    You think that might be why the gas gauge isn't working?

    Most definitely... I can't tell with the skid on but I'm gonna take it off and see if the tank itself is dented. I'm thinking the tank dented and popped something out of place on the inside

    Ouch. That was with a skid installed? Just stock skid I'm guessing?

    Yep just the stock skid... I'm looking at aftermarket skids right now unless I just get a fuel cell and relocate it somewhere else

    Yea my gas tank skid is 3/16" steel and hardly ever touches anything. Definitely my skid that's in the best shape.

    Looks like I'll be removing the stock skid beating the dents out and welding 3/16 plate to the bottom... Apparently low range discontinued there skid plate, can't find it on their website

    I got 3 rockers in the mail today too. Front locker, rear locker, ditch lights. Now they match the rest of the laser etched switches.

    Looking forward to your dual battery solution.

    Nice!! I love the otrattw switches so much!

    Me too! The only thing I foresee happening is the stock wires not being long enough, if that's the case I think I saw kits at advanced auto to fix that but I'll wait till it happens.

    Yep we usually get a group together and go. Usually the timing depends on whether or not we want to wheel it in the snow. Trails there are completely different with snow on the ground.
