gen, but I don't know what difference there would be between the thirds... never paid that close attention when working under there.

    technically the diffs are the exact same.

    I've never looked that close to see if the housing is different though.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Our 1st gen skid is different than the 2nd gens the bends around the housing is different slightly and I'm pretty sure the drain plug is on the other side as well. We had 10 1st gen skids in stock for well over a year. I finally moved them to local customers and removed it from the site as we don't plan on making more due to lack of sales.
