P1000 Awsome tree kickers!

[Plumber32]

After some thought about what tree kicker design would work best for me. I took out my crayons and made a rough design and sent it to @knuckledeep For his thoughts and if he was interested in building them. He looked them over and made a set for me. Needless to say @knuckledeep did a fantastic job
I had 3 requirements that this fulfilled
1- no loss of ground clearance
2- 65" width max.
3- support the rear tubes.
This accomplished that and more. They work great for a little extra foot room that helps the kids get in and out of the back seats.

Nice job. That should be enough to bump around a tree or two.

Still running stock skids? I wouldn't be worried about trees here yet, it's the rocks you got to worry about!

So if you can lift the rig by them........ what does that translate into for how big of a tree can you hit with them?

It's for tight turns so it kicks the ass of the rig around the obstacle. So you don't smack your rear tire and bend your a arms ect

Got the angle and kick out concept down but wondered if you had figured out just how big a tree and just how fast you can hit it at.

No I'm usually in 1st low in those situations. So slow going not looking to bounce it.

Install was fairly simple. Contact @knuckledeep on price and availability.

how did you connect to the existing round tube?

It's a 2 piece sleeve. You drill 2 holes through the tube and bolt together. Basically sandwiched it .

Those look cool as hell. Simple yet effective. Nice job.

Do your tires stick out farther than stock? Or, would these be needed with factory wheels and tires also?
