    Finally got my budbuilt skid mounted. Had to cut some of the front lip off to mate to the Elite bumper and took a little too much off for a nice tight fit but it all worked out.

    Don't be drooling too much, there PC. Rust has already started on it. Have to drop it, fix one of the broken mounts on the bumper and get the skid painted or powdercoated. For now, it is on there until I get the gumption to take it back off.

    Washed it today so I got some pics of it after I put on the Wheeler's 3 leaf HD Add A Leaf pack. I have no measurements, this is all I can show. 2.75"ish up front.

    Looks good, plus you have a nice rake going. What did you have before? What does the wheelers 3aal proclaim to give lift wise?

    It's actually not raked too much, I park slightly downhill. It's almost leveled. The Wheeler's is supposed to lift 1.5" if you take out the overload leaf, but I left mine in. So another .75" more I think but I'm not sure.

    Stonewall is the fattest 5 lug slug ever
    About 1:50 this morning, actually. Went scouting a mud hole in the Taco behind Merchants off Battlefield Blvd. Got back there, and was romping around. Got stuck gettin a little too far into a rut too deep for my baby 2WD, had to call my buddy Jess to come fish me out. Back pass side of the truck slid far over into the rut. Tailpipe was half submerged, so I had to keep it running while I waited. I had the rope in the back of the truck.
    This was when I got home last night- well, this morning, at 3 AM.
    [​IMG]
    And this is Stonewall in the daylight.
    [​IMG]
    It was fun, what can I say? :D I ain't mad I got stuck. I sorta figured it'd happen. And I'll probably do it again. Trying to get Jess to send me the pics taken immediately after the rescue, in the merchants parking lot.
