Looks awesome - consider the brake calipers in orange - subtle but might also look cool.

SO when is the turbo upgrade, intercooler, exhaust, and tune getting installed. Ya know because its a Mach 1? Unless of course you are going for this stock 2.8 V6 styled beast.

Any lift to fit the 315/70R17? Obviously you have to remove the crash bars, but any rubbing? This is the first 315 install I have seen with the Optional Badlands wheels and there is a few people that need to know what it takes to get it to work.
no lift or level on the stock Badlands suspension. I did pull the crash bars. The tire just barely touches the upper control arm at full left.

Honestly… I expected to hate it.

BUT, pleasantly surprised. Looks great!

What were your thoughts on the Trail Armor rocker covers. I was thinking about getting those for my Cactus Gray Wiltrack (still at Dirt Mountain). I have the OEM side steps so I'm unsure of if it will look better or not. They are pretty expensive pieces of plastic.
they fit nicely behind the RB20’s, but I had to notch out for the brackets on the pinch weld. if you don’t have running boards they would probably look nice, but with the boards it was too much black and looked awkward. The factory running boards sit lower than the RB20’s so it might be OK. They won’t hold water in the seam, which a lot of people are worried about.

Your rig looks great! I have the Badlands with the option wheels and KO2’s. Has the bigger tire affected the ride and handling in anyway? Is there any poke with the standard flares? What engine/trans do you have?

You may have already addressed this and I missed it, but did you have to remove the factory rock rails?

i really like how those RB20s look, and my wife would appreciate a step, haha.

the tread lines up almost perfectly with the flare. I can see sidewall and the shoulder blocks, but not the tread. Ride is about the same, maybe a little more sensitive to grooves in the road. I have the 2.7
