Thanks for the video - convinced me to go for the 1/4" aluminum version of these BudBuilts - when overlanding, weight matters. 1/4" aluminum has worked well for me in the past on my VW's.

I've been using the aluminum on the FJ for years. got a few bashes but nothing that would warrant replacement. They work fine.

They worked great, highly recommend! I still have the gas tank skid installed. I've changed the vehicle so much that I can't use these skid plates anymore.

If you get to the point where your skids need replacing. Check out RCI skid plates. They are out of Colorado. I love mine. Really easy install. Plus I have the diff skid too. That one is harder to install. But still not too bad. They are so easy to remove and install. I remove the front one to change oil. Less mess that way

Having that jack paid off! Iam envious....newer plates for my truck are on a wish list but not right away. Watching your last video it was obvious the new plates were in place. Enjoy!

Not really. But it stays pretty safe. I dented mine up a little, but it was ok.

thank you so much for the video. I'll be installing my bud built skids this weekend. Curious if you had a diff drop installed on your FJ at the time? If you did, did you have any issues or need additional spacers?

Thanks for watching! I did not have a diff drop. I'm not sure how that would work with the BudBuilts.

When you installed these skid plates, were you running a Diff drop by chance? Installing Dobinsons suspension MRR extended travel front coilovers and not sure if I’ll need to run a Diff drop or not and Bud told me “he hates Diff drops” lol. But want to make sure I keep my CV angles all good for the long haul.. seeing if you may have any advice or tips? Thank you @offroadhub

I never ran a diff drop. And these skids wouldn't have fit if I had. I would avoid it.

They got pretty beat up over the course of about 90 difficult trails, but they never failed in any way. I definitely wouldn't go any lighter than 3/16 steel.
