    I should get some skids on tho... Finally having 220v wired up in garage, so might attempt making skids sooner than later if ryan isn't up and running. Might ask you for some measurements on the middle skid.

    Was also looking at a way to add a baja type front portion to my rack without it looking too goofy...

    Good find. Doesn't look too bad. I'll figure something out for rear skids though before we do that one. Migh be a later summer trip. Still want to run deer valley and hell hole too!

    Im not ready for body damage. I slide sideways on a hill up at gold lake into a downed tree I couldnt see on the passenger side. I pulled most the dent and fixed the scratches. You cant really tell now but it definitly was eye opening.

    my truck is the same way. no dents or trail damage, yet.

    wait, I do have 2 dents on my tailgate. I didn't realize Izzy flipped my shackles up and I let the tailgate down on them. now she looks like those girls from back in highschool with the 2 dimples in their lower back :)

    trail damage, its bound to happen
