    Gotcha. Wasn't sure if end links were okay by them. I know there was mixed reviews of their BJs

    See my thread

    Yeah they will have to be at least 0° for her but I’d rather them stick straight out so they sit off the door panels.

    Will check those others brands out and see.

    Noted. Saving money is lame. Jerry said so.

    Anything but #6. Never settle Big Homie

    If this works out then your cheeks will hurt from that cheesy grin you will have all the way home. I am jealous!

    Very BroY. Perfect for Skip.

    Take them off & they will never break again.

    Engo is a better bang for your buck but those ComeUps are $$$$$$$ compared to Warn for similar products.

    The Engos I’m seeing come with synthetic line and are at a great price point

    Yeah I would compare them to Smittybilt but I think they are a little more reliable so to speak than smittybilt. Like a lot less either love em or hate em types.

    I am leaning towards the Smittybilt X2O Comp

    Just the outside if it saves you money. Big thing is make sure they mask off any mating surfaces or nothing will fit.

    Those of you that have purchased a mobtown skid plates i have a question. The past 4 days we have been getting 4 to 6 inches of snow each day. And winds. My trd shid plate is acting like a snow scoop. Each drift i hit it pulls snow into my engine bay. My front diff is packed with snow. Does the mobtown skidd prevent snow from packing in?. Had to put a nipko in front of my truck this morning to unthaw the front. Pluss side with sjitty tires n good weight barely use four wheel drive.

    And good morning all.

    I’ve never had any problems with my skids trapping snow in them. Granted I’ve only driven in that much snow a handful of times, but I don’t remember any issues.

    I would think you'll still get some under there and in it. I do on my SOS skid. It comes in through the sides. Also mine probably does a little more because I am missing my inner fender splash guards. It didn't pack in there like you are describing though.

    I was also busting through where the plows left banks to other rds and stuff.

    What are the stats of right-handed people killed by left-handed products?
