New Calmini products????
« on: March 09, 2006, 09:25:25 PM »
So has anyone else noticed that Calmini's website has been down for the past 2 days.  I'm wondering if they have new products coming out like Trail Tough (they've got new bumpers and sliders).

I was going to start a new thread but this is perfect

I recently acquired a Calmini front, Transmission, and t-case Skids.  What I failed to aquire were the bolts and washers and what not.  Does anyone know what the respecive bolt sizes are?

Also, the t-case skid came off a 2 dr and I have a 4dr.  Does anyone know the difference, will it bolt up the same or do I need to modify something?

Any help is greatly appreciated

I am in the process of getting the steering stabilizer setup to mount the front skid as well

I think you may have to attempt to give calmini a call for all that info.  Who knows what they use.

So Trailtough is now showing a front lockright for the sidekick too...

Called Calmini and am waiting for a response to let me either get the instructions which should have a parts list on it or sell me the bolts and stuff

In the interim, does anyone have the intructions for the Calmini skid plates?

Not exactly instructions but if you look way, way back in the article archives we have some installation photos and comments that took place during the build of project tricker kicker. Maybe that'll help.

Thanks for the links  I think I'll try to wing it since I spoke with Calmini yesterday and were packing up 3 weeks of backorders.  No worries hopefully they will give me a copy of the installation instructions or something when they can

Persistence pays   I was able to contact Calmini and the set of bolts nuts and what not are $13 so I ordered a steering stabilizer and am having them shipped with it.  I'll post the sizes in case anyone ever has the need for them when I get them
