I'd almost trade you even for that bj42 for my truck

To answer your questions no a budbuilt won't fit. You would need a custom made skid plate or a frontrange skidplate. Also you will need to cut more sheet metal. My thoughts are the same as yours and I ended up with the 0 degree adapter do to I wanted cut as little as possible. I'm running front range dual stick and the budbuilt skid plate.  I'm happy so far and haven't seen any down side yet. Hope this helps
