it only took a week, but we had to take off the hardtop. Makes for 3 happy little people. Hopefully this also answers the frequent question if you can fit 3 front facing carseats

Installed Evo 3.5 lift and winch bumper last weekend, got the tires yesterday and installed Evo tire carrier. Stock wheel won't fit so had to order wheel spacers. Also installed more fold out steps, what a pita. Do not fit on stock rubi sliders without modification but they are on now, maybe wife won't complain about getting in so much now haha

Added four Voodoo Tactical binnocular pouches to the molle webbing on the back of the Rubi leather seats. Fit great and clean lines!

Had a little fun with the Rock Hard Cage. Got the front done in 3 hours. Still have the back and C pillars to do. I paused so I can begin my plan to make the Sunrider top work with it, time for some Dremel action.

Just wondering if the windshield bar prevents you from using the dash cubby?

Took it mall crawling today, when I came out of rural king, this was parked next to me. 1924 model T. Guy came up as I was taking pic and we started talking about our rigs. His has hickory spoke wheels, original engine, has 20 hp. The wood wheels was the coolest thing....:)

What specific items would you like me to try. I’ve never ever used it before except maybe a valet tag or what not. I would be happy to put an item in there and take a picture for you.

I started with a Dremel, and ended up using a bench grinder on the Sunrider bracket the dremel was slow and messy, the grinder was easy and super fast.
How did you manage the sides where it interferes?

The back bracket makes decent sense with what I need to do. But the sides I am still thinking on. Could you PM some pictures of what you did to the sides and rear?

Just got done installing the Smittybilt X20 10K synthetic, Warn winch plate and a flip-up license plate holder. Quite the job when doing it solo, but it turned out fine in the end. Only dropped the front end maybe 1/4". I think I need a beer.

We installed our Gobi Stealth today.

It arrived Wednesday, 16 weeks to the day from when we ordered it. Fed Ex dropped off this huge box; the driver and I slid it into the garage and I unpacked it there. The packing job is first rate, though there is enough of that packing plastic wrap to cause an eco-activist to faint. The installations instructions are also very well done, good illustrations and clearly written.

Had no difficulties with the install. Got my wife, daughter, and two of the grandkids to help lift the basket into place. I sliced out a rooftop-sized piece of cardboard from the shipping container to put on the roof, under the basket, to keep from scratching the hardtop.

Very impressed with the quality of workmanship, too. I had some misgivings about the hefty pricetag, but once you have that puppy in hand, you can see the why of it. Stainless fasteners throughout, too.

Now all we need is fifty or sixty Mongolians and a couple of camels to load on top, and we are off to the races!

Next addition will be AT tires, though the AW's have served us well so far, and we are in no rush on that.

No need to trouble you. I just have a cellphone mount there and wasn’t sure if the bar sits closer towards the windshield or if it is above the dash.
