? for BudBuilt Owners
I am planing on ordering a BudBuilt skidplate in about a week. I was wondering if any of you have the belly pan they offer. Is it worth is and can you still get to your U-joints to grease them without taking it off. From the looks of the pic on there website you can't. is weight an issue for anyone as well with the bellypan. thanks

Its worth it. You will have to remove it to get to the Ujoints. You will have to do that anyway even with the regular skid plate for the front Driveshaft.

X2-I can't wait to get this dual transfer case mount on my '81..I was the only bidder on the ebay auction $31 plus $40 for shipping
Bud's stuff is stout and even though I got this thing used, looks like it had only been slid around a garage, Bud and Crew has been very helpful with hardware and other questions...

I'm going to be getting that transfer case crossmember too. I'd like the skidplate also but I don't think I'd be able to use it with my warn bumper. My bumper frame brackets cover all of the holes in the front of the toyota frame rails and cross bar by the radiator.

Nice i am glad everyone is pleased with there BudBuilt i can't find anyone who doesn't like them. I will be ordering mine on friday hopfuly the bellypan isn't too much more and i can order it as well. i will post some pics as soon as i get it and put it on.
Beaniam i am pretty sure from what i have seen the BudBuilt mounts onto the same ones the stock skidplate does, i am not positive but JBS4x4 has and ARB bumper on his truck and it seems to be fine. not sure about the warn bumper i am sure someone on here would know.

He normally has a combo going on for the skid and belly so check that out. Can't wait to see them on and put to use. Post up some pics when you get them on.

I assume that you are a non US YTer. First of all, welcome. Second, I apologize for not following your post. I know if I was on my second (or multiple), I'd be worse off than that. Hopefully I got it right
If that sentence was about belly pans and Drivetrain lifts, they will work together, but you have to specify it in your order. Its not hard for them to do it, though.
Hope that helps! Welcome again.
