Good into, but I feel like I would need to get these tapped again to safely consider using them with lock rings, no?
Mine the popped off, just removed all the bolts the pulled out the broken bolt threads with pliers and threads were fine. Did you looked at your threads? If damaged them a tap maybe ok. Worst case heli coil or try to return it or use it as spare...

FYI the aluminum on mine was from the ring the wheel threads were ok, at least I could hand thread a bolt in it,

The ring on mine right now is plastic. I was literally blowing off the shavings of aluminum like saw dust lol.

Long time lurker, first time poster. Have done several things so far but latest is Motobilt spare tire carrier and license plate relocation bracket. Thing is solid as a rock and very well built!

One other thing, and you might be aware, but try to take it to a 4x4 shop that has a road force balancer, most of the box tire stores aren’t equipped to handle that size tire or bead locks. Unless you’re gonna do it yourself. Just a suggestion.

Have you installed yet ? Looking to upgrade my system to. Wanted to ask if there was much modification needed for the C2-400 ? Did you put them in knee panel or roll bar ?

Dropped my windshield for the first time today so I could put on my spiderwebshade.

Took me about an hour by myself, I wasn’t rushing. Biggest headache was taking off the windshield wipers the first time. They didn’t want to budge. A few smacks with a rubber mallet and they came loose.

Tail light covers by rugged ridge, surprised at how well made these light cages are.

I just leaned my windshield forward a couple inches and wedged a rag in there to hold it in place while I installed the spiderwebshade. Didn't have to lower it all the way.

Not today, but first thing tomorrow morning, it’s over to my buddies shop and put on my new shocks and springs, rear sway bar links, and rear track bar relocation bracket....:clap:. I’ll be like a kid on Xmas morning, be over there at daylight pounding on his door with coffee and donuts, and beer for after. N/A beer for me, since I’m 20 years sober come January.....:)
