Looks like the skid for the FAD. I would want on there. Is it possible the LCA’s are side specific? Can’t imagine Rock Hard wouldn’t have took the FAD into consideration.And another thing... so in finishing up the front RH LCA front skids, I ran in to a little bitty problem on passenger-side. There was a cover I had to remove (between the LCA mount & pumpkin) to get the bolt in place, but the cover would not fit over the nut. I couldn't get it behind the nut. I tried reversing the bolt, with the nut on the wheel side. Still no go since the bolt head wouldn't get past the Torx bolts.
I like the skids, but I don't like being without a protective cover. I had to do without it, but is this a skid plate for the differential or just a cover, and should I be ok without it considering I don't bang on a rock?

Their instructions mention they're not driver-/passenger-side specific...each side is identical. I thought maybe I mounted backwards, but that's not possible since the angled side wouldn't fit against the control arm. I've asked them about it & I'm just waiting for them to get back to me.Looks like the skid for the FAD. I would want on there. Is it possible the LCA’s are side specific?

Can you drill a hole in the fad skid for the head of the bolt if you turn the bolt around?And another thing... so in finishing up the front RH LCA front skids, I ran into a little bitty problem on passenger-side.

So... got any pics?Finished my lift install and added the trackbar stiffener.
That's a good idea, and I think I can, or at least a space as a last resort with the bolt head on the tire side. There's no way to get it on with the bolt head on the diff side. The skid's there for a reason & I don't like not having it.Can you drill a hole in the fad skid for the head of the bolt if you turn the bolt around?
You can put it in a vise and use a metal hole saw. Just make a pilot hole even though the hole saw has a pilot bit, it makes it easier. I did this on my lca brackets to clear the jam but at full drop.That's a good idea, and I think I can, or at least a space as a last resort with the bolt head on the tire side.

I can't possibly be the first to have mounted these things.
Last iteration (hopefully) of my interior tech. Added two CMM gram handle bars. One two move my iPad out of the way, the other so my wife will stop putting her phone in the cup holders. (She just puts other crap in the cup holders now). Ran all the wires through the dash so my OCD can chill a little bit. Drilled a little hole in the console for my phone cable so it’s hooked up to car play.
The hardware is a mish-mash of 67, Ram and Tackform. I’m really impressed with Tackform, they make components that work with all the other brands so you can create what ever you want. Their customer service is second to none. The owner had multiple calls with me trying to come up with the best solution for my Jeep, and their stuff is high quality. He sent me components to try and really bent over backwards to help. 5 stars.

Haha, thanks. I drive all over the SE looking at timber so I do a lot of off-road navigation. 30-40k per year.Is that a Jeep cockpit or a spaceship? Holy cow, that looks awesome! And, yeah, everyone puts crap in the cupholders![]()
It works on about 60% of the windshield. I have noticed some bugs and debris hit the middle of the hood and skyrocket up and over. If something is going to hit (given the size) it should only hit the top portion of the windshield. I have also noticed that it helps with the wind coming into the cabin. The wind has moved a bit further back behind my ear (specific to my height and seating position) Overall it works and I recommend. I'll be able to tell you more once it rains/snows.How do you like the deflector so far? I’m interested in one as well and was curious how effective it is.
