    I replaced the factory skid with a BAMF IFS. It's very well made - 1/4" steel.

    @RelentlessFab they have full skids. The weather and school haven't allowed me to install my mid/t-case combo yet.

    It LOOKS good, but if you're buying one to use there are much better options.

    2nd this - its wider and has LCA protection. Best I have found and it leaves enough space to change oil without dropping
