What a cool project! Can’t wait to see how it turns out. Will that box fit in the stock cargo tray? Also, since the batteries linked are 3.2 V do you wire them in series to get to 12?
Glad I could help!
No issues with the factory system. I keep an eye on the battery voltage while driving and it hasn’t changed at all since installing. If there’s another way to monitor that I’m not aware of, please let me know. No changes in forscan
So I got this installed over the weekend. It wasn’t perfect, but I like it for $330. Don’t know if I would pay $494 for it.
pros:
-Shipping was fast
-Easy to install
-Table has UHMW plastic on areas that slide
-Cheaper than alternative
-Table has drain holes
cons:
-Packaging wasn’t great...

Thoughts? I’m glad to see there are more options after Trailrax released their sliding table. This one comes out to about $330, which is significantly less and includes the table.
Mine are SO much better now after the revalve. I haven’t done any hard off-roading, but the few easy trails I’ve taken it on it’s been night and day difference. It definitely feels sporty on the roads and less tippy off-road. I haven’t really felt the need to use the adjusters yet (have them...

Idk if you are still looking for this but I found the US distributor for this tent:

Do you think this would work with one of the spare tire platforms, like the American Adventure Lab MASS spare tire platform? Looks like it might because it is offset from the tire.
Interested to see what you come up with. I was thinking of riveting a couple L brackets to the top of the quarter panel and attaching some aluminum sheet vertically. If you have some other ideas, please let me know!
I found this when doing a little more research.
Unfortunately I will have to pass on this as it doesn’t look like it would work with standard roof top tent mounts and the water issue that was brought up
Could you take a video of yours? I’m almost 100% sure it’s seated all the way. If you look closely, you can see the bumper itself flexing in my video. I don’t think the movement is coming from the bearing.
I was surprised that it’s literally 2 pieces of the same sheet metal used for the mount, just shrink wrapped together. And for me it didn’t come close reaching my mega fuse holder. I didn’t buy one from AAL, but how different can these holders really be dimension wise?
