    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    You guys asked for it so here you go were giving it a shot with 1/4" aluminium on the skids. As of today you now have the option to order aluminum. They are the same construction as the steel ones but lighter. And to top it off were starting it when they are 25% off!

    No it's not at the moment i have not had the chance to start on them so I'm not allowing any more orders until we start producing them.

    Had to use a countersink bit to drill through for two bolts to the frame because not enough room with a long 1/2 bit to drill straight i to frame. Loosen all bolts and let everything hang. You'll need 8 washers for the four mid bolts and flip two inside around because no clearance from front skid lip. And plenty of beer.

    Forgot to add, don't take all four bolts out at once of mid transmission mount for obvious reasons.
