Default LCA skids

ok my LCA mounting tabs are bent all to hell. so i looked at the weld on LCA skids and i seriously doubt my tabs are strong enough to be bent back up and then welded on to (if im wrong please correct me) as i would like to go this route as its much cheaper than buying the skid row LCA skids. i would really like to get something down there are my tabs are beat to hell and my LCA's are starting to really take a beating.

any one have experience with the weld on lca skids? how about the skid row LCA skids.

thanks

Mine were bent and twisted from an unfortunate offroad adventure. Instead of trying to straighten out the weak stamped steel stock mounts, I cut them off and welded on a set of heavy duty LCA mounts. It took a little time to grind all the excess metal from the stock mounts off and to measure and align the new mounts but well worth the effort.
