VXC Products survey...

Just letting you all know that my machinist buddy will be cnc'ing the rear skidplate mold tomorrow. Should have it in my hands this weekend. I'll be cnc'ng the smaller plugs (hitched/non-hitched) myself some time next week. Once complete, I'll bring this mold over to a local former that I've been dealing with and talk numbers to get these formed. Will keep you posted when things get further along. Thanks. rudy

I am interested in the front rear and maybe even the side skid plates.

[Y33TREKker]

Interested to see the progress you've been making Ron. As I said via PM, the skid plates I picked up from a past VX owner in Ohio awhile back had stress fractures throughout the mold that I'm having to have addressed by my bodywork dude, so very doubtful I'd go back to the same origin for any side plates even if they were being offered.

I have had Ron's front & read skid plates for 10 years and been offroading 4-5times with the Austin group. Plates still look good as new... I will definitely buy from Ron's creations again!

Why not just get them LineX'd. Since they are subject to damage because of where they are mounted, seems like an elegant solution. LineX would even fill in the fractures you already have so they won't spread. Your body work dude will be able to hide them but not keep them from getting worse.

I would like to order, please let me know when you are ready to sell. Thanks

[sean_grigoros]

UPDATE:

Finished the rear skidplate mold with both the REDESIGNED 'hitched' and 'non-hitched' plugs last week. Planning to bring in the mold to the local vacuum-formers to get some prices. Once that gets settled out, then I'll offer the rear plate for sale.

is that 40# foam you are using?

[ron]

is that 40# foam you are using?

Yes, 40# modulan. Used same material for previous rear skidplate mold years ago. Will probably do the same with the side plates on deck.

Love that stuff

I'm using similar 16# right now for filling voids and sculpting front edges of the Vx trailer.

Not cheap..but its good

@ Jo...Yeah i usually work with 7-10 # yellow foam for quick mockups here at work.

@ everyone else...the rear plate mold was dropped off this morning at the local vacuum formers. He's going to pull both the hitched and non-hitched versions. When i receive the parts, I'll clean them up and test fit the non-hitched version on my vx (since I have a standard hitch installed). But, will need someone (local preferred, but not necessary) who has a Tone Monday hitch to test fit the other. If all things go well, I'll offer these first two at a discount.

I have a Tone hitch if you don't find someone local.

Sounds good MH. Still awaiting the first two test pieces to be pulled from the formers any day now.

UPDATE:

First two rear plates in hitched and non-hitched version fresh from the factory. These were pulled with 1/4" black abs plastic. I'll be trimming off the extra flash material and clean up the edges a bit to test fit the non-hitch version on my vx.

As for the hitched version, Mile High, I'll get in touch with you soon w/ details.
