I had the front wheels on ramps, did not need rachet straps or any support for the tank. Used a floor jack and the packing foam. If you leave the front strap on, you can get the back of the skidplate loosely connected (two bolts) then take the front strap out. I had the jack centered so the skid...
I just installed this two weeks ago on my Wildtrak. Kind of tricky by yourself, the packing actually made great props to help hold it until I could get the bolts in. Pretty simple install. Loosen the bolts holding the existing straps, take the rear strap completely off, get the skid loosely...
Don't let it worry you. After I shimmed mine, I've had zero problems. No overheating, and I'm in Texas. I love the product, it's become my second favorite modification. (Behind a mObridge amp.) If you do have vibration it's a very simple fix.
The same hoist goes by several different brand names and is inexpensive. You have total control so I feel it's safer than something electric. I have to open the release pawl by hand to bring mine down, but it's no big deal. Probably because the top is light and I had to run my lines at an angle...
I am installing the stage series pocket fog light setup from Diode Dynamics. I am connecting the fogs to the factory harness and headlight switch via a pigtail. To run the amber backlights, I will need to tap the pigtail into the wiring harness that came with the light set. I have a couple of...
I used the tape that came with it, didn't work very well and I wound up using two of the very tiny screws that were in the accessory kit to attach it to the plastic. I have some 3M tape now that I got for the sensors on my winch. I'm using that for the front camera and it's a stuck on solid...
I got it installed. Didn't take long to disconnect stuff and pull it out of the original grommet. I did wind up donating a socket via a black hole under the engine. Sounded like it made it all the way to the skid plate, but I couldn't find it. Same thing happened when I installed my winch a...
If you get the accessory kit, it comes with the OEM style windshield mount, hardwire kit, license plate bracket, additional camera mounts, spare screws, and more. It's worth it just for the windshield mount, I consider that a mandatory component. I was back in it several times for parts as I...
There is more than enough cable. I mounted mine on the roll bar to keep it out of the weather. I left enough slack to relocate it to the spare tire later if I decide to do that.
Don’t worry about glare. If you can’t see the display, it will function as a conventional mirror.
My front camera...
I tried the glare filter. It worked, but significantly diminished the quality of the display and eliminated the ability to use the reflection as a conventional mirror. In direct sunlight the display went completely white. I couldn't stand it and removed it after a couple of days. I keep my top...
I have the Tripro, you won't regret it. The display is crystal clear and eliminates a lot of blind spots. After dark, you can see lots more than the factory mirror, the newer camera fixed the problems with quality. It's almost like having night vision. The display can wash out in bright sunlight...
