Re: Spring shackle skid plate
Yep you got battle scars just like me. Your pictures really show why the ones I made are an inch wider on the inside to protect that shock bolt head. Not that it could not be cut off if need be to replace it, but that might not be fun in the rocks or mud. We can live with this problem if we use the skid plates. The front hanger is also a problem. I smashed one of mine the day before I decided to get the pattern made for the front. This is part of the vehicle and can be fixed but will never look original. A plate up there will preserve the original mount.
The second image shows the driver side. They put the bolt in before the tank and its skid. So Im making my skid for that so it will just tack weld on. Any muffler shop would probably do it.
The delay has been a stand off of sorts about making me one set before comitting to 20. I think I have something worked out now. Between deer season and Holidays they are short handed at the fab shop.
I will post in classified as soon as I get some.

Re: Spring shackle skid plate
Hey BJC did you just bleed your brakes or do you have a busted brake line? Is that some kind of red clay jammed up in your shackle plate?

Red clay yes, brake fluid no. It's a long story...

Re: Spring shackle skid plate
Hey BJC, I'd agree it looks like they reused the hardware and did not install new. I'd go back and givem' hell.  Their suppose to know what they are doing.

Re: Spring shackle skid plate
Got two pair. Painting mine, install tonight. More pictures then. I only have the back pieces. Should have two front ones this week. I hope to have 20 sets in a week to 10 days. I will start down the list.
