Good luck actually GETTING your HAVOC flares… I ordered mine in FEBRUARY. I still don’t have them. I’ve called and emailed and was told they be here by the 11th. Mind you this is April 11th we’re talking about here and I STILL haven’t received them or been provided any shipping information. I...

Thank you- I have decided given my low use rate to go with the Harbor Freight Badlands Apex winches. They consistently get a ton of great reviews and I have never had an issue with them myself. So I need to re-spool a small ATV winch rated for 3500lbs and a large 12,000lbs one on my overland...

Ok- thanks! I’ll try to make some calls to these folks tomorrow. I knew Factor55 made the recovery points- don’t know why I didn’t think that they made the rope/shackles to go with them 🤷🏼‍♂️

Are GearAmerica or Rhino USA reputable? I’ve found their product on Amazon, and they claim to be US manufacturing companies but I just don’t know enough about synthetic products…

Hey Crew- I was wondering if there was a consensus on the best USA fab’d synthetic winch line? I want to replace a steel cable with a synthetic (on two different vehicles) but I want to work with a company that can help put together a correct kit for several different vehicles. In total I have...

Just kidding- I’m not professionally trained… but thought I’d straighten up my feathers- ha! But seriously I don’t think it has anything to do with that (at least in my own case). These brakes are glazing WAY too fast. It’s a joke honestly.

Well clearly reading the thread- it’s not a small sample. And as a professionally trained track driver I’m pretty sure it’s not a function of skill.

Interesting. How does this product work? Is it different than any other brake cleaner spray?

Ya it sucks. We shouldn’t have to do it ourselves. Guess that’s what I’ll be doing this week…

Going to chime in here. My 2023 Wildtrak brakes having been squeaking and squealing away for the last 5k miles. I have 15,500 right now. I had it in at the dealership at 10k miles. I told them it was ridiculous that my brand new brakes were squeaking at 10,000 miles. They ‘visually inspected’...

This is the way.

Body lift or RPG or shock replacements. That’s all I would do. Having “been off road” isn’t much of a qualifier as far as I can tell. It’s about the shit you break off road and did you get back. Pack the top of the shock and you WILL increase your CV angles and you increase your risk of...

I think this is correct. And to the other poster- you will be waiting for the rest of your ownership. There aren’t other solutions. There’s no free lunch kids. You want to keep the OE Fox shocks, then you’re going to give up a little. Some people will just use this for justification to do...

I think if you’re modding like this you should definitely avoid the collars- completely agree. The weight is a huge issue and there are a variety of others.

I would endorse this if you really don’t want to go big. Run these in a C load rating and still chalk test the tires. You’ll be surprised how much of a difference the psi makes and how little you need relative to the door jam. You can start with any tire by calculating the load distribution...

Of course. I suspect running a 37” tire on a 17” rim at 26 psi makes a big difference in soaking up those bumps

I think this matters.

Interesting. Very few reports of this. I’ll assume OE Fox shocks. What tires, size, psi?

I would typically agree with you. But I think that’s where I got an education this go around. I was utterly convicted that the collars would kill the ride on the Fox shocks. It was hands down my biggest concern. I did all kinds of research on travel and valving for these shocks to try to get...
