Markbo Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 That is very good. I was thinking 8 to 10 bolts like the factory unit. And those poppers wear out way quick. A skid plate and a chin spoiler would sure make the front end happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caramall2 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I just have 2 bolts up front and one in the back middle...that's it. It's very sturdy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a93x Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 RalliTek just released the legacy skid plate back into production. Looks to be very functional with the cut out for the filter and drain plug. Also looks to be very sturdy with solid protection surrounding it. torque impresses girrls, hp impresses flat-bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGPKR Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I'm doing this once I can find a local source for the aluminum plate... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Here's a thread i found with pictures of another plate i've been thinking of replicating: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/125720-light-bar-brush-guard-bull-bar-skid-plate/ that's quite the setup, especially with the winch setup.

Flinkly Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 yeah, i was going to see about replicating the center bar and front cross beam (and skid plate). all the stuff that is actually under the car. not gonna replicate the winch and lightbar. * Build Thread * 26.53 MPG - 12 month Average * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13fido13 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Only problem I see with that is wiring for your lights. You would have to disconnect them every time. Also weight would be increased on the bottom as well as a reduction in ground clearance. Awesome looking product. Looks really well built. Makes me wish I had a shop like that to be able to fab stuff up properly. I mounted my light bar to my front bumper beam. I added some lightening holes to the beam in order to attach them properly.

13fido13 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I gave you measurements already!!! Just have to cut out what doesn't belong! lol. I honestly won't take it off until spring. That's probably my next oil change. In the nicer weather I'll get you some specs. Just remind me. We seriously have 3 feet of snow right now. Maybe more in some places.
