Binding alumimum skid plate?(pics)
How do I find out the angle I need to bind the skid so it will mount to my SL crossmember? We have a break machine up at work to bind the skid but I need to find out how many degrees to bind it....what is the best way to find out?
Heres a few pics of the skid so far....I cut it with a cut-off wheel and mess up once....nothing I cant fix though
Pics of where I need to bind it...
Anyone that knows the best way to do this let me know....thanks

Got the plate bent right the first time around so heres the pics so far.....
A few pics of it on the truck held by C-clamps....
My plan is to blot a piece of 1in flat bar to the top of the skid and fab some brackets to bolt to my old tow hooks mounts. I am bolting steel cause I cant weld aluminum. The bottom will bolt directly to the SL crossmember.

Mine is mostly for looks. If and when I ever get to go offroading again I doubt Ill run into anything that skids are required. I like aluminum cause you dont have to paint it or worry about it rusting.
