show me the roll pans

Since my back bumper is rusting and has bubbles under the paint, i figure i will replace it with a roll pan. I would like to see a few of them and how they work with the rest of the truck before I make a purchase. show me the pics please.

Tim, while ive got your attention. Do you know what the pinion angle is supposed to be on our trucks or the optimum angle? Have you done any research on this?

Thanks for the info. How does the Sir Mike's compare to the stock one in terms of weight? It looks heavy.

I don't know the correct pinion angle off the top of my head. I'm sure that a search here or at NLOC will turn up the answer pretty quickly.

Sir michaels hitch is about half the weight if not more than half. Big time improvement over the bulky stock piece. I towed my buddies lawn trailer around for a couple of months with no problems. Its been on for about two years now. I can take some installed photos for anyone that is interested. Ill check out the forums and see what i can find on the pinion angle.

IIRC, -3 degrees of pinion angle was optimum for getting the truck to hook on launch. kinda pulling this number out of my butt, but i'm pretty sure thast what it was
