    Whatever this forum told me to do

    it's not advisable to pursue them. you run astray of the castle doctrine & it's exponentially harder to prove imminent danger.


    My favorite item of the TX LTC is having killed a perp, the family cannot sue you in civil court. it is a hard defense. that alone is worth the license fee.

    I won't say anymore about this topic than this. With the prevalence of LTCs in Texas, these thieves are going to be very careful to only do this when they think they won't get shot; which means they will likely (not always) look for opportunities with low probability of altercation with an owner. As long as you are in daylight and likely keep your truck parked closer to where you are spending your time away from it, that will drive the probability of theft in that instance way down. YMMV.

    Whether you are in the right or not, if you use your firearm lawfully, your life will never be the same for you and your family. I hope you never have to make that choice.

    I have one extra 1/8 steel front skid plate, it is currently bare but I could have it powder coated aswell.
    $300 bare or $350 powder coated local pickup
    $375 bare or $425 powder coated shipped

    Holy shit. I had that many miles on mine in just under a month. And I live on a gravel road in the rainy NW… There was so much shit falling in my face when I put my plates on, it wasn’t funny.

    All plates are just to deter a thief, if someone wants your cats bad enough, they will get them, given the time, tools and determination. Hell they could steal the entire truck if they really wanted to and have it parted out in hours.

    Front skid plate is pretty much spoken for.

    something that hasn’t happened since I want to say the beginning of March, I have almost ever plate at my garage prepped, welded and ready for shipping or powder coat. I have like 15 3/16 steel front cat plates to go. I waited too long to get a helper.

    My newest powder coater should be done with his “test run” to figure out prices and will be ready for 35 plates this week that he will hopefully turn around in about a week...

    The powder coater I had high hopes for “SHOULD” have the 46 plates he has done Monday or Tuesday.

    all of you who have been waiting for way longer than I said you would, I am making large leaps forward trying to catch up.

    Well crumb. I was installing a dual battery when that was posted. @Classy63 will you have another front plate? I want to order the complete set.

    Of course! I was torn between releasing the front skid plate as it is or waiting for version 3, but honestly, version 3 may be a ways out

    Sorry if I missed this reading throughout the thread, but these front plates work if you have a trd skid plate right?

    Tyler, any idea if your front skid plate will work with lower control arm skid plates without needing a trim like the TRD one would need?
