I’ve also looked at Octagon style eliminator kits too, but the MC kit is the beefiest looking one. Still worried that I could bend the factory tabs with it.

 

I might be willing to part with my kit.

 

I welded the factory tabs to the marlin kit so they're not moving ever again.

 

Not mine

Good deal on a 5' bed mat, $50 in Bellvue WA

 

that’s the plan so far. Did you take the LCA off or burn them in with it on? Was reading some people were doing it with them on as long as they weren’t going all out on the welds and taking their time.

 

100% take them off. You will burn the bushings and will take much longer. LCA's are easy to remove. Just be careful to brace the LCA mounts, so they don't warp in on each other. I got full thread bolts and a few nuts to brace the spacing on the mounts. The guy who burned mine on said it helped quite a bit.

 

I will be making the trip from spokane to Astoria next Sunday coming back the following Saturday if anyone needs something moved in either direction.

 

Noted. In the other thread I saw some people had warped them and others opted to leave the LCA in to prevent it. Appreciate it!

 

Mine

Not mine. Pretty cool Carbon Hood. Not a fan of much carbon but this thing looks pretty sick.

 

Made by Seibon. Also, $1100 seems way overpriced, when it isn't much more expensive brand new.

Also, anyone considering should look into the need for hood pins. I know many don't run them, but it seems a high risk IMO.

 

I replaced my LCA's when i did my kit so i welded them in with the old LCA's still bolted up to keep everything from moving. @Bertw192 plan of putting the bolt back in sounds like a slick idea too.

 

Looks like Ebay has Seibon hoods priced at $1100 but shipping from China is $2,000!

 

Did you have any rubbing with those tires/wheels on your rig?

 

Agree on the hood pins and another thing worth looking into with these carbon fiber hoods is how they would/would not crumble and fold in a front end accident. I've always stayed away from them since they could be a projectile into the windshield and cabin.

 

$300 in shipping, which actually seems low to me

 

CF doesn't belong anywhere near a pickup truck

 

Agreed. My motorcycle is 100% carbon bodywork, it's ridiculous, but I would never consider a carbon hood.

 

Im here lurking and deciding if I want a cf hood because stock is heavy af. You guys make great points and I gotta get my head out of the 90s lol
