VERY NICE ^ thx for the pics! That thing looks like it could stop a rocket.

Im thinking about the design...compound angles and use either thin aluminum or that honeycomb composite I see road racers make their undertrays with.

Grind the heads of those bolts to a point and youre well on your way to 1st place zombie slaying machine, LOL!

Yes actually in all of them it is
It's supported from behind and front the front and so is everything else
I boxed in the crumple zones on the frame with 1/2 inch
I boxed all the holes in my suspension left from the lift with 1/4 inch plates
There's just so much reinforcement
