Yeah skids would be a serious help, but you know how it is on a high school/college budget.
It didn't look too bad there because I scraped a lot off. It was caked on thick on pumpkins and axles, wheel wells, all around my brakes, and above the cat and muffler (I discovered a nice hole in the muffler upon crawling under today). Left a good stain on the driveway though

You think that's bad? I'm on crossmember #2, and soon will be moving to #3.
If you're going to replace it, get one that is an aftermarket, heavy duty replacement. You'll just do that again to another OEM one.

Yeah, it is pretty minor, but it still didn't make me happy when I looked underneath and saw that. And I thought I avoided all the big *** rocks... Hopefully when I lift it next summer ( or sooner) I will be getting skids too

Redid my CB system, moved the antenna from the rear bumper to the drivers side above the gas tank, gives it more clearance over the roof for better L.O.S. taking a breather since its like 90+ degrees outside than going to rewire my CB with a noise filter. Than go wheel it and jam to some old school Staind or Disturbed....you know, good wheelin music to pump you up!!!

Pressure washed the underbody and detailing it for the trip to the Smokies.
Also, greased all front end and made a custom swar bar link bushing. I lost my other one driving down a bumpy road. Anyways, pics will be in my build thread shortly.

Got rid of my nasty exhaust rattle... sweet new 50 series Flowmaster did the trick.
