| Post subject: | Rusty's Tank Skid and mopar tranny skid |
My Rusty's tank skid came in today after dropping 170 lbs of TR rear bumper and almost killing myself i managed to get it on with no problem with a bit of wrestling with a few pieces of telephone pole, a tow strap, a ratchet strap.. two roof rails and a front recovery point I managed to get the bumper off the ground in an upright position and back onto the vehicle anyway, the skid came pained with some pretty tough glossy paint, after i beat the paint off one corner with a hammer getting it aligned, I repainted it matte black to match my bumper also modified and installed a new mopar tranny skid, couldnt find one for an 03 so had to drill a hole in it and beat the crap out of the drivers side where the exhaust goes haven't found out if its going to cause a rattle yet , we'll see in anycase.. the UPS guy broke a sweat unloading them off the truck

pfft, the tank skid i installed with one hand the bumper on the other hand yeah.. that was the work out but yes, it's built right up there with a kilby, i was unable to find any fault with it what so ever other than the laser cut RUSTY'S which I will cover up with something |
