I had KM3 last set they are amazing for mud and not bad on the road they where quiet for around 15,000 miles then they started to get louder after 20,000 they where loud after 35,000 they where crazy load. my wife was super happy when I replaced them you had to talk over them.
2017 Tacoma its pretty quiet truck. Great for off road KO2 are just as good off road and they never got very loud my 2 cents
Yeah, I'm thinking I'll have to convert to K02s if I don't have a second vehicle by then, LOL

Yeah, I had them in 34s on my 4Runner and have them now in 37s on my Bronco. Hoping I get a second vehicle prior to that many miles, lol

I was able to wheel it a bit and didn’t get any noticeable rubbing. However I did get it to rub in my driveway fully turning going downhill diagonally. I think the weight of the rig was just right and wheel was fully turned. But it didn’t leave a mark. Need to replicate it and get out to see where I need to shave. But out in the rocks it never rubbed. But next time I go out I will definitely bring a bunch of zip ties drill and maybe some shears or a cut off tool. But I am sure after a put a couple hundred miles on the rig and put it up on my rack that I will be able to see where I need to hammer, trim or cut.

Edited this post but felt it needed reposting being many watching the build may miss the updated post.

Edit they are fixing bracket and sending it out. I did have the marks on my bronco (See Pics) but I still love the product just hate they had the problem.

Edit they are rubbing paint off see post 241. Will update when I have more info.

EZ-Lift Soft Top Assist System

https://www.iagperformance.com/iag-...-system-for-2021-ford-bronco-4-door-soft-top/

For me this fixed everything I hated about the soft top. (Ford should have this from the factory)

Hated lifting the back now it just goes up and way higher.

Hated worrying about letting the top all the way down and scratching the side roll bar. I let it down like 10 times yesterday seeing if it would hit never even came close. And yes before I had to be very careful.

It also makes it 100% easier to let up when you have the top let all the way down.

Now the Bad (Let me be clear this is a buy before I get my Bronco Product knowing what I know now)

As it should it does take a little more to let it down. For me I found it helpful to let it down till it got harder then walk to the back in the center and just pull it down that kept it center going past the roll bars also.

After bringing it down it is a little harder to snap locked as it should be. Look this isn't a big deal just give a full review.

This one is the only one that is a real negative getting it to unlock to let it back up you have to push down hard on the lever due to the extra tension I could see this long term maybe being hard on the small cable. Look this was a 100% buy for me like I told my wife be mod we have added but I'm just giving a real and solid review.

This is how high it now goes up.

Some things just go together like peanut butter and jelly:cool:

Boat with trailer are about 4k tongue weight is about 380-400lb

Only got up to 65mph but it drove great even swapping lanes.

Any other questions just ask.

I'm assuming no issues with the squat and 37's, rubbing over bumps, etc?

Not at all it went from 40in to 38 3/4 that was measuring rear finder. We jumped on the trailer tongue and it had a ton of movement down. No way will they rub over bumps. No issues at all.
