Eve skid system install 2012 issue
Well I installed my evo skid system last night and while it is a very nice unit and covers all of the parts I need it too the install did not go all that easy. All was ok until it came time to install the cross member portion. this part has 7 holes in which 5 need to line up exactly and guess what they did not. The bolts at the gas tank skid where 1/16 off and the hole for the center was off as well. I know I cross threaded at least 2 bolts trying to wiggle the in a little off but the two bolts holes at the gas skid had to be enlarged with a grinder to make it work.
All and all I would buy it again but I was surprised that on something that requires such a exact fitment that it was not correct or at least slightly slotted holes for some give.
As a Sid note my jeep is 1.5 months old and never wheeled (except for a mud puddle or two) so nothing has gotten tweaked from the trail yet
