    Hey hate to sound like a jackass but what skid plates will work with my lift? I have a 6" Procomp stage 1 lift. The pro comp skid looks flimsy.

    Dont think any aftermarket ones will work. It'll be custom fabrication for ya.

    At least its easier for you to make skids for the procomp compared to the fabtech. They've got the arched crossmember to deal with and yours is nice and straight.

    Not really that big of a surprise to be honest. The ratio of 6" lifted tacos that actually wheel vs 3" lifted tacos is probably very low.
