i had posted some pics of a skid plate i had made a couple of weeks ago and was asked to post some pics once i got it mounted. here they are.



these r some pics of the strut mount flip after it was done.

That should keep the belly safe.   Good job.

You do not have snow I cant work on my zook to much white s**t around and no garage at the moment

once every couple years it snows.

I need to move south, yep i do. mud all year round. that would be great, you are so lucky.
Today i had to play on snow banks they were over 8 feet tall and steep lots of fun but no match to the mud.

do you have front skids for your rigg.

Hey
    You should flip that strut blade on the other side of the body, just pop the studs out, if you leave it like that it could crush the flange and eventually either come loose or it will put a nasty twisting moment about your strut (aka lateral forces) which are bad and could cause your strut to fail. just figured you might like to know.  :-/  The possiblity of this is probably small but its good to keep things safe as you never know who's gonna be in the truck with ya.   Nice skid though.

I thought that was the orientation that was needed to get the benfit of flipping the mount? (to mount that way the studs already had to come out)

To keep the flange from crushing, I used some washers to act as spacers.

That pic is small so I might not be seeing it properly.

i should have taken pics of the install i made a backing plate to go between the strut tower and the stut mount it is pretty safe. but things can always go wrong. however i do try to keep it safe as possible this is my co-pilot.

What are you calling the "strut blade"?  And "other side of the body"?
