    I am caught up into June with 1/4 bare orders. I will be placing an order for all aluminum and steel outstanding orders soon. I want to make sure this first batch goes well and then I am dropping the hammer and doing all outstanding orders at once

    May want to check with an accountant. Leasing some space may make more sense from a financial and scalability standpoint. Just my $0.02. Heh

    Alright! I just ordered a lot more bolts and new stuff preparing for the slight changes to the upcoming plates.

    I am going to extend the pent bolt option to the front cat plate bolts. It is a 1/8” difference in bolt size and I just ordered oversized washers to compensate.

    Ok, now that the dust has settled and I have a clear picture of how things are changing, I am going to put a new date on the price increase. August 1st it will still be $25 more a plate.

    Again I apologize again, but the metal market is still sky rocketing… the price of steel has doubled since I started this…

    Working on it!
    Are the holes on the existing plates large enough for 1/2" bolts?

    No, 7/16 maybe, but nothing is stopping you from drilling them out!

    This is of course a strength modification, but the pro comp guys need that hole to be bigger to fit their lift for the “traction bars”

    I dropped off pretty much the last of the aluminum to powder coat today (all 1/4”) I have a chunk of 1/8 steel I will give to another powder coater this week, but that will be it until I get the plates back from plasma cut, it is weird emptying out the garage, maybe I should do a deep clean…

    @Hightide Did you ever install the Valhalla front and rear plates with the C4 sliders? If so, can you post pictures of the rear plate z-bracket mounting on the C4 sliders? Crewmax or Double Cab?

    Thanks brother. I ordered it 2 days after I got the truck. Wish more guys would jump on this. You were the first and probably most important mod I will ever do on my truck.

    I can make it, I just mixed info from first gen people about whether or not they want them. It seems more that they want legitimate skid plates more than theft deterrent plates

    Curious about ordering today (1/8" steel bare) lead times for front and rear cat protection. Have a trip to Dallas over Labor Day and I'm parking outside :(

    Edit: I've placed the order. If it can get to me before the trip, great. If not, that's fine.
