    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    You might have to sand the X brace down a little there is a lot of room above the mid skid but if it hangs down you might have some contact with the skid. If you want to check you need 2" of clearance from the bottom of the trans cross member up so if it's more then 2" higher your good if not there will be some trimming to do or we leave the X brace off.

    @JLee new skid set looks great! Do you have any plans for a gas tank skid I'd like to get everything at once and save on shipping. Still waiting for more people to do diff skid GB think we have 5/20 last I checked.

    I can confirm that the Transmission skid does NOT work with the URD Y-Pipe. Not even close. Just got my exhaust re-worked again today to fit these skids. Now to find time to get them mounted and drill the holes through my frame and sliders for the Transfer Case crossmember.

    @JLee Do you know what an estimated wait time would be for an IFS skid? Time for me to get this cheap tin stock one off the truck

    Just start in the front and work your way back. Install is pretty easy, everything will line up no prob. I would invest in some good bits for the last skid. Step bits will work good once you have a small pilot hole already drilled.

    We are working on Install instructions i don't have the pictures i need to finish them. but they are very easy to install. Everything lines up with factory mounting locations but the trans cross-member that's where you need to drill.

    Advise *** Make exhaust adjustments at your discretion. This may not be the correct way to route but this is how I managed to do it at home with URD Y pipe.
    I cut 1.25" from the verticle section on driver side below the o2 bung. Score pipe before cutting and keep orientation the same. Undo passenger side exhaust clamp to allow section to realign roll and I also had to drive those 2 sections in tighter to keep her in same place. Only had to cut 0.5" from X brace to achieve adequate clearances.

    I now have 0.5" clearance to driveshaft and 1.5" from trans.
