Hi, I have the Thule Force XT XL on mine and love it. Between the sliders and the crossbars, there are plenty of mounting combinations.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a safe way to mount a 33x9.5x15 spare wheel/tire on the TrailRax TRMR. I would like to avoid adding an additional basket to my roof rack. Instead, I am looking for some kind of aluminum extrusion mount for a spare tire, and then adding ratcheting straps for extra...

Double Stuf Oreo: Before: After:

Thanks to the guys on here, I was able to install my Sumposprings plus 2 inches of Timbren's on each side. Unloaded, there is just about 1/2 inch gap. Fully loaded without water jugs filled up, the springs are compressed by about an inch. This is what is looks like now. I will fill up my...

Excellent info and pictures. Thanks for sharing. I just ordered a set of Timbren spacers after I sa your post and will do the installation when the SumoSprings arrive next week. I went with the blue ones, but I like the idea of making contact with the chassis. The nice thing about stacking...

Hi there, I just received mine and painted them black. Do you know the torque specs for the bolts? I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Thanks, EDIT: HK Offroad just wrote back and confirmed that it is 59 lb/ft.

That’s great. I did a similar thing when I ordered my sumosprings. I ordered an extra set of their spacers, but I need to source the correct screws. I’m still worried that even with the extra spacer, they will be further than half an inch from the chassis, so I may look into additional spacers...

What a coincidence! I've been trying the solve the exact same issues as the OP, and literally just left my local 4WP store. I asked the manager what suggestions he had, and he showed me SumoSprings on his computer. He then walked out and measured my Bronco's gap. I have 7 inches of gap...

With my setup, the Bronco sits level. Which I do not like. Once I add my camping gear, the rear sags by about an inch or more. I'm finalizing a few things before I decide on new rear springs. Ideally, the rear should be higher than the front by about 1 1/2 inches when the car is empty. That way...

Thanks. That is by far the best option I have seen so far. I did see the red piece a few weeks ago but did not know anybody made d rings for the rear. Very cool. a bunch of companies sell it. But I do not like the design for many reasons. My OCD hurts looking at it lol plus I have a table and...

Another point about the ARB Jack is that it cannot be mounted horizontally like the hi-lift Jack. ARB says the top has to be elevated slightly to avoid any leakage… i was planning on storing it behind the driver seat and secure it to the headrest, if I can get it to work on my car.

I'm not worried about getting hurt or damaging my car as much as I'm worried about finding a good jacking point when in a hurry, offroading with a group... The ARB Jack is super simple to use, but the Bronco is not the perfect candidate. Unless you have metal front and rear bumpers along with...

Yes. As much as I love to find a way to use it, I think a nice bottle jack would serve me a lot better.
