    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Once I have them on the site I'll be posting here first so I'm sure you will get one of the first. I'm running a 5'x10' sheet of each skid at the least as soon as I confirm that no changes need to be made to my prototype.

    Well, some of us don't like LOTS of ground clearance but take the necessary precautionary measures instead :thumbsup:

    added benefit - looks like the improved under chassis aerodynamics will result in an additional 4-5 mpg! :anonymous:

    Sigh... Soooo much money spent recently, but I'll def be ordering these as soon as they come out.

    @JLee do you think my slightly wide blem IFS will line up bolt holes with your new trans skid?

    OP updated with links to the mid and trans skid I'll be burning out some this afternoon we just need .250 wall square tube to complete the trans skids so about one to two weeks lead time on the first run.

    I'll tell you what if you can get 20 confirmed people to place a pre order I'll build 1st Gen skids. 1st Gen parts just don't sell as much as the new trucks so I don't want to waste a week designing something that's not going to pay out when we are busy enough as it is.
