What size sheet metal should we get for skid thickness wise. And i see about getting a price for a sheet.

 

Well considering I now have front bump and sliders... Im gonna be heavy no matter what thickness we do

 

i'd stick with whats been the norm for all the other skids out there. as well as look at them for some design ideas.

all in all i'd be very surprised if you guys manage to fabricate your own skids with no fabrication tools or experience.

no offense.

 

I believe in us! @Tatts521
Lol

 

Also @JLink I was planning on using a big hammer, angle grinder, and drill press. Do I need something else before I even try?

Thanks for the info

 

I also have some fabrication experience and I'm an engineer. I'd hope I could figure out a set of skids!

 

3/16 is he thickness for the bud built skids I have

 

Thanks

 

reinforce them now before they are bent.

 

So angle iron right? and I'll get to use my buddies welder lol

 

Yea, angle iron with both legs on the skid ^

 

Alrighty, I've seen guys doin it. Thanks

 

I've got plenty of it left over cause I didn't end up needing to reinforce my 1/4". I'll check how much i bought, it's 1"X1" btw

 

Thank you!

 

My schedule has been so chaotic with weekends getting thrown in for the last few weeks, but it'll be back to Normal After next weekend, we should be able to figure something out to get you skid plates built before takeover

 

Hell yea, with support like this almost anything is possible TWFTMFW

 

That goes for you too @JLink thanks for helping me out

 

You guys making all three IFS, transmission, and TC skids or just the front.

 

I'd like to get all three done but we'll see
