I have an old style allpro (I think?) skid/ crossmember for 75$. In great shape if you ever come to Eugene Oregon. Hell, you can even have the tcase mounts. pm your # for pics

I like the sheer beef of the bud built set up. However that thing looks like it weighs 100lbs!!  Also, it doesn't seem to capitalize on the R10 adapters.

...why buy when you can build?
