I found that out when I ordered the tank. It has arrived at my mechanics so I’m just waiting for the skids to arrive to install. I hope that the higher clearance is worth the 10 less gallons.

CBi Full Skid Plates w/ Tank plate should ship ... soon?
Ordered ARB OME (Old Man Emu) BP-51 Lift Kit & Full Suspension with OME upper control arms today.
Hopefully they will both arrive in a week or two at Parry Motors to be installed at the same time as the LRA tank.
Now, just need to get some BFG KO2s by that time ...

Hah!!! Never got/saw the shipping notification from CBi. They've been at my mechanic for a few weeks. So I'm REALLY glad that I went ahead and ordered the OME upgraded suspension. They'll be ordering the recovery points and the BFG KO2s. So as soon as the little EMUs get there I can bring in Shelia for her 2 day spa treatment.

OME UCArms were extremely back ordered. Did not even have a ship date.

Swapped them out for SPC upper control arms instead. Hopefully will ship by the 17th.

If I’m lucky I can get her into the shop so they can install everything before the end of the month.

CBI skid plates and OME installed. Will pick up after drivers mirror (bird strike casualty) is replaced. Great work by Chris at Parry Motors in Portland, Maine.

LRA tank will need to wait for another appointment as we need Shelia this weekend.

LRAmeria auxiliary tank installed. Wouxun KG-1000G installed. Have the RamMount hardware for the Garmin InReach mini. (And the mini!)

Awning installed. Hopefully correctly. It’s great but I either have to make sure I get everything out of the drawers before I deploy or swing in “the back 90” to open the hatch. Or I should have gotten the 180. Thankfully the key will lower the rear window.

That's a great looking rig. I would argue that if you really think you need skid plates then you ought to rethink those N-Fab steps. Consider rock sliders.

I totally agree with you. I’ve got full CBI aluminum skid plates. Sliders are on my list. If CBI had a set in stock I’d stop by there next week. I’m taking a road trip. And would be able to swing by after Teton.
