Has anyone purchased a artech armor kit for their D30. I ain't got the money to purchase a pr44 so I'm stuck with my D30. So I need to strengthen it. Just curious if anyone got this and enjoys it or regrets it.

I got it for my d44. It's awesome and looks strong as hell. So yourself a favor, find someone that can weld like a champ before buying it. It requires heating the pumpkin and welding the cast. It's do able, but a PITA.



My bench fit of pieces. I'll post a done photo tomorrow.

I put one on my d30 + they're C-gussets the fit was good. Follow the instructions and pre & post heat cast and go slow .

Welder isn't the problem for me. Just wanna make sure it's worth it. Cuz I'm figuring that kit and a set of sleeves should let me wheel 35s just fine.

Sgt Mack

Sleeves and truss are solid. Most people I've talked to would only do one. The key to it all is the C's.

I was going to get the Evo c's and sleeves then I seen this and the price to right. So I'm thinking this and nitro sleeves will work great.

Sgt Mack

Nitros will let you run 35spline shafts in the future. Evo sleeves will not work with 35s.

That's another reason why I'm picking the nitros.
