Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Here is a fresh shot with one on and one off. The one that is on is the design that needs to be 1 inch wider towards the inside to protect the bolt head. They will both be wider. Im trying to say brand "A" was not wide enough and the radius on the back turned up part is more so as not to stick out as much. Anybody see anything else missing?? You can also see my added 3/8 by three inch strip I added under the Rocky Road rock rails. I posted a shot on the thread but will stick it in here.

I think from posts here in classified and some pm's and emails I got that some people did not see the thread when it started. I moved it here when I thought I was about to have some and the people that were thinking about it would find the info. I will get them I have made a list and checked it twice, ho ho Please be patient boys and girls. :excited: Im really trying. Sorry for any confusion. It all started back here:

Cool. Good pics, I'll take a set when they're ready, let us know.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Must have been tired when I added this one. That is the added rail I put on my Rocky Road Rock Rails say that three times real fast. Its not part of the spring shackle set Im not sure if I was going to add that on another thread eerr whut? Anyway I wanted to share that idea.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Any idea on when these will be ready??:beerchug:

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Tuesday in the morning Im going up there and beg! They should be getting back into work mode. When I approve the first ones he said it would take a day, what day I dont know. Real bad timing when I started all this. I think the wait will be worth it. Im keeping two sets for me. Slow just like all H3 products.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Progress. I took the tour today and saw the laser cutting out patterns. They have the program done for the skids. Im pushing as hard as I dare. I will post a picture of a pile of them when I get them.
It says I can attach a pdf file but nothing happens. Sorry, I was going to show the cad drawing. Maybe too big? 179 kb

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Sure thing, Shawn from Angry Iron. Don't try to use an AE to pimp something. I hate when people do this.:mad:

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Any progress yet? :popcorn:

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate

How many people are really going to get them? Let's get a real count and maybe he will get motivated to churn them out.

I'm in!

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Yeah I know I too am frustrated. I go every Thursday and try to get an answer. Its always a friendly, "Im running the machine 24/7 and I will work it in." I tried several other places and they did not want to mess with it. I told him I will buy 40 each which will be 20 sets. It will either happen or not. I will keep trying. If they just cut them out I have a friend that builds race car frames that can weld them, he does awesome welds, but that would add cost. The way its set up the laser cuts a slot for the brackets to fit in so it is lined up and stronger. He just has not found a time to stop production to stick these in the machine. Sorry Im trying. H2o could Im sure make them. This was just a fast, haha, easy way to mass produce them and I was trying to help everybody with minimum cost. If there is a better way to do this or if Im violating any forum rules just let me know. From what I have seen its pretty much anything goes. If no one else is making something like this except maybe Amstar, which my dealer does not do business with, how can they have an opinion? Am I missing something? I saw what I understand to be negative feelings. I finally got the image to work by saving in paint and converting to jpg. I think this is a more functional design although similar in appearence, as stated before it has to go in one place determined by the design of the H3. As I have stated before this is a full inch wider and covers the shock mounting bolt and lower shackle plate. I also radiused the corners more. It has a gusset under the brackets. I also included the front ones. The others only covered the ends of the ubolts.
Maybe I will just haul a pile of them out to MOAB break out the impact and we can have a mass transformagation of H3's!! This what I get for being a nice guy.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Hunner,

Don't worry about negative.

That looks like a great design. I will buy them when you get them made, if April in Moab looks possible then bring them! I would be happy to break out the wrenches in the parking lot there.

They look like they will slide over rocks much better than the lower shackle plate and bolts will! That's all I care about.:beerchug:

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Send me the drawing via PM. I'll send it to H2O guy, and we'll get them made up.

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

DO NOW!!!

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
 

Da woman has some pull huh..?? Next we'll see pics of these being made and other folks parts still stacked in the corners collecting dust...:jump:
