mod. class, 30' "A" build up

I'm no fabricator but I would(did) skin the underside of the ram protector in .375 Alum.

Weld tabs to the inside of the hoops and drill corresponding holes in yer plate,countersink the bolt heads and voila!! Light,burl easily removable protection.

I skinned the underside of the axle to the closest hoop with 1/4"x6" and teh first to second hoop with 3/16". I also added a mounting point for hooking up to my winch.
 
a few pics of the front axle and skid plate on it
