I decided to have all 4 shocks rebuilt and was pressed for time, so I had my mechanic remove them for me. Not sure if he had to disconnect the rear sway bar or not. I believe he was able to just rotate the rear shock guard out of the way.
Time for a shock rebuild. Does anyone know if I will have to remove my Budbuilt rear shock guards to be able to remove my rear shocks? Also, I know I would need to disconnect the rear sway bar if I were removing the rear springs, but do I also need to do that if I am just removing the rear...
SDHQ (Super Duty Headquarters) in Gilbert, AZ recently released sliders they manufacture for the 200-series (SDHQ - Your Motorsports Headquarters - https://sdhqoffroad.com). The owner of SDQH has a 200-series, so they have some other 200-series products they have developed. I have seen them in...
Here are a couple pics. Running boards are now off, some ditch lights and some Bud Built and Trail Tailor armor are now on. Just changed all interior light builds, license plate lights and reverse lights to LED. Quick/easy and cheap upgrade that makes a big difference. Bud Built rock sliders...

Thanks for the pictures! Looks like the skids would definitely cause someone looking to cut off the catalytic converter to move on to an easier target.
Am I correct that most skid plate options cover the catalytic converter? A friend with a 100-series LC just had a catalytic converter stolen. Apparently, some meth-head cut it off with a sawzall while it was parked at the hospital he works at. They tried to get both, but only got one. Will be...
Found the pic of where SDHQ, a shop in AZ, installed the rear remote Icon reservoirs on a 200-series build they did. Mounted on the frame, behind the rear wheel.
Thanks for the details. Greatly appreciated! I have seen a couple people relocate the reservoirs on the frame, behind the rear wheel. SDHQ, a shop in Gilbert, AZ, did that with a 200-series they installed the Icon lift and sliders on. Rear wheel arch frame certainly seems like an option as...
I have the same BudBuilt sliders I am getting ready to install and will also have to deal with relocating my rear Icon remote reservoirs. Would you mind posting a few pictures showing where you relocated them and any tips for that part of the job? Thanks!
I would be interested in a set as well. Hole to allow access to a ring I installed on one of the bolts, for tie down, would be nice. Could easily Dremel a hole on my own, however.
Thanks for the welcome! I have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge from the 200-series forum on this site and have come to know a number of CSC members who have 200-series LCs in the Phoenix area. Definitely past due joining CSC, as I look forward to expanding connections within the club...
