    For bumpers-anyone that doesn't take 9 fucking months to build you a bumper.

    KM2's for tires, hands down.

    Built your own skids.

    I looked I to those the other day. Just not a fan of the plain look..

    The radial tread is significantly less aggressive. Otherwise I would really consider the radials

    Like I said this was a prototype, and it was cold as hell when I put it on so I need to adjust it a little.

    Pelfreybilt for bumpers, anything for sliders maybe DIY if you want certain things like kick up, DIY skids since you're going dual cases, pelfreybilt shock relocation for rear, and stick with mtr's. As others have pointed to KOH for validation I saw multiple cars running mtr's and if they're good on the street (no complaints about DDing mine) and hold up to KOH abuse I won't run anything else.

    Brute force makes some badass bumpers and it doesn't take him a year to get them to you.

    Jerry at BAMF makes badass sliders for a very reasonable price

    If I lived in Canada id try and make my own skids

    Hmm lots of good ideas from you guys.... Thanks for the input, everyone. Feel free to contribute more thoughts. Me thinks I have some pretty decent ideas.

    I want to tell you guys everything I'm gonna do, but I want to keep you guy guessing..;)

    Haha four dee four inch tars

    I had Swampers on my 86 for a while, the road manners were so bad. And I'm not a mud bogger. Plus I'm not a fan of the looks of Swampers really. Their rock manners aren't exactly great from what I've heard either. Sorry to shoot down ideas! This is more of just brainstorming than anything else! :)
