My truck has been on the lift all day while we been measuring everything. Here's is the first draw up of the skid plate for reference.
Ya sounds good for a one off but like I said on the last page, u have to use slotted holes because of frame inconsistencies. And obviously you don't countersink slots. But u can use Allen heads of you want.
There's is nothing to weld up. This is isn't some booty fab kit crossmember. It's a plate that is laser cut and bent. It's pimp.
Let me explain custom work,lol:
This isn't some crossmember that is mass produced in china and sold on summit where you pay for the part.
I am paying a guy to spend many hours measuring and drawing this thing up and making some out of 1/8" and test fitting, then more measuring more time on solid works etc... It's called research and development and it's made here in the USA. I have to pay him for his time.
I wish I had some little Asian kid in a sweat shop that happened to have a brake that could bend 3/8" and had a cheap laser cutter laying around and he worked for beans. Then maybe it will only cost 100 bucks. That would be sweet!
I am not trying to sell them. I am getting one custom made and I can get more made if anyone happens to want a nice crossmember that is done right.
Or u can get the ipor for 350 or the slee one for 400 that is 3/16". I thought for sure the price would be closer to 600. I was stoaked when he estimated 300 for it.
What's up with " the little Asian kid" remember that little Asian kid built what your driving now and it wasn't cheap new.

Disgustigate? I thought you were Asian....oh math. Never mind
I think that's a great looking skid and would pay $300 easy - I did more of a Creeper design on mine and I can tell you with the amount of time, plate, gas, and wire... I would have jumped on yours if it supports properly.
Mine is ghetto compared to yours so anyone thinking getting a custom laser cut piece of kit vs bent 3/16 plate and flat bar should maybe reconsider... Trade ya
