Looks great, how are they as a step - asking for my short wife!
I did the 5 degree on both of ours. Great armour, I've dropped the two door on them multiple times, they keep mud, road spray, and gravel off the sides, enough step for entry/exit and access to the roof, and the rear kick outs are super maneuvering though tight stumpy trails. I'm a fan. With these slider/steps and a little practice, the grab handles on the ends of the dash actually start to make sense.

Out running errands. Went past a covered bridge near-ish to my house. Stopped and snapped a picture....

It took some explaining to the wife for her to β€œget it” but yeah after doing it a few times it becomes second nature. Just different than you are used to.

Left foot on step. Left hand on handle. Pull yourself up and swing the right foot in. Just make sure you duck so you don’t hit your head. 😁

CRUNCH!

Small cement/plastic pole in a parking lot below my line of sight. Pulled out of spot and crunch - was barely moving. Ordered a new fender and flare, door, lower hinge and wiper fluid tank. Will be painting the entire side. While at it, will be painting the flares (white) as well.

After patiently waiting for almost a month, today, I attemped to install the Turn Offroad HD Tire Carrier Tailgate Reinforcement, Rotopax mount, and Chase Light. Naturally, I ran into a couple of issues during the install.

First, I was only able to get 7 out of the 8 bolts back into the tailgate. No matter what I did or attempted, I could not get the bottom left bolt to line up. The others lined up without issue. After what seemed like forever, I eventually cross threaded that bolt 🀬.

Second, the chase light was missing two adapters. The first is used to attach the chase light to the OEM tire carrier. Of course I have the OEM tire carrier that requires it.

The second adapter is used if you have a hard top, which I do. It pushes the light away from the window wiper.

I knew these were missing prior to the install. Somehow I convinced myself that I must have received an updated version that didn't require them. I contacted Turn Offroad about the adapters. They acknowledged the mistake and are sending out the adapters which should be here by Friday.

Man that chase light looks good!

I was really looking forward to this install. My purchase was made on May 22nd during the Memorial Day sale. The HD Carrier and Rotopax mount arrived extremely fast, May 26th. The chase light didn't arrive until this morning, June 24th. I was told it was due the wiring harness not being in stock. If anyone is wondering why I'm using the stock tire carrier, the Turn Offroad carrier was out of stock when I made my purchase.

Anyway, here it sits until those adapters arrive.

One thing to note is the weather stripping catches pretty bad when opening and closing the window. I haven't heard or seen anything about this. Does anyone else have this issue?

Yeah I figured that out after I made that post. I also went back to read the reviews on. Some of the reviews addressed it as well.

I am usually good at researching things before I purchase them. I guess I missed this one.
