Highway Sign Skidplate

[BDurb]

As the title says, im getting a 4x4 3/16 in thick highway sign. Get this. It cost 10 bucks. Yeah b1tches. But i need a few pointers as where all the mounting points should be. I like pictures too. Thanks!

Hahhaa, I made mine yesterday..got it fo freeeeee..it randomly appeared in my garage Wednesday night???
But yea, its pretty straight forward install..I bent mine up in the front to the core support and welded on six nuts to the subframe to mount it to. The only part that needed trimming was close to the control arms...
And I show u a pic, but I'm actually on a dry lake bed right now about to use this thing up!

Let's see some pics

I welded metric nuts to big flat washers the welded the washers to the subframe and the core support.
But yeah, after my desert trip this past weekend, the. Skid is bent up nasty, I guess its time for 3/16 steel. I have a video jumping the car, its funny cuz u can see the street sign yellow paint on the bottom..haha
