As an off roadie newb and having broken in the new ride, I decided to run what I thought would be a really tame county “road” here in Alabama called 600.1. Turns out, it’s not a softie route (at least not for a rookie like me). Every time I thought I might scrape a skid plate or catch a hard...

Heard about people mounting the control box on the metal plate under the steering wheel dash panel but never saw a pic. Mounted mine today on the backside, lower half of the panel. The panel has beads in it so I made sure the top and bottom strips of Velcro were attaching to those high points...

Thanks everyone!

Will the OEM skid plates bolt up to the Wildtrak bash plate and capable bumper? Trying to figure out if the Wildtrak bash plate works with other skids- OEM or aftermarket... Let me also ask- can you get the OEM gas tank skid by itself?

You can visually check- see how far up or down your latch is in relation to the striker on the body. Should be fairly close to the middle. Mine was high so the latch/ striker were basically picking the door up right as it closed. My guess is, they took off the striker and bashed it with a hammer...

Had to get the dealer to adjust the drivers side door alignment and the passenger front door latch. Drivers door was almost touching the quarter panel when opened and the passenger door was clanky closing. Happy to say they did a nice job. The drivers door had to move rearward about 4mils

That cooler full of the right beverages will help.

FWIW- 90% of bronco owners aren't likely to ride any trails that require frame mounted sliders. About the same percentage won't need $3k worth of lightbar output or 37s or full skid plates or true beadlock rims or a supercharger or a $3k PPF wrap...

Yep. I do think you would give up more ground clearance with the clips ons but they are easy enough to remove if needed.

Completely cover? No. Do they stick out visually like they did without sliders- definitely no. They probably cover better as they do angle up slightly (5 degrees) where the rhinos are flat and hang lower. If it helps provide perspective, I'm not planning to paint or cover the pinch welds after...

Some people really want the extra piece of mind with frame mounted sliders- which RCI offers. The counter point may be stories of people waiting 9 weeks or longer to get their sliders from RCI. I have no idea if that's still happening. I've also read that communication about wait times or...

Package weight from UPS listed it as 95lbs total. I would say 45-47lbs each is probably close...

I figured they would be good but underestimated them until I got them installed. And install was super easy. Two five gallon buckets to rest them on and get them close to the holes, get one side bolt started, the other side and then all six per side. Maybe 15 minutes per side by myself.

These sliders are BEEFY and incredibly well finished. Pictures don’t do these things justice. The angle makes them tuck perfectly to the body, maintains a bunch of ground clearance and look phenomenal. Again, no pics online really show how good they look installed. Just buy them- you’ll be...

Depends on your definition of older and "way it should be done." CNC manufacturing is also cheaper and more scalable due to the lack of labor required. Never intimated they were of poor quality- the manufacturing process they use is cheaper and they don't ship assembled- that's why a $1000 price...

Feel free to ignore my opinion- especially if it hurts your feelings somehow. If you think it's a fair price- part with your money. There is at least one rack selling now that is in excess of $1000 and causes MICs to sag so maybe price isn't the best indication of quality and value.

I prepaid for my GOAT Fab sliders that weren't in stock- not my favorite thing to do- I think unless they need the cash to make the product, they shouldn't charge you until it ships. Goat did hit the timeframe promised and its currently on the way so it all worked out in the end. BUT- I still...

I might be able to attend. I’m an off-road newb so I’d need to take tame trails- need to learn more and not tear up my Bronco- yet…

Am I the only person who thinks $700+ for a half rack is ludicrous? I'd really like to find a quality half-rack solution but for that kind of money- hard pass. I'm not picking on TrailRax - most of these are silly expensive including the RCI one that apparently makes the MIC sag in the middle.

Built 5/11. Took delivery July 26th. Hopefully you get it by Halloween.
