Show Off Your Armored 1st Gen Pics Thread

Thanks!

In total... I'm not too sure. It took me way longer than I thought it would, though I pretty damn new to welding. I was quoted by a few people local to Montana around $300

 

Substantial. I've seen some nice stuff from Skidrow, what are some other options?

 

Skid Row is really the only company producing skids for our trucks. Some company in Canada claims they are close but who knows if that's gonna happen.

 

Addicted off road fits pretty well.

 

I think that’s the best looking aftermarket

 

Nice lights. I wanted to go with those but they are pricey. And welcome to the forum.

 

I think I agree, but I wish there was more integration into the a arm crossmember. Some bolt on skid of something instead of a high clearance bumper and then seeing half the radiator. Sort of the same issue I have right now.

 

I think I still like the BFF the most. I'm just not sure I want to order from them since they don't answer the phone and their lead times are usually months.


I don't know who's black truck that is, but it looks outstanding. I want that grill.

 

That black truck is T3 edition. You can see the T3 hiding behind the hoop. The grille is part of the package. You may be able to track one down though.

 

Yep. I think it would be next to impossible to find at this point. I think it might just be a T3 grill. The real T3's had a decal on the bed unless he removed it. And all in the US were 2x4. There were a few hundred 4x4's sold in Canada. Have you ever come across one up there?

 

I am building my Coastal to mimic the BFF on the grey. Coastal will change the cutouts for you for $25. I planned to add the hoop myself to mimic the grey truck. And only doing (1) set of lights as I don't care for the (2) set look.

See below for my cutout template that I am doing.

 

I almost bought one in 2007 when I was in high school. Didnt have all the coin then though. Guy was asking for well over $15k for it back then iirc. I want to say it was pushing $20k but can't be certain.

I've only ever seen one since then and it had been abused it's whole life. Dented up, rusted out etc.

 

Exactly. They make such great looking products but can be a nightmare to get a hold of. I really want to purchase their rear bumper but it's not on their site and obviously it would take like months to get em on the phone.

 

what brand of lights are you running?

 

Does anyone know the weight of the stock front & rear bumpers?
