What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Technically did this last weekend, forgot to take pics as garage time was running out and had Dad duties.

Lost one screw during the install, luckily it came with one extra.

Raingler Ceiling Attic Net:

How did we know this would happen? :welcome:
 
Got my new BudBuilt sliders today! Doing my own painting.

HELL. YES. Any details on this? That's amazing!

Obviously remove spare tire. You will also need to remove chain and bracket (but not the actually pulley system). Then you need to purchase these parts:

x1 Mounting Plate
https://www.amazon.com/RotopaX-RX-U...s=rotopax&qid=1554185891&s=automotive&sr=1-11

And any combination of the following mounts:

Lock

Deluxe
https://www.amazon.com/RotopaX-RX-D...4CW70CEMWQ1&psc=1&refRID=DS7HRPMQY4CW70CEMWQ1

3 holes on the mounting plate will align with holes on the under side of the frame. Run to your favor hardware store and purchase whatever nuts and bolts your heart desires.
 
Looks interesting! On the manifold; is the blue one another coupler? Then the brass next to it is an overpressure relief? Or is that where you are bleeding all 4 down from? Maybe add another shraider port on the manifold and then you could screw one preset tire deflator onto that, they come with 4 so you could have 4 different presets.

You are correct, brass is overpressure relief so as not to put more pressure in then the lines are rated for. Blue is where the bleeding happens. I could put another shraider or 3 on there but, I like having the option to air down to whatever pressure instead of being limited to 4 presets. That's just me though :hello:

Very clever, nice setup!

That is great news. Wonder if it would still work once I get my C4 rear bumper on.

Also, any chance of you getting a photo of the mounting hardware with Rotopax off?

Thanks, man! Looks great.

Thanks but it was another forum members idea several years back. Just surprised I havent seen more people with it...

I will try and post a picture before I head out to Utah this weekend
 
Light bar vinyl and MaxTrax mounts

Finally installed the MaxTrax pin mounts to my OEM roofrack. Set-up works nicely.

Also laid down yellow Lamin-X over the 25" light bar. Will install the light bar next weekend with the C4 lo pro bumper. Not sure why it looks wavy along the bottom but the product is amazing and worth every cent.

2 day reprieve

Wife and I took a little trip to Ray Roberts State Park for a couple of days.
Still a little cool out but still had a great time.
