Seriously, look back at that pic of my undercarriage and you can see my diff and skid are covered in dirt from hitting crap

I'll admit, I'm jealous of your guys' wheel base and stance. Me taking that land cruiser on those trails is like driving a bus in the bike lane. Too narrow!

Agree with the others, 47 is a cool place. Unfortunately, I got a little too confident with that huge hill in my stock cruiser. Made it up to the very top where it got even steeper and lost traction,...

Sounds good, meet up at Micky D's around 3:30?

Ha yea I figured that out pretty quick. The best was Hi with the center locked. Only thing was I couldn't turn very sharply...

Some crappy pics from my phone:

So I was up at 6:30 this morning and decided to check out the weather. About 1-2 inches of snow accumulated on the roads in some areas, as well as a ton of ice. My roommate came along and snapped...

I'd be in.

I'd be interested in either/or shakedown and work weekend

I heard there were some available to students this morning....

Sweet.... what does it mean? Red=weak?

And what kind of unit is a "ul"?

Eh, some movement would be fine, just need to prevent this from happening:

The u-bolts are the most common way these are mounted but plenty have welded onto the frame too. I've never heard of anybody breaking the bolts. I'll be shopping around in the coming weeks and will...

What do you guys think of this design? Looks like a little overkill.... I'd like to keep them as light as possible considering my front bumper weighs over 200 lbs.

Right now I'm thinking I'm going to buy this "generic" kit with their 80 series frame brackets and then just fab up my own outriggers to the frame: http://4xinnovations.com/p-RS08.html should be...

Where is a good/cheap place to buy steel around here? I just saw a commercial for mack's bolt and steel... Any good?

This is what I was just going to say. I really like the idea of investing in that equipment but I don't have a garage or work place or even room at my place to store that kind of stuff. I'm also a...

I have plenty of experience with wood and even glass but never worked with metal. I guess one of the things I'd like some of the more experienced members to answer is whether or not I should even...

So I've got a little bit of cash right now and was wanting to move forward with building some under-body protection.

Check out this thread for various designs:...

Right-0

I'll take the CB.

The stock plastic running boards are attached to the door sill/body and yes, all aftermarket sliders attach to the frame. Everything black in the picture comes off when the running boards are...

Have you looked at the goodyear duratracs? Sounds like those have what you are looking for.

I may just take you up on that, I'm from san antonio so it wouldn't be a big deal for me to come by some weekend. What area are in?

Okay, sliders it is. Now, I can either pick a manufactured product (slee, metaltech, hanna, IPOR, etc) or build my own. From what I've seen sliders are the easiest piece of armor to diy. I could...
