I found a leak on the other end of that myself Sat.

That looks like the front of the rear driveshaft? That is probably grease slinging out of the joint. Mine is doing the same thing but after inspecting it, I found out it was not oil. It worried me enough that I started keeping a closer eye on the engine oil level.

tramguage beat you to the patterns. He’ll sent them to you when he’s done I would think.
It’s like herpies. One person receives it then passes it onto another, pretty soon it’ll spread across the site. All started with Joey thinking something was hot

I haven’t updated this in a while. Not many changes lately except for one big one. Added the IGR a few weeks ago. I love it!

It makes pulling the 32” Terrabites a breeze. I only took one pic of the install.

Time for another update here, it’s been a while.

Added 3/4” bars to the OEM crossmembers plus two additional for support. I’ve had the OEM crossmembers bend straight up where they were very close to the oil pan. I’ve had to pull them down twice. I have also had the plastic skid plate touching the shift lever. Hopefully this doesn’t happen anymore. Stock is 3 crossmembers and now there are 4 total but 3 of the stock were reinforced.

Had to cut the corners off to sit flush

The TIG crapped out on me so I used the flux core wire.

This is one added to fill a large span that’s not protected. Not pictured is one further in front of that OEM crossmember.

Maybe you can see under the skid plate the forth attached to the front of the OEM crossmember.

Underbelly reinforcement is really needed in the rocky terrain, even just crossing down trees. Good idea.

How much weight do u think this added?
Would a thick wall tube work just as well?
I know mine needs to be done.

Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Maybe added 10lbs?? Not sure but it’s weight down low so I don’t mind. This is not mild steel either. it’s 1080, very strong and rigid like high quality knife blade steel. It can be brittle when thin like a blade but it is very high strength against permanent deflection.
