Lol yea 285’s. I don’t want them to stick further, I had to get these because I was getting rock chips without them and I don’t like mud flaps.

So I used my points and ordered Lund Sport flares through the dealership. However, I ended up receiving bushwhacker extended flares. But what I got was the ones withOUT the fake bolt on which is good because it not a fan of those. So...I stared at them for a bit and decided I might actually like...

Hey thanks man, I really appreciate that! I’m having a blast modding it.

Np at all. 7’ garage door Bed rack is 10” tall off the bed rails Tent is 14” tall. You should be fine I think.

Agreed. That’s why I had to add a leaf in the rear as soon as I lifted the front.

Also, yes it clears my garage door by about an inch...:whew:

A few pictures with the RTT mounted. Yes I did plan for the overhang. I needed the xl version of the Condor to fit my family of four.

Next step in the build is the fridge setup. I initially had bought a GZ Yeti 400 lithium but I returned it and have decided to build my own auxiliary battery using 190ah raw LifePO4 cells and a 3D printed box to hold it, the BMS, and I’ll have 4 usb and 2 12v sockets flush mounted on the top. It...

Thanks Phil! Quite a compliment coming from someone with much more experience than myself. I’m trying my best to do everything the right way with no shortcuts. Though many will probably scoff at me having decided to drill holes through my rails.

It’s dark but I grabbed a pic of both the top and bottom. You’ll see that if I use a bar and drill my own holes off center, I can actually go a tad wider than what the washers allowed.

Hi Phil, Yes I did use a fender washer underneath. I used the largest diameter that would fit in the ~1” space. That is only temporary as I actually plan to use some aluminum bar in its place in the near future. I’ll likely use a 3” long section for each bolt so that I have a full 3 sq in of...

Finally got the rack painted and put on. Only slightly intimidating drilling six holes through my bed rails but it’s done.

Hey Andy, I'm sorry that I totally forgot to do this for you. I'll grab you measurements when I get home from work today. I'll also grab some pics for you so you can get a better idea for where you're going to have clearance issues.

Thanks for the kind words! I’m using a Trigger 4 Plus. It’s a wireless system that prevents you from having to run any wires into the cab. It’s available from a number of places so I won’t link it, just search for it and find the best price.

FINALLY got my rack. Now to paint it black this weekend. I’ll post up more pics once it’s done and I get my RTT mounted on it. Here she is all naked.

I went with 17” as it seems to be somewhat universally used for off-road setups and gives a little more side wall than 18” wheels I had on stock. On the bracket, no the grill doesn’t have to come off, only the cowl on the support beam.

So for the factory painted parts, I only scuffed with 1000 grit. However, for the chrome parts, I scuffed with 400 then smoothed them out with 1000 as they were noticeably harder and the 1000 wasn't doing much. Of course I clean with mineral spirits prior to scuffing then rubbing alcohol after...

They were super easy actually. I just hit them with a heat gun and they peeled right off, no residue left behind.

Ha! Come on! I could use some Ranger buddies anyways!

Rear is on.
