You could just notch the skid plate too.

I don't know of anyone that currently does. We use a hole saw and cut out the area that hits.

I have the PRM skid and it is the Z model. I only had to cut out about 1/2" at the very top to get it to work. I do believe I put like one or two washer in too, just to be safe. I can double check if you need me to.

gonna look at it in the morning, i have the prm and will cut it if i can but it seems to hit the bottom too..
jeff how big of a spring change does this require when addding a +8mm linkage ? i went from a eibach 73613, 891.c054.0 the 8 could be a b.. but those are the numbers on my spring, i put the stock spring back on per advise from a friend and it's to much spring in my opion, all the preload off and it's still as tall if not taller, but with a bunch more travel.

Wow, thats a pretty stiff spring, give me a call.

Notching the skid works but it acts like a shovel and will fill up with mud, rocks, baby kittens and any other crap ya run over.....:ermm: Guess it's better than nothing though.:scary:

i just cut the whole box part of it off and it's kinda like the stock skid now, and put the stock linkage skid on it for now..
