Kilby is in business - Who wants their skid plates?!

[vxcp]

So do we have enough for the order?

[JHarris1385]

Do we have at least 10?

Thanks a lot for quick response.

I'm interested. Just need to find out the price...

I'd guessing they'd be around the same when we got them the first time around on the "group buy", the powder coated ones were $750, bare metal were $700. IIRC they gave us free shipping on this group buy. They weight 150 lbs total for the 3 pieces.

I completely agree with Jo... in that I think these are overkill for the majority of VX's including myself and that we could get buy with the trooper parts. Having said that, since I'm not lifted and am staying at stock height like Sue, I would only purchase for peace of mind. (yours sure have taken a beating Kat!!, Nice!) Especially since I plan on going to Moab for the first time plus the fact Im camping and rock climbing (not with vehicles... With my body...) constantly. So I'd like a set.

AM I THE 10th PERSON!?!? Haha

I hear the Trooper ones do fit well...except I haven't been able to find any and I've called all the salvage yards in the Front Range of Colorado. I installed the nice front skid plate that Mile High VX gave me...just center and rear is needed now. Anyone know of a solid source for the Trooper ones?

I put together this list of salvage yards in the US that had a VX, and another with a Rodeo. It's about 15 months old, so some won't be accurate I'm sure. But since Troopers are so plentiful in salvage yards, I bet these same yards will have a ton of them.
You may need to go to Post #4 for the link in an .xls format.

It lists the State and phone number for all of them so you could start calling about the Trooper plates. Not sure if the 800 numbers work from CA..anybody know?

I'm guessing they won't ship to Canada, but I can get them and ship to you, since I have some spare time on my hands.

If I am in Canada, I took a wrong turn coming home last night!

Thanks for the info Kat...I'll see what I can find.

Some Colorado peeps are doing Argentine Pass this Sunday...not a challenge for our VXs but a beautiful view at the top and a great drive up. If any other CO peeps want to join we are meeting at 9:30 am in the NW parking lot at the I-70 and Morrison exit.

I will be taking photos

Happy trails all!

Google allhandaiisuzu...they specialize in isuzu salvage and their prices are not to bad.

They're on the list. Actually every time I've spoken with them about a part they're HIGHER, much higher than most others....I'll bet it's cuz I'm a girl...and they think I am clueless! well,....um...I appear to be clueless when it comes to Countries...

We do share the Rockies with Canada, because we're friendly, eh?

Jo keeps breaking his VX and could probably use the kilby skidplates.

I have the kilbys and they are absolutely overkill... But you wouldn't want an offroad product that wasn't overkill. Right?
