i called BesTop about my issues installing and they told me that they haven't had a single complaint about theses, yet when i look online i see nothing but complaints with poor fitment. They gave me 50% off because I had to modify it to make it fit (Thanks dremel!) but i lost the daylight and...
You're absolutely right. I'm an idiot and have no idea what I'm talking about. As you suggested, i don't know anything. I haven't ridden in my vehicle with the sway bars both disconnected and connected on the same trails, beaches, and fire roads. My knowledge and personal experience on the...
i run a mojave with 35s and a sway bar disconnect, and i lightly brush the inner fender liners on full articulation with wheels straight ahead while disconnected.
Given the choice between running larger tires and having a sway disconnect, i'll take the sway disconnect every day and twice on sunday.
Probably my post. Between uninstall of the factories (about 4 minutes), phone calls to BesTop (48 minutes), dremeling, test fitting, more dremeling, and just trying to make it all fit with a hammer (final resort but also one encouraged by BesTop) I'm 4.5 hours into this project. Had to stop...
@Bestop,
Man, do I love your sunrider for hardtop. it's 1 of 2 items i consider absolute must buys for any gladiator owner with a hardtop (the other is doorless mirrors)
But man, you gotta work on some other stuff. I am so wildly frustrated with the two (so far) manufacturing defects i've...
That's even worse. Canceling sale orders when you're not out of stock? Garbage. I love their sunrider for hardtop but this kind of shenanigan gives the company a poor image.
happy my slidersteps shipped, sad to hear other are getting shafted. This is very obviously looking like a clearance sale. How hard is it to figure out "hey we're discontinuing this item, we have 15 left to sell, don't take orders for more than 15"?
Bad look for Bestop. It's really not that...

I've owned a few and driven many more 4x4s. For example: the new Bronco (that is famously not SFA) also gets herky jerky when turning tightly with too much traction at the wheels in 4hi.
you're breaking your truck. please read your owners manual for proper usage of 4hi.
Your previous truck either had the 5 position (4A) transfer case, or was busted and you were driving around in 2wd without knowing it.
certainly falls under the category of "Neat!"... but it's difficult to think of a single place on earth all that horsepower is more useless than snow and ice.
Mods i couldn't live without:
sunrider, lange originals coyote mirrors, tonneau
mods i wouldn't want to live without:
armorlite, apex autolynx, arb twin on-board, diode dynamics elite headlights, diode dynamics 3k fogs, katzkin leather, bolt hood lock, rokblokz
mods i could have done without...
That's a very long-winded post just to avoid saying you thought the fake hood scoop was prettier.
Side note: if you're really dropping something from AMW into this truck, you should be getting new axles as well, which means putting in lockers is trivial at that point. and since you're already...
CAFE is part of the equation too.
CAFE standards have leniencies for larger wheelbases, forcing trucks to either become more efficient or get bigger. Well, you've seen the evolution of trucks over the last 30 years, it should be pretty obvious which route the mnfrs chose to take.
