Default D90 style steering damper and steering skid guards

anyone relocated the steering damper up front and put a steering skid plate as well.. was wondering if there was a clearance issue between the skid plate and the damper? thanks in advance...

Our skidplate does not interfere with the steering damper relocation kit at all.

I have a skid plate and heavy duty steering rods from DAP. I have no interference problems with the relocated steering damper.

Nomar, I have the very same damper relocator setup on my RRC.. I was just afraid that where the damper bolts on would get in the way of where the skids would bolt on.. hmmmmm
