What did you do to your 2dr today?

[Some Random Guy]

Dig those Hutchinsons for sure, gettin' serious there, liking all you've done, btw, what gears are you running now?

I’m on 4.88’s right now. Great around town, I’d recommend 5.13’s for most people who need highway passing power. I putz though.l and wanted a tad extra pinion strength.

Do you have a thread to all your supporting mods for the tires?

I'm trying to get to a "break point" before I go photo dump the Lowly 2 Door Sport Club that @blnewt got up and running. Once I do rear fenders and any rear bumper or pinch seam trimming, I'll do an update. I'll also post my future plans (Atlas, skids, semi-float rear, etc).
If you're asking how to clear the 39's I'll have that in the update. I think I work the 3rd/4th of December but should be off the weekend after to flex it out at a local park.

We made it.

The upfitter harness for the LP6 is entirely way too big. There’s no reason to have that thing the that size. I have no clue where to bury all this excess line. It’s zipped up and out of the way, but it’s a far cry from looking clean.

LP6s are insanely bright. We live out in the country and these will be a delight.

edit

wanted to include that I used a firewall boot I found linked in a thread given here regarding the firewall plug. I forget who shared it, but thanks. Make it very easy as the included grommet fit right into it after I cut it open at a rung big enough to feed to communication cable. Some RTV and done.

Installed guard rails on my rhino rack pioneer platform. Figured out I ordered the wrong size and couldn't return it so I cut the sides to fit- turned out perfect.

Okay Chris... this is interesting! You cut down the 4dr version (noticed 2dr is not offered)? Tell us more! At least I am interested.

Sure, back in April I picked up my rhino rack (including the mounting system, ladder and guard rails) from Maximus-3. Finally got around to installing it this weekend and figured out I got the wrong size guard rails- because I couldn't return them I figured I'd just cut them to fit. The front and rear rails were already the correct width so all I needed to do to make it fit was cut the two side rails by 15cm. Here's an image from Maximus-3's website that shows the product I ordered- Red is the side that was too long and blue is the side that was the correct length.

Since it's made of aluminum, cutting it was easy and after I cleaned up the edges with a file they looked factory. To fasten them down I measured and drilled the holes that mount the rails to the end pieces and they attached without any issues. The kit came with 3 supports on each side which didn't line up with the pictures on Maximus-3's website (pictured below) so I just took one off of each side and it worked fine.

Overall, I'm kind of confused as on Maximus-3's website this rail kit is listed as the "short" version even though it wasn't short enough for my platform. To the best of my knowledge, there may not be a true 2 door rail kit available, so, as of now, this might be the only way to do it.

Thanks for the info... I need to digest this.

I painted that big muffler Black using high temp Rustoleum paint so that it disappears.

Looks great! Can I ask what size? 4" or 5"? Been looking for 4" lights so they sit out of peripheral vision. I tried larger lights and found them too distracting.
