Nice! I have one of those waiting to go on once we get my Clayton installed this week... I am also running an open cat atm... it sooo beast! Still trying to figure out what to do exhaust wise... I can't decide between a 40 or 70 series...

I was running a super 44 and it sounds soooo much better with no muffler. The skid plate is awesome. That thing is beef man. 1/4 should be plenty to keep the rocks at bay. If you start having the same issue as me about it not fitting flush with the crossmember and frame stiffners feel free to hit me up and I can go into more detail as to how we took care of it.

Forgot to add I must be falling behind in your build thread, I don't remember you mentioning having gotten the kevins skid.
LOL... I don't know if I did actually... it was kinda a impulse buy while mine was at the body shop... yeah that thing is definitely beef! Il let you know if I have any fitment issues... I'm pretty stoked get that Clayton on...!

Lol I think its a great purchase. Like I said we ran into our little issues with the install but hey I own a jeep so I'm used to that. Need to get on a trail and see how it takes the abuse. I put my jack right in the center and it took the jeep about 3 1/2 inches above right height (measured from floor to fender) till the jack was maxed out. The skid didn't even seem to notice.

Went over to sundeviljeepers and got around to installing my Clayton transfercase skid from KOR. The muffler wouldnt let the skid sit flush so that had to go. I'm just running a open cat now. Then we realized it still wouldn't sit flush but not due to hitting anything. The crossmemeber and frame stiffners. So next best thing we took cut some pipe down to the right size and filled the pipe with washers. Got some longer grade 8 bolts and were back on track. Not the best pic. If I lay right under the jeep even zoomed all the way out its way too close so here ya go.
Would there be fitment issues on the 4pointSlow? Or is it just the V8 due to exhaust piping or somehting...?

shipped @ your home?

PS where's yours rear wiperblade?
In My basement. Lol

Took it of to spray paint it. Turned out Really Nice, but decided not to put it on again, because i never use it and it look so much cleaner without.
It also make problem at winter when i use rear Window heater to Take away ice, it melts and goes down to the wiper and freece again, alot of ice builds up around the wiper and makes scratches to the paint.

I want to Remove the whole wiper motor and wiper holder too but hasnt figured out What to close/blend the holes with.

Any sugestions? Really dont need the rear wiper and it Looks so much cleaner without.

Make sure you run a turn down so the hot exhaust isn't blowing on your gas tank. Otherwise your gas tank will melt and ...

You know I don't think it was anything to do with the engine. Basically what was happening is once the skid was lined up where it needed to be, if we pushed the skid up till it was flat against the crossmember there was about 3/4 of an inch between the frame stiffners and the outer wings of the skid. Instead of crying and calling KOR we just decided to make spaces. Think budget boost or better yet body lift. Went out bought longer grade 8 bolts and some tubing. Cut the tube to make 6 pieces each 13/16ths and filled with washers just the right size for added strenght. If you run into trouble installing yours or have more questions let me know man. I can take more pics also if necessary when the rain dies down.

Very much boom, its amazing how important the direction of the exit is. I say true duals with dumps before the rear tires :O

he would just have to cut the tips short so they didnt rub on the rear LAs
