For those interested in seeing how these skids have held up, here they are after a couple off-road adventures. A couple of nasty dings for sure, but they are holding up quite nice, and even though some ground clearance is lost, its better than losing a transfer case or transmission or gas tank...
Don't let that deter you, the long line just scuffed up the power coat and barley hit the steel, the two small lines did hit the steel. I looked at the sway bar and doesn't show any sign of damage just scuffed up. I do wonder if it prevented the full extent of the sway, not sure.
Yup already...
was cleaning my IAG skids and noticed this on the inside of the transmission skid
so the sway bar does rub a little when disconnected (as I used it for the first time recently)
Nice! Don't see many HE in this color, love mine. @JawnyBronco has a amazing picture of that day https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/heritage-edition-bronco-club.64445/post-2409827
Also, it didn't stay clean for long =)
Took a small bump to the rear diff, not overly concerned with it, but want to consider a rear diff skid now. Any recommendations for a skid that works with the FP diff cover? Was considering the MetalCloak one, just not a big fan of the color.
me and @JawnyBronco tried hill descent not long ago (we both have manuals) and it kept our speed fixed depending on when we activated it. It was useful for sure going down hill.
mine are as follows (no issues so far)
1 - unused
2 - gmrs radio (direct)
3 - ditch lights (direct)
4 - front camera + monitor (direct)
5 - sway bar (direct)
6 - compressor (relay)
