I'm no GT40 expert, but I don't remember a single one having a "5.0L N/A V8", nor the Ford GT. Still unsure how manhood is affected by cylinder count, but the 660 Horsepower output of the 3.5L HO 6 Cylinder in the current GT is impressive.
I bought one additional OEM wheel and installed 5 skinny 35's (35x11.50). I do 5 tire rotations and the spare fit's in the under bed location with no issue. I've had too many tire related issues in remote locations that a plug and air compressor would not solve, so I always carry a spare.
I don't have a crossbed, but did remove the front trail rail to keep the box as far back as possible. One big thing to note if you decide to remove the rail - Jeep inexplicably used an incredibly strong double sided tape in addition to the mounting hardware to secure the trail rail. I had to...
This is what I have found highly useful:

I have carried High Lift Jacks for many years, and they have got me out of some situations, but they are not great for replacing a...
I own both. I've got a 2017 Tacoma as well as the gladiator. I put 50k miles on the Tacoma and my son is currently driving it. I've only got 6k miles on my Jeep. I've not had a single problem with either, though the Jeep is only months old. I'm not one of the folks that hates the driving...
I did the same Weather Guard box. I'll add that it came with some "Blind anchors" that fit in the bed for mounting. They are pretty slick from the standpoint that it should be easy to remove, if need be. I was trying to think of different ways to mount using the trail rail or some other way that...
I didn't vote in the poll because I don't have any experience with the soft top. I will say that I love the Sunrider so far. It's just so easy to put up and down. The only issue I have is that there needs to be a retractable sunshade available for it (especially for where you live!)
"When you engaged select speed did it sound like a grinding noise or parts struggling to move? It always makes a noise of concern when I have tried to use this feature. Is that just the brakes being applied all the time?"
I believe that's the ant-Lock braking system being used to control...

It's the Evo 2.5" Enforcer Overland. I've only driven it for two days, but so far it seems to handle all on-road situations really well. I've been on very bumpy county roads and 80 MPH on the Interstate. I'm on...
Looks like an awesome setup! I was hoping you could answer a few questions:
- Are you happy with the quality of the Evo system? My builder is recommending I go with them, so I'm looking at a 2.5" Enforcer Overland setup with basic King 2.0" to run 35" tires.
- On road handling and steering...
