    Here we go again,

    Ryno All Terrain skid plates are being discounted again. The first one made me realize that this is the best way for me to manage orders. This group buy will be open until June 16th. That night, I will request a $100 deposit and the orders will get produced. When they are produced (a week), I will contact you for shipping info and full payment. Will ship when I receive full payment.

    Details:
    3/16" high yield strength A36 steel plate
    50 pounds a piece
    2 piece set - IFS and transmission (stops at transfer case)
    Factory mounting holes
    Cutout for engine oil drain plug
    Replaces factory skid plates
    Not painted - maybe upon request (don't know pricing)
    I have no claim to durability but it's the same thickness as other vendors
    Stainless hardware is included


    Pricing:
    1-5 orders: $400 plus shipping per set
    5+ orders: $380 plus shipping per set


    Shipping will be fedex ground. I get a 15% discount so I pass that savings onto you. PM me if you want shipping estimates. Pay by paypal, cash, check, or credit card.

    For rough shipping cost estimates on a set:
    Colorado: $55
    California: $70
    Massachusetts: $65
    Florida: $65
    Texas: $55
    Kentucky: $55


    I will offer 2 main designs on the IFS skid plate. No cutout and TRD cut out. If you want your own logo, I can make it for $25.

    All you need is $100 on June 16th, then you can wait as long as you want to pay the rest. I will be on vacation the first week of July so I would like most orders shipped by then, but you can wait to pay the full amount until after if you want.

    Ugh... Haha:annoyed:

    So these essentially are a full set of skids like any other set you can get online, correct? The only difference I can see between yours and others' is that they have an aftermarket cross member. What difference does this make?

    Sorry for asking questions on this thread like you asked not to... :eek:

    Good questions are fine, I just don't want a lot of random chit chat. That can be done in the other thread. I'm keeping track of both.

    My skids are pretty much like other vendor skids. I use the stock transmission cross member to mount the transmission skid, not a custom one. I don't know what good a different cross member would do, except allow a different mounting point.

    Okay, cool. I was just getting confused by looking at other manufactures skid plates.

    Your prices are impossible to beat, and I have a feeling that if the funds are there in time I'll be jumping on this...

    Do you know if your skids have any interference with the BAMF LCA skids? My currect skidrow offroad skid is all torqued to shit but they work with those lca skids.

    Now that I'm looking at it, your skids look almost identical to the SRO skid I have. So I'm thinking it might work.

    From what i see in these pics and have discussed with ISU, the difference is a lack of T-Case protection in this design.

    As long as your future transfer case skid works with your current skids, it sounds good to me!

    It will more than likely involve drilling 2 holes in the trans skid, but that's easy enough. Otherwise it will be an extension of what I already have.
