Ben- how are you liking those foam cell pro's. I'm in the market and am leaning that direction.

I don't have a ton of seat time with them yet but I did go out Sunday for a shake down run.
I drove it really hard on some extremely rough terrain and I have to say I was pretty impressed with them for the price! I was trying hard to overload the suspension and make the swing out rattle and did not achieve either.
I really didn't notice the harsh unloading in the front that was so prominent with the ome kit.
I also got to try out the new warn vr10-s on a full size dodge buried up to the axels in river rock.
Got close to maxing out the winch but it did pull it out, at one point I was dragging the LC and had to find blocks for the tires.

Damn, I went to order that winch and it's up to $770 now.

Keep checking, the price is fluctuating frequently.

@benc really like what you've done to your new cruiser!

Are you running a diff drop, and what springs do you have in the rear?

I'm looking at the Ironman kit as well, but want to make sure that the springs will be stiff enough for front/rear bumpers.

Thanks!
I'm not to familiar with the ironman stuff and to be honest I just told metaltech that I had aftermarket bumpers and planed on drawers in the back, I can't remember what springs I got but I just took their word on what would work best. I'll see if I can track down what ones I ordered.

Looks like I have the IRON-TOY025B

I really like the looks of your rig-and when you specifically mention noise vibration and harshness for off-road accessories- Nicely done!

Do you sell any skid plates?

Im talking to a local shop right now (jeepers so i dont think its gonna pan out).

Its between them and slee. We all know slee isnt cheap.

If you're not making anything would you consider it?

Id prefer to give you my money. Not that i have a problem with slee...

I do plan to offer a full line of aluminum skids just not sure when, another option if you need something now is bump it offroad.
