I had an issue when I was playing with Forescan where the dash speed limits disappeared entirely. I was trying to get Stop and Go with speed limit recognition to work, and assumed that was the cause. I put everything back and it was working fine. Then I just re-activated the stop and go portion...
Great video Mark. Thanks for sharing it. Is that the Rough Country high winch mount on the Bronco. Doesn’t seem to slow you down any. Looks good.
*Found it on your website. Very cool. If it bolts to the Mod bumper and is compatible with ACC, I want one.
Hello,
I’d like to cover the leather power seats in my Lux Badlands 4 door, and now’s the time to find something. Unfortunately im having a challenge finding a cover set that will work with the power seats. For some reason Coverking specifically says “for manual seats” as their only options...
Well that is fantastic customer service. Quick and thorough. It looks like you’ll have to be the one to carry the experiment with the RCI’s. I too found a the ARB’s for under $300 new. The vendor doesn’t have a very good track record so it will be interesting to see if they ever show, but for...
This sounds like words of wisdom. But the NVM’s are ordered. For me avoiding the New England corrosion pushed me in the aluminum skid direction. Time will tell how foolish that decision was:). I was also giving thought to the arb or metal-tech as possible solutions to my NVM dilemma. Both are...
Well, I’m pretty sure getting the belly skid installed first is going to make getting the backside hardware in place for the sliders very difficult or impossible. Especially on the passenger side. I will say it appears that the LOD usage of nut sticks from the bottom or inside the frame might...
No, I haven’t reached out to RCI. I’m not sure what to even ask them. Most of their information is posted in their install pdf.
I’ll use this thread to document my thought process and ultimately my results. Part “thinking out loud”, part sharing my thought process for others, part soliciting...
The thing that killed this for me was it seems the fasteners that secure the door are accessible externally. I understand the deterrent aspect, but it isn’t secure enough for my intent.
Yeah. To me they aren’t really frame mounted, likely because they were trying to avoid the belly skids. I like how they have the bottom plate and the uhmw, but they’ve left the top open and where I live, it’s mud and rock. Those sliders will just scoop mud. I suppose if they did do a top plate...
Yes. From what I can gather there will be significant intererence. If I mount the sliders first, the NVM plates will hang lower, and sections that should mount flush against the frame will obviously not be doing so in places where there’s no slider mounting plates behind them.
If I mount...
Hello,
With Black Friday upon us, I’m getting ready to get some armor ordered, but I came across a potential problem. I’m bouncing between two sliders with most of the features I prefer. I like the RCI because of the rear bump out, and the LOD Signatures due to the bottom slide plates. Both...
I chose a Stonsho. Looks good, easy to install, and easier to un-install. It should work until I end up with winch mounted fairlead option.

Well, of coarse Black Friday is quickly approaching. There’s also apps like OfferUp, Craigslist, and Facebook Marketplace. In fact, mere weeks after I bought my IAG v2’s and RokBlokz, an identical set of V2’s and RokBlokz showed up on marketplace for much cheaper lol. Taught me a lesson. Look...
I’ll be that guy I guess. No one would leave their child free in the back of their vehicle. Even with a tether attached to a collar around their necks or even some untested cheap harness. Yet, many seem to think it’s adequate for a dog. Even if you don’t care about your dog, 70 pounds un-secured...
It’s interesting to me that of all the boxes people seem to want checked, rarely do I see airbag compatible listed? I personally didn’t know better until I bought an ARB for another truck. I was blown away by the mounts to the Unibody (R50 Nissan Pathfinder) they built. They had a built in...
Also, I reached out to ARB USA (they have pretty responsive CS), their reply was they state 10k because that’s the highest they tested it to. The Warn Zeon 12k and 10k are the same size physically.
One thing about aging I’ve actually learned to enjoy. Watching the popular culture shift back and forth on various topics. At least in my general socioeconomic group. I remember when the manufacturers and insurance industry were lobbying the politicians. When Regan’s “deregulation” policies...
I bought the Redline Elites during a recent Amazon sale. I appreciated the detailed and colored instructions, written in effective English. I also found the packing to be thoughtful (Redlines, not Amazons lol). The fittings and strut body appear to be of good quality. Lastly, the simple...
