was under the red truck today and had a good look at the factory skid, can see problem with cat if going flat skid, will need mods to get it higher

apart from that , as long as raising the transmission doesn't cause vibes, looks simples

where does one get a 1" bodylift from, or is it more hockey pucks?

wildwood · « **Reply #33 on:** January 21, 2012, 10:30:42 AM »

Nice ones dont use plastic ................. Get one from MORE 'Mountain off road' they use alloy 1" pucks and black poly body mount lit and new hardware. Also do 1" engine mounts..................

Or you can piece your own together I have done both routes and there ain't much diff in price .just hastle and trips out............ So would go with MORE if I did it again.

so, back to flat skid, has the terraflex one arrived bellyman

was under the truck yesterday and seems load of room to gain

wildwood · « **Reply #44 on:** January 23, 2012, 07:27:27 PM »

Indeed back to the flat skid......................

I did one on the 1 Ton but........................ its a big heavy sheet of 6mm and er weighs a lot..................

Gonna redo .............. cant find the link but a few on Pirate tend to use builders bushes............... Basically the bushes similar to your front rear shackle bushes...................... welded to the frame and tube to brace across. Then you can use very thin sacrificial alloy plastic breadboard stuff (that has a techy name)............job done.................

Or in my case waiting to be done.

interesting, i know peters buggy has plastic under for a skid

chrisjones · « **Reply #46 on:** January 23, 2012, 08:14:10 PM »

I think i might have some of that nylon sheet knocking around. I got some to make rear corner armour for Barbie but never got round to it.

I can't promise it's still there, but I'll take a look at the weekend.
