Armageddon Armor by Southern Style OffRoad

Some of these armor guys get beat up for getting behind on orders when they get a spike. Thank you for being rational and having common sense.

 

Currently we are working with reduced office staff, but production and shipping is still humming along for now. Pending any changes in our employees health or mandated by the government, we will continue working.

Btw, stage 2 kits are back in stock!

@SouthernStyleOffRoad will you guys be offering the Armageddon Armor w/ a 30" light bar cut out?

Sorry if this was previously posted before

 

pretty sure someone already asked this and he said no

 

Yeah, different options were asked about earlier. The reason they can offer these at the pricing they do (which is pretty killer for what you end up with) is there are no variables in the production, everything is the exact same. When you start adding options, cost for all options will have to go up and lead times will also have to go up.

From earlier in this thread:

 

Well, the biggest issue with the 30" lightbar is that we couldnt make it universal because of lack of room. As you can see with the 20" version, the brackets can be slide wider or narrower to accomodate nearly every light bar. There isnt enough room between the shackles to do that so the universal aspect would be shot.

Also, this keeps things simple and easy to replenish.

 

Thanks all for the quick replies!

 

Was able to get my stage 2 ordered today.

For those of you that I've seen weld them up. I plan on doing the same. Are you welding them up before you test fit? Or what is your process?

 

Having gone through building a stage 2, I would weld it up according to their instructions (i.e. with the bumper on the truck and you fit it to the truck.). The way they've designed these is really cool, but there is still a fair amount of play in the fitment.

 

Here’s another update on mine. The bumper is complete, winch installed, light bar installed, didn’t have an extra hand to help mount it up, so final install will have to wait till tomorrow. One of the things I chose to do different is: I welded shut the slots for the light bar mounting. I welded up the brackets to be permanent for my size light bar. and stage two is 100% welded. Coated in 2k aerosol Raptor coating. Great stuff, kinda pricey. But we’ll worth it.

 

Here’s another pic

Stage 1 complete.

Going to cut and start on stage 2.

Any tips from anyone who has done stage 2 / bumper cut?

 

My advice for stage 2 (particularly the cut)...measure twice cut once. Seriously though, follow their instructions and take your time. I don't know why but cutting for the bumper was no big deal, cutting for the stage 2 had me a bit nervous (normally cutting in to a vehicle doesn't bother me...it's all replaceable.

 

I check my measurements a bunch for stage 2.....remember when cutting through fender flare you will also cut through bumper hold that line
and your fender flare cut will show so take your time......

 

Got to put the bumper to the test: Hollister SVRA, CA. Bumper stage2 makes a huge difference while still on stock suspension

getting closer....

 

I ordered my stage 2 when they came back in stock. Fedex came today

And he dropped off another stage 1 kit
