And the backup camera is mostly worthless in any state with moderate or greater snow fall (especially those using salt). My camera is in a perpetual state of Road dirt fog after driving in CO or UT. From mid Sept to Mid April I do not expect to have much if any reverse camera visibility. I...
Absolutely! Although now I have to change the name of my rig to "Stink Bug" due to the shape and how far it sticks up... Like my wife said yesterday... "its no uglier than it was before the canopy"! Good thing I don't care too much about form. Function is all that matters and I think it will...
No, not me. I have not been to the Ice Park since the mid 90s'. I have climbed most everything in the area including Camp Bird area and Bird Brain Boulevard.
Install was fairly easy once I Jerry-Rigged a 2x4 Gantry with a cum-a-long. Some issues did arise. The front flange on the topper just slightly interferes with the shape of the bed causing the canopy to sit back about a quarter inch. This creates a fairly large air gap in the back door and...
I was able to get my canopy opened up and installed on my JTR. Turns out the shipping container was completely mislabeled and my White top with White doors was actually Black top with White doors. Thus my rig looks just like the others posted above. Mine also has some shipping damage where a...
I ordered an all white canopy with solid side doors (no windows) and 2 Lion boxes but not the rail system. I also have the Builtright racks so will have to make the same mods @salvino did. I just received some KC lights which I will mount inside (C2 LED Flood) and outside (C3 LED Flood).
That color does look different. Will be even more obvious on my rig as I have an all white canopy (full white JT as well). I guess I will have to repaint with pink polkadots or spend more time in the mud... The added height does not matter to me as I think the added inside head room is...
I believe there are several incorrect statements above (terminology and understanding what it means is a problem here). This is simple physics. We are dealing with force applied over a period of time (impulse). The key with all of this is to limit or reduce the peak forces that any component...
I ordered mine in July. Ship was supposed to be late August. Then late September. Then Mid to late November. I ordered it primarily because I needed it in October for hunting season. Oh well.
Looks like a great Christmas present and just in time for my next suffer fest. Headed out for a 2...
FINALLY!!!!
RLD Designs USA is shipping my shell this week. Really looking forward to getting this mounted and in use. I will post when I finally get mine on.
I estimate my trailer's empty weight to be close to 2000 lbs with all my welding edits and bigger tires. With all my camp junk and giant coolers full of ice, 2 weeks of food, and 40 gallons of water I was probably adding 1500 or more pounds. Plus the truck was full inside and mostly in the bed...
I definitely saw an increase in mpg after about 3000 miles. As my JTR sits right now my odometer is showing an average of 17.8 mpg with 12,128 miles. The last couple days have involved running all over the Denver area during rush hours so mostly sub 20 mph with our traffic and lots of stop and...
