    with all of the tears and leaks in mine, i wouldn't be surprised if it actually quieted things down.

    worst (or best) parts are about 115 and 135

    only casualty (armor wise) was the cam tab guards on the LCA skids bending into the heads of the cam bolts.

    That's not bad at all. Down here we have plenty of rocks but also a ton of mud and grass that gets caught up in the skids. Mark had a ton stuck in his skids last trip

    I don't see the point in the diff skid it decreases ground clearance. Just weld metal to your diff lol

    LCA skids are a waste as well, IMHO. I mean c'mon the stock arms are plate already so they slide over stuff. If they were tube lowers then ok maybe something to make the underside solid and smooth.
