I can't say enough good things about BudBuilt. Customer service is fantastic and the skid plate is solid. I had a bit of a problem with mine because of my body lift. No questions asked, he sent me a different one. The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that it was my mistake. I still have the old x-member. He said he figured we'd eventually find someone out here to sell it to and save them a couple of bucks on shipping. Great guy, great product. I may be wrong, but didn't he come up with the design? I'd feel better about buying the original as opposed to a copy if I had the choice.
