Odd that some folks have installed over stiffeners without any modifications needed to the tie ins and some have had issues. So far I have seen folks with both Ruff stuff and hooligan stiffeners install without issue.

Keep the pics coming Guys!

Great, so CavFab acknowledges there are some install issues for some people that have frame stiffeners in place. Do they offer a solution or option to add two more crush sleeves and two more longer bolts to go through the frame rails?

Where is my CavFab shirt for being one of the preorder guys?

Alright Guys,

Lead times are low now for the Alpha setups. We managed to get a few nicer shots showing off the X-Member.

Yeah just think of all the free advertising you're missing out on since we don't have our shirts!

Well not free, but very cheap. I do have people ask me about my Adams offroad and driveshaft shirt all the time.

Oh yes! In fact they just introduced WJ steering kit for those who swap out to WJ knuckles... they must think that's more important than finishing the t case skid design...

I'm sure I'll be up the creek since I have a clocked tcase. Probably won't make a flatter option.

We are still planning to release T-case skids and pre-order guys will be getting these at essentially material cost.

I will get T-shirts out to you guys. If addresses have changed send them to me, please.

Its actually a bit faster to design and produce something thats nearly identical to a product you already make then it is to completely engineer a fresh product that will be as effective as we want it to be.


As the demand for our products has taken off we have had essentially 0 time to step aside to pause normal production to finish designing and prototyping several parts we anticipated to release much sooner, but it will still happen.
