88whitemanche Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I'll just leave this here. Is that a gas tank skid???? I slipped on getting one from a friend...
neohic Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 The one on the right WAS a tank skid... then the Midwest took hold of it. Austin needed a tank skid before going out to Moab for Easter Jeep Safari. I sure hope we're in store for a big update on that. :redX:
88whitemanche Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 Hmmmm...I hope so! But I'm very Interested in the skid...would you be making more?
neohic Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 I could, but just like anything else it'd be big and awkward to ship. :fs2:
xjrev10 Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 Wow I have slacking something fierce on this... Truck is DONEish... Spent a week wheeling it in Moab, and out around 1k road miles.. Looks like I got my work cut out for me on here now.
Dillithium Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 Any updates for this? I'd love to hear your thoughts about the ARB winchbumper. I'm considering pulling the trigger on one, but I'm afraid it'll block my headlights.
shelbyluvv Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 I had an ARB on my WJ. It looks great but was super thin and dented easily. IMHO they are not worth the money.
Dillithium Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 I've been reading mixed reports. Some say they survived a full collision with a truck, others like you find they dent too easily. I think it's the best looking winch bumper for the XJ/MJ platform. I hate bumpers that stick out far beyond the nose of the vehicle, so this fits the bill perfectly. It is very spendy, though.
neohic Posted January 2, 2016 Posted January 2, 2016 Not to speak for Austin, but I think they flex and move around a lot. I saw his ARB break a corner light from twisting too much.
Dillithium Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 Thanks for the information guys, I've decided to put it off thanks to what you said. I love the way it looks, but I want to be able to ram people that annoy me in traffic without damaging it. No, I'm kidding of course. I want to drive over them This frees up some funds to do other fun stuff.
xjrev10 Posted March 7, 2017 Author Posted March 7, 2017 Hey I'm still here. Sorry guys. ARB is gone. I wouldn't put one on a truck that gets wheeled probably a little harder then it should. Like Ben said, the dang thing moves on the truck no matter how hard you tires the bolts...oh and they are heavy. Perfect for a DD type truck though. I have a DirtBound winch bumper now. I'm going to have to relearn how to post pics. Been over a year and a half 2 years since I've done that. Truck currently sits on 34" KO2s and Hutchinson Beadlocks. Some plans in the works for this summer...
WyoCherokee Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Was that at Bud's Wrecking? i was in Laramie from 07-12 and frequented cheyenne's junkyards as well as Greely's I remember seeing a few MJ's and even robbed parts for my 87. I vaguelly remember seeing that one.
