R you going to sheet that 1/8" with anything? UHMW perhaps?
I see 1/8" denting pretty easy.

 

[1995zj]

Yes, I'll be skinning it with 3/8" UHMW. Just gotta decide if I'm doing a flat-belly skid so I know how much to order.

 

[SAMI]

Nicely done sir

 

[1995zj]

Alright, put the rubber back on, headed to Moab tomorrow

Driver side

Passenger

Overall I'm VERY pleased with how they turned out. I'll probably do the driver side in a couple weeks, I've just got to get ahead in some of my online classes so I have spare time.

 

[grandmaster]

It's amazing how much more clearance that gave you! P.S I now hate you because I feel everything on the road needs boat sides and tube doors

 

[Gravy]

Should have done the driverside first before Moab.

Rocker knocker would be a cinch without rockers to bash.

 

[1995zj]

Who wants to come do the driver side for me? I can't seem to find any time to do it haha

Thanks!

 

[filippelli]

ill come do it but i can promise it wont look as good as the other side

 

[grandmaster]

I will do it....but it will probably look better then the passengar side and you will want it redone.....and that I don't have time for

 

[1995zj]

Love the new boatside

Love the new boatside

when are you doing the other side? Should have plenty of time since you're not going to SEMA

 

[1995zj]

Thanks for rubbing that in ha.

I set aside two weekends ago to do it, but it poured the entire weekend! And I have to work outside so that wasn't going to work for me. I'm planning on the 13-14th finishing it up.

I don't have too many more from that day...

 

[1995zj]

Finally got time to finish the other boatside! I now have boatsideS!!! Next thing is to put up the UHMW and then flat-belly skid!

 

[Gravy]

Finally... looks good dude!

 

[grandmaster]

Did you end up doing anything with the T-case skid or are you just waiting??

 

[1995zj]

It's back up and mounted for now. I'll address it in April or so when I do the flat-belly. It needs to warm up outside.
