Pelfreybilt Off-Road

Limb risers? You mean the cables that tie into the roof rack from the bumper to fend off branches?

 

Yea, iam just trying to get everything thought out before I go forward....and I have to wait to put enough money away lol

 

Those would just attach to small light tabs

 

Yea nothing major just wanna have a good attatchment point and do everything at once

 

Linex is going to run you a very pretty penny. Probably about a grand. Another option is monstaliner. I have it on my sliders and flares and love. And it is much more affordable.

 

Cost me $250 for my Demello 3-hoop.

Just talked to jlee and he went.with the can spray on bed bedliner from home depot for the sake of touching it up later on down.the road n what not

 

I paid $298 for my bumper.

That is what I would recommend. I have line-x on my front bumper & sliders and I love the way it looks.

My problem with it is not being able to touch it up. I use spray on bedliner to touch it up for rust reasons, but you can still see the gouges. If I could redo it over I would have just painted it myself with a spray on bedliner.

 

x2.

I am fine with the Line-X on the bumper but I'm glad my sliders are just rattlecanned. They get more dinged up easily than the bumper so it's nice to be able to just do a few quick passes with the spray can and they're good as new.

I can foresee my self properly testing them out...being able to.touch them up is a must

 

I like to think I them as battle scars as haven't bothered touching them up, I earned em.

 

I can see that, but I know you know as well as I do that salt & raw metal do not mix. I don't mind the scratches, or dents I just like being able to reseal it as good as possible to slow the cance...I mean rust.

I just repainted my skids, but can still see the dents and big scratches. I agree that it looks pretty badass to have the scars. Especially in Illinois, that is the only way to prove I don't drive a mall crawler.

Edit: Looks like you needs some tires. lol

Edit 2: Do you sell a gas tank skid yet?

 

That makes sense. I get a bit more rust then most in
So Cal because I spend a lot of time around the Salton Sea.

Tires are still pretty good for a bit, bout half shot at 20K but I never run em down too far simply because there are few things finer than fresh set of mud tires.

No gas tank skid yet, no clue when I'll do that, just trying to stay above water and not let lead times slip more than necessary.

 

Lol badges of pride....I see em comen sometime for me

 

Salt is one SOB.

Damn yeah definitely no need new tires then.

Gas tank skid definitely is not a priority, but I figured I would ask. The next purchase I make will definitely be your rear bumper. I am just waiting on the next sale like the one you had for the 4th of july!

 

I was also gonna say for ur sliders u ever thought about hardfacing the used surfaces so they last longer n a lil more resistent to abrasion?

 

Hardfacing? Not familiar, learn me up

 

Here's a start, its used on construction equipment n high ware areas like buckets n things used to cut or shovel in dirt. http://www.airgas.com/browse/product_list.aspx?catID=15&WT.svl=15

 

I have no idea what it is but Wikipedia seems to know.

Matt

 

Next time u look at construction equipment look at the welds n it looks like some one just went to town just laying down.metal, that's hardfacing, a kinda of tempering,.... more known as a spot hardening also, off topic, any one have expierence with mile marker winches?
