H3 UCP Up Armor System!!!

[Scarsman]

how long are you going to make these for? i like them a ton. how about the front skid plate, it looks like it replaces the factory aluminum one, right? does it bolt to the 06-07 bumper or 08 and newer?

Probably as long as people want them and I have time to make them.

It does not replace the aluminum one. It replaces the tin one below the aluminum one.

Ok, for all the addresses and zip codes that have been given so far, shipping is $150. That is you picking it up at the depot.

Sounds good, for shipping. Btw for the rancho version one. Is it going to replace the rancho skid plate that replaces the oem skid plate...or would it just be the last two. The one covering the transmission pan as well the t-case

The rancho skid page seems pretty tough enough. But regardless I'm down for a set.

I can't really answer that yet, as I have not actually crawled under a Rancho lifted truck personally. All I know is everyone talks about one of the OEM ones not working with the Rancho. So when it gets to my shop I'll fix that problem, whatever it is. [emoji6]

 

[poncho1965]

Can you buy individual pieces?

 

[Scarsman]

I could work that out. What do you want?

 

[poncho1965]

The front skid, to replace the aluminum one...

 

[Scarsman]

You mean the one with the H3 on it? I would need to design that one. We did not do that one when I had the truck in my shop. I wasn't aware that one was an issue. But yes, I could do so. Just would have to get a truck in to work off of.

 

[poncho1965]

Well, I haven't beat mine up yet but was thinking towards the future[emoji3] But yes that's the one I was referring to.

Any pics of them mounted up yet?

 

[Scarsman]

I just updated the original post with some pics of them installed on Erik's truck, and also added a couple pics of the brackets and edited the info a little.

Just kicked ya $$ Scarsman.

 

[Schwarttzy]

Cool produce man!

 

[digglesworth]

Can't wait to see the Rancho version!

 

[Panzer07]

^x2 my guess is the rear section (t-case) would be the same as for the stock H3 and the mid-section (transmission pan) would have to have a small bend and need to be a bit longer. As for the front one it really shouldn't be necessary (the rancho skid) it is already pretty tough however if the KMW is tougher that would be something great.

Here is a pic from the front of the skids. Sits higher than stock, and nice and smooth.

I've sent a request for a quote. I'll let you know when I get it.

If you look in the pics in the first post, they are the bolt guards. Because these are flat plate instead of tubing the bolts are the lowest point. On the OEM ones the tubing hangs below the bolt heads. These gain you almost an inch extra clearance except for where the bolt guards are. Those raised spots for the bolt guards are the same clearance as the whole OEM UCP.

Ok cool. Great looking skids!

Have you thought about how countersunk hardware would work in those locations instead of hex head fasteners?

Wouldn't that make the mounting points weaker?
