I wonder that as well. I tested it with a magnetic tool retriever and that made a pretty strong hold. I may have to use a magnetic mount after all if I can’t figure out how to attach the equivalent of this improvised solution on the passenger side. The gas tank is absolutely in the way and...

WELL HOT DAMN! That’s pretty perfect. I’ve got the rear side taken care of, but this looks great for the front. Pics of the rear mount for posterity, including used hardware:

Yeah that seemed pretty apparent. I tried the DV8 crash bar end caps and the logical mount point with those would have cast a huge shadow with the modular bumper. Did you use some kind of bending brake on the brackets or just a vise and rage?

Just tried to replicate this solution. The rear side mount is easy enough, just your bog standard L-bracket with a long enough bolt, a wide enough washer on the other side of the frame, and a nylon stop nut to secure it. The front one is much harder to replicate with off the shelf parts. Both...

I'd really like to know as well.

And now the second half of Day 2: Keepin' It Lit (The Night Run!): This time we’re doin’ it in the dark!

Just posted a video for Day 2: Plan B!

Finally bit the bullet and bought myself a GoPro to start capturing our adventures. Here’s my first video! This was the first day of the event. The guided trail I signed up was Razzle Dazzle, and we were in the second group to head out that day (Group B). The people I rode with that day...

What if I have the bone stock HOSS 3.0 setup, Fox Shocks, springs, etc? Is there any advantage to getting the shocks included Game Changer set over keeping my stock HOSS 3.0 Fox Shocks and getting the non-shocks included Game Changer set?

Thanks for the reply. I was asking in general as I see this setup a lot. Clearly you have experience doing this :) I've been considering an intercooler upgrade myself, as my stock has taken a bit of dino denting from a particularly hard landing on rock (managed to get through my aftermarket...

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I see this kind of intercooler relocation implementation a lot: By placing the intercooler directly in front of the radiator, does this compromise radiator performance at all?

This is my concern at the moment. I’m looking to replace my Zroadz pinch weld mounted sliders which, though held up to a long abuse, didn’t last when I really hit them hard on some particularly nasty trails. I ended up taking some rocker panel damage, and since the sliders got bent, my frame...

Did the Rubicon Trail this past weekend as my bachelor trip!

Seems to me that the Wildtrak suffered from being the pre-Raptor ‘range topper’, rather than digging a heavier emphasis on it being the Baja counterpart to the Badlands rock-crawler. Adding the fox shocks in 2023 helped differentiate, but the significantly higher price tag, and the unnecessarily...

Still learning all the places around me, but I think my favorite trail so far has to be Hungalelti West.

@StinkBug what gauge of wire and roughly how long of a length did you use (wire and fire sleeve)?

When I click that link, it says it’s broken.

Any reason this isn’t posted to the Facebook group?

That’s kind of what Xpel’s Ultimate Plus 10 aims for: https://www.xpel.com/products/paint-protection-film/ultimate-plus I went with their high gloss version because I’m me, but I believe they make a stealth version, and they even have one version tougher, but it’s completely opaque (aka, it’s...

I have a full wrap of Xpel Ultimate 10 Plus on my 2023 4 Dr Wildtrak, including the outside of the tailgate. Didn’t opt for the grill for what should be obvious reasons. It’s not cheap, but I’ve had run ins with many thorny shrubberies, many tiny rocks, even full on whacks into my drivers door...
