You the man! Bringing the receipts with a caliper and everything.
Thank you. Just wanted to make sure the rear frame skid was part of your project and that there was plenty of bolt for their whole kit of skid, spacer, washer.
I don't see how they could have made it wider considering the tight...
It's fairly implied since you say they're the same length as RH supplied and you installed them, but just to verify before ordering...
The RH4x4 rear frame side LCA skid's instructions state the bolts are 160mm, but you bought 150mm. The 150mm are long enough to fully seat a nut using the RH...
Damn rusty bolts, get with the program RH. The skids will always need touchup though. Or just Fluid Film and let em go.
The only other front frame lca skid I had found may actually solve the cantilever issue. Requires drilling, but very affordable. I just don't hit the front, so skipping for...
Sorry, coming back to this after further consideration. Couple Qs.
Why are you re-torquing after every trip. Is that an RH recommendation, your personal diligence for LCAs in general, or your opinion of the skid design not being able to prevent all rotation after a hit and possibly messing with...
Thank you very much, greatly appreciated!
That confirms my suspicion, it's cantilevered. I can't say that's definitively a problem, but I am an overthinker and wonder how it would treat that bolt if a heavy force pushed on that cantilever. It wouldn't just be simple upward pressure. Takes a...
Thanks for the additional photos! My frame has the same gap as seen in your first two pics, both sides of the truck. The last pic shows the mod I was expecting to see based on the review I read, and looking under my truck.
Can you please comment on my question from post #10? I'd like to know if...
@Sw00per
Thanks for the extra details!
Wow, that's not where I was expecting grinding at all. But I guess I can see how the leading angled part of the oem bracket does have an early bend as it gets closer to the frame. If you had to grind there, and at least one reviewer had to cut on the...
Might be some don't wheel that way? Might be a bit of the devil/angel you know, vs the one you don't?
Spacers keep what you have. If you like it, you may want to keep it.
Mojave spring lifts seem to be a mixed bag around here. "Bought 2" springs, ended up with a 3" lift." "Bought ABC springs...
Do you mean "modded" to fit? In what way, cutting some of the skid off?
Is it because the MC skid has its side wall go all the way up and interfere with the gas tank skid plate? It's what I've been guessing based on a review saying it needed to be cut and looking at the skid pics online and...
@Metalcloak
Can you tell me, and/or take a pic, to let me know if the unbolted side of the rear frame LCA skid is supported by the factory mount? Or is it spaced and cantilevered?
See pic from your instructions for the space I'm referring to. In the pic there is a gap, but it also looks like...
Facebook Marketplace or other local sales sites if you want to wait for a deal. Or any of the Mopar sites for sooner.
Same front springs for left and right.

What's your goal, to save money or to have a smoother, quieter ride?
If the latter, go for it. As long as you're willing to go through the hassle of swapping out wheels whenever needed. Your frequency and patience would determine that hassle.
If the former, you'll have to do some math. Road...
These ones?
I'm a fan of the gold zinc as I hate rust. But there seems to be a review about it not fitting on the Mojave passenger side due to stock skid plate. The review mentions having to cut away some of the skid.
As a note, the install instructions neglect to mention torque figures for...
If you've already added the weight and end up gaining 1/2" with the coil change, you're really just returning back to baseline since the weight likely caused some sag to begin with. Depends on the weight.
As such, there's no need to change bump stops or anything really.
People have added 2.5"...
Many have added Mojave X springs to their standard Mojaves to account for the weight they've added in bumpers and winches. All the reports I've seen have been very happy with the results, with at least one reporting gaining 1/2" in height.

I know it doesn't answer...
