Ain’t that a crock of shit.
Ok I'm not going crazy I took a screenshot more than a week ago of everything I want and group buy starts and the transmission skid plate is now $25 more......

We didn't actually raise the price of the transmission skid plate technically. There was a $25 option for gussets that bolt on to the center of the plate and since we literally sell them 100% of the time with that part we raised the price the $25 and now they come by default, but doing it this way we can now weld them in which is even better.
As for the Front skid plate, the price did go up $20 due to two factors:
-We made some AWESOME (but costly) upgrades to improve the plates recently
-Steel and Aluminum material prices went up 30-60% over the last MONTH
This of course was going to happen regardless of the GB, and we chose to adjust pricing only on the front as of now, both for the sake of you guys and because we are trying to hold out as long as possible without doing anything more substantial like many other vendors are having to do.

I’m looking at the full skid package and I see there’s an option for a transmission cross brace (or something like that). Does that replace the OEM mount, or what is the benefit of adding it in?
Also, are the changes to the front skid you talked about, is that on both the steel and aluminum versions? I’m looking at the aluminum ones.

Spoke with them earlier, and they do not and likely will not have aluminum skids for 3rd gens. The language was added to the description at one point as it was going to be a consideration, but the demand was not all that compelling...
All 3 plates shipped to my location in CA, powder coated, with the 15% discount, $643. For those who want the coating, a pretty good deal...

Cool, thanks for the followup on that! Sounds like this makes the aluminum vs. steel option an easy decision.
