I can probably get an Alloy 11200 for $50 by November 5 or so. Just have to take the plunge. Summit has them shipping out near then.
This is why people advise against those. If I had a press I could probably put another bend in the track bar to clear, but I don't so I had to settle for an extra 2" of bump stops
This is the 3/8" Dana 30 cover from RuffStuff. I'm willing to sacrifice the up travel for the protection until I get a press. I came down hard on it a while back and it took the beating like a champ.
I might just remove the rock hard 4x4 guard and run the stock cover alone for awhile so I can install the steering.
I’ll let you know if Extreme Terrain fulfills the order between 10/26-11/2.
Smart move. I don't mind spending money, but this is a case where it would be silly to spend $100+ on a Dana 30 cover. The Alloy one is impressive, at 1/2 that price, and I wish they had one for the 44!I might just remove the rock hard 4x4 guard and run the stock cover alone for awhile so I can install the steering.
I’ll post a pic. I got under there and tried to figure out if it would hit my GTS. I concluded the fitment will have to wait till I change gear oil.
Out of stock but I believe T&J are still the manufacturer of the Barnett cover.
Safe travels! Try not to make the news while at the VA.
I'm likely going to have to bite the bullet and get one of these for the TJ, when they're back in stock. Even my Alloy cover kisses the Currie track bar at full stuff. Making bigger parts designed for a 4" lift work on a low lift build and 31" tires is more challenging than one might think. On the positive side, I can put the Alloy cover on the new LJ!
It's a great cover. The only dent I've put in it was in 2019 in Moab going up Top of the World. I vividly remember it because I was telling my wife the jeeps so great it could drive itself. After about 5 seconds of my hands off the wheel, it went from idling up a hill in 2nd gear, NP231, to coming to a dead stop.
