Frame Savers
I'm going to lower my car on stock bolts next weekend.
I'm thinking its pretty important to get frame savers.
Right now - I'm leaning towards frame savers from CCA (rocker panel protectors and FattDaddy/Momma)

Does anybody have any recommendations or opinions on FattDaddy vs. FattMamma?

Typically I tell people that if they have a lot of "up and over" situations, like speed bumps, that the FattMamma's work very well.
If you have angled approach issues, like a steep incline, that the FattDaddys are structurally more sound.
It's is just about 50/50 on which one's people choose.
Hope that helps...
Peace

I chose Fat Mommas, because of the wider contact surface. I believe they will both do the job............I just got tired of hearing those skids scrapping the driveway when going up or down..............

I just lowered mine on the stock bolts. I must get protection NOW!
How do the rocker panel protectors attach, Chip?
I may order them with the FatMammas....

Hey Rick,
They attach with 4 screws, You will need to pop a 5/32 ( really small )
starter hole.
You can find install instructions here
