So, I emailed that vendor (xrc-tech), showed him your pictures and asked him to confirm. This was his response.
Is he talking about this "s-curve" piece?
I'm going to email him back with just this photo and see what he says.
Thank you so much for this!!
Just to verify, Is #48 the same as in this picture? It doesn't look quite the same on the arm, so just seeking validation.
I did end up snapping off the head of the very first screw I tired to screw in. I didn't have any tools to remove it, so I brought it to my local Ford body shop. They were incredibly kind to remove the one that had broken off and clean out the other holes in the bed for free in about 15 mins...
Thanks for pioneering this. This is really going to be a great solution if it works out.
When you went twist off the OEM mirror, did you use a channel lock?
I was going to, but I couldn't figure out a grip where I would end up scratching/mangling the bracket.
Then, when I realized that Wolfbox...
I will, though I probably won't be getting the new Wolfbox until the spring (when I'll need it).. When I throw my SkyCamp on my truck and a Yakima Lock-n-Load below it.
I just thought I'd follow up to show how it turned out.
The tonneau cover does leak, but I know that I didn't do a great job of adjusting it. It's cold here in Wisconsin, i'm just going to fix it in the spring.
It works for now. I also picked up a SkyCamp 3 to put on the Overahaul HD bars in the...
Thanks, great writeup!
My deal breaker was strapping it over the existing mirror.
I just don't like that option. I'd rather have a bracket that would allow the mirror to attach directly.
I figure someone will make one eventually.
Evening fellas.
I just received my Retrax XR Pro and I'm installing it.
I was hoping for a little advice regarding that foam seal that has the adhesive that they send before I commit to the install.
Does it stick well to the spray in liner, or will I need some other adhesive?
You mentioned that the 60" would fit the back.
I'm looking at some Skyline towers (as opposed to the Overhaul Towers).
Do you think the 60"s would work on those for the Ranger (right on the rail, I mean)
I'm a little nervous because I can't tell if the Skyline towers stick out into the bed and...
Do you mind if I ask where you had it in the shop at?
I'm a little paranoid that mine is starting to sound like your initial video.
I've taken a couple of cold start videos, but I can't tell.
I was debating on having Apple Ford, Apple Valley take a look, but would consider a different shop if...
Wow! That's great to know. Thanks!
Where in the cab did you end up installing the charger?
Did you have to take off a bunch of trim or just the sill plate and just fish the wire underneath?
Thanks!
Oh, hrm.. That doesn't bode well.
I also won't need the alternator/charger until spring, so I probably won't purchase it until then. Please keep us informed when you get it installed. I know that I'll be curious how it works. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback!
I did just pull the trigger on purchasing the unit only.
I'm betting it will work just fine. It seems like a really awesome power bank. I'm excited to test it out.
