I lost about .6 -.8 on the front runner. I expect yours will be less due to the wind fairing.
It was bad enough that i ordered the proper wind fairing instead of the junk that came with it. Also wind noise is significant.
I didnt see your wind fairing installed..... did it come with one?
Long time viewer. Fellow Lexington resident, specifically chapin. I was wondering what advice could you give for people who have NEVER been on the georgia traverse?
Also any future amateur meet ups planned next few months?
Update: camping went pretty well. Roof rack is still water tight and came in handy. Lots of time traversing open pasture no issues very stable comfortable.
Sliders still on order, not worried at all about that. Biggest issue is going to be figuring out painting them..... thinking tractor...
Update: AMEX approved my credit becuase of failure of Bomber products to respond. I purchased 4x innovations sliders based on thier you tube tests.
4 - 8 weeks delivery time.
Pics to come of my load out configuration as ALWAYS your wisdom with a reason behind it is welcome.
Edit: it may seem...
Update:
Well after over 9 weeks of waiting I formally disputed my order with bomber products for my CBI sliders. I highly recommend avoiding that company. Little communication and customer service was trash.
During my time waiting i found 4x inovations sliders and i feel these are more to my...
Update: well leaks bad constant leaks. Received a few supplies for camping. Taking daughter on first trip, excited!!!!
Story: i washed my 4runner. It leaked bad. All 8 holes on the rear. None on the front.
Fix: i unbolted it, thank fully the stripped rivnut came loose. I resealed to a point...
Appears to be fine. Steady rain all night thunder storms this morning no leaks.
I filled the holes with silicone and the bolts i just didnt slather all around like i saw others doing.
As of now, it looks good.
Post up some pics when done.
Update: it rained all night no leaks. Its been a pretty steady rain all night mixed with some heavy rain.
A huge load off my mind.
I can only tell the rack is off set at very specific angles. So i will def wait until i install my front runner 40 inch light bar to adjust.
Wind noise...
Freaking out i checked the instructions and yes, i put a bead of silicone ALL in the holes. However, it did not call for it specifically around the holes.......... ugh. Welp it is sitting in the rain right now we will see soon.
Well, it didnt call for any, around the factory holes. i slathered all the bolts and the rivnuts lots of oozing. I really dont see how water could get in..... i really hope.
Yeah, next week i think i will loosen them up. Ugh.....
Update:
First i must say........ totally draining experience filled with lots of anxiety and fear, but my frontrunner rack full length is on.
1. Shout out to swell runner
2. Shout out to the 10 youtube videos I watched prior.
Where to start, well i guess i should mention buy or have the...
Update:
When i was camping i noticed my rig was awfully cramped with a large dog three dudes and gear..... so i bought a frontrunner full roof rack.
Next weekend after installation i will post up pics and my thoughts.
On another note MY LORD cbi is slow in getting my sliders out. Worth the...
Fair, and either way you have a very cool looking and a functional truck.
I ordered my sliders a week before i bought the vehicle...... 9 weeks later still waiting. CBI is f*ing slow.
I LOVE that color..... hands down top 3 colors.
Love the start. Only thing is i wouldnt go with side steps i would go funtional sliders that double as steps.
