Not gonna lie, I’m now secretly wishing both those things had played out: 1) she’d have sent it and 2) if the guy’d have toasted a fine wheel. Thinking this may have been a much different story you’d be telling us about. Haha. 🍿 I will say tho, instructing him how to air those things down would...
So wait a min… is that a stock wheel then? With 4.75 backspace and no offset and you’re still getting that much poke? Or is it a wider wheel.
And BTW, that’s an awesome experience for the Mrs. Way cool that she’s into it and a huge confidence builder. Apologies for not acknowledging before now.
Actually, maybe I’m looking at this all wrong. A guy could simultaneously flash his mancard while passing you with this setup behind a 2dr:
or this
Or this perhaps
Quick rant: My take is peeps need to make logic be their guide while towing. Just b/c it has a tow rating and a receiver, many folks think the limiting factor is HP to pull. Being blunt, is it’s not about whether or the rig can pull it or not. It’s about how safely it can pull it and making...

Yeah, not much limestone geology in my neck of the woods. Mostly sandstone, granite, shale altho there are random pockets of alkali clay. I like to drive a 100mi mtn backroad between two of my properties that the interstate parallels. This day I drove dirt on the way there, rain hit on the...
110# isn’t bad. And yeah, I’d continually forget setting my coffee mug down on it. Way too inviting looking. Haha. I really like how yours give a nod to Gen1’s modded with wide tires on white dishes. You have a perfect amount of poke I think. Did you add spacers for that? Different offset on...
**Fixed**And You’re correct. My dealer had it itemized as a tonneau enclosure, but install manual calls it a Deck Enclosure. Made by Tuffy Products, licensed for Ford.
Edited to add:
I’m afraid wiping with oil isn’t a great solution for me as I drive dirt roads constantly. Anything with a...
To clarify, tie down rings are SS but the bolts are just blackened steel. Not anodized or painted. Think I only need to replace the bolts but still find it poor quality on their part.
I really like what you’ve done with both rigs, but I gotta say, the bumper on your green one is the thickest bumper I think I’ve ever seen. I’m sure it’s bomb proof, but what’s dry weight on that thing?
I picked up the FP Tonneau at truck delivery 1.5 yrs ago and really like it. Thing was expensive but I like the look, solid constriction, molle side panels and has the back compartment completely secure once door is locked with top off. Awesome…. until now.
So, last week I hit my first impromptu...
They either need to modify it to whatever works for their program (likely tone it down) or doze it off the course completely. It’s been down for a year now and I’m thinking it’s more disappointing to participants to see it and not be able to hit it than it is eye candy.
Full agree. What blows me away is how unlikely it would have been to find a willing buyer for the cross pillar on the open market. I mean, I guess there’d be guys rebuilding a wrecked braptor, maybe guys who modified their pillar for a soft top and want a solid spare. But other than for a...
Ya, had issues with JTops, mainly how hard they shut me down on making a canvas Bimini to keep rain and dust out of the cab, which with your back window solution would be my ideal fix to my dust problem. I even offered to have them custom make it, and it wasn’t just a “No”, but a “no, never, and...
I like the concept. Question is are you thinking of only producing a few of these or are you bringing a product to market? You make it sound like price can come down if demand justifies it, which makes me wonder if you’re overlooking the much bigger 4 door Jeep segment to offer this to as...
Handy solution. I’ve got roughly the exact set up (minus your new window) and I’d consider this more to block rolling dust sucked from the back into the cab on dirt roads. Question tho: with Bestops mesh Bimini it looks to me like you're blocking rain by just installing your removable front...
There’s plenty of threads here talking about how that cross pillar doesn’t exactly work with the OEM soft top on Braptor. Most folks made a slight modification to make it work but sounds like your previous owner just pulled it and sold it. Beyond safety, I’m not sure how necessary it is although...
Ya, not suggesting it so much only out of courtesy to OP but more so how your question can benefit many others looking for the same thing later. I find what makes this forum a great resource is folks sharing info. So later on, when I’m searching a part no. on a left UCA, I’m finding it in its...
I don’t tell folks what to do, but if it’s me, on this I’d start a new thread (as not to hijack this one) and see if @Ducati1098 or others can help locate the part #. I’d then take that straight to @flip at Ruxer to quote price with shipping. $10 says he gets it to you both faster and cheaper...
