well a skid plate is supost to skid over stuff,  and D-plate was made to use a somthing to get grip on.  grip and traction off road don't mix on the same part.

yah but with 2klbs giving it a slidding force i dont think it would get enough traction to stop the car

it might just take a little oompf =) and the way most people wheel trackers im sure they wont be short on ompf

the bds lift is right around 500 dollars and you get springs all the way around, struts for the front, shocks for the rear and it takes about 2 hours to install.

Nice ride!

Free diamond plate is a good thing!!

BUT, I'm with 1bigtracker.  You put that diamond plate on a big rock and you most likely won't slide over it.  Even smooth alum. can be bad.  It's soft and a good rock can goug it and hold you solid.

I've seen rigs where all it needed was the slighted push with one hand to help it along.  Also watched a friend push a lock Sami on 33" back into a mud hole all by him self (with only his hands and feet).

So, some times it's the littlest stuff that makes the difference.
