    Sure will, man! :thumbsup:
    Should be workin on the sliders in like a week and a half to two week from now, maybe even sooner while i'm workin on the last few bumpers because doin a ton of the same stuff every day gets old and the sliders a little different than building a bumper. :)

    Yeah i have plans to make skids. And I need to get them out because theres really not all that much work in building them for me aside from coming up with the design. After that its just taking them between the cutting shop and bending shop, welding a few spacers or whatever for mounting, and then shipping em out.

    Yeah i've got a diff drop on my truck with my 3" lift, i'll make sure they fit with one. Seems like so many people run the diff drops it wouldnt make sense for me to make the skid not fit with em, ya know? :cool:

    Nice, alright. And I dont know if i'll be cutting the 'R' in the center just because it would be a weak spot, but I have another idea for cutting it in.... :)

    I just made a wish list for the truck. Complete and built like I want I only need another 6k:eek: This includes. Front bumper with lights. Full skids. Icon coilovers. Rock lights. Shackle flip kit. U bolt flip kit. Bump stops. Front / rear lockers. On board air. And last but not least a rear bumper. Damn I need another job. Or sell my boat. Fine wine taste on a mcdonalds budget. Send donations via paypal:D

These things are stout comp. to oem. I test drove for 10 miles down a road that did rattled my teeth and now its like im driving a caddy. No pics yet. But I am SO :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    Also i will sell the OME lift coils for cheap. 884's with 1/2" top plate spacer. if you want the entire strut i would tear them down and only use the coils. Because they ride like SHIT with oem shocks
