    Electrical Setup 101 Assistance - Solar and Vehicle Dual Charging for LiFePo4 Power Station

    Full rigid panel on the roof rack--flat mount for now, but I have been looking at some mounts that I could angle while stationary as well

    Electrical Setup 101 Assistance - Solar and Vehicle Dual Charging for LiFePo4 Power Station

    I unfortunately have gotten super occupied with other hobbies for the past 9 months so my electrical setup is all purchased, but still sitting in the garage waiting for me to put it in since last fall. The base of the system is like yours with the ETaker 1000 being able to both input solar and...

    200 Series Portal Axles

    I'm with you on that; there are not a ton of attractive 5 lug wheels with high offset. It sucks for the added cost, but the options that are out there are so good. So much availability for the 250/300 that will now work. Truthfully too I have a hard time justifying switching from beautiful...

    200 Series Portal Axles

    This is true--I saw a sneaky comment on a Dissent post about the 200 series being under development about a month ago and I had previously discussed with Quinn the 6-lug likelihood I put my 6-lug wheels on order a month ago--downside is brand new model and first production run not slated until...

    The super slow build thread of my 2021 LC HE

    I had issues when I first put them on where I felt like they wanted to slip over everything compared to the Nittos. I don't know if they just took an extended period of time for the sidewalls to break in and deform/grip or what, but wheeling was not nearly as fun for the first 5-7k miles. I...

    Looking for someone with current version Slee rear bumper to test product

    A friend and I developed these panels for personal use and it drew some interest so I had a run of 25 made. Slee indicated that even though the swingouts are different dimensions the ladders themselves should be the same. I have a blem set that I'm happy to ship for free to a 100 series owner...

    Modular Ladder Panel - Compatible with Slee 200 Series Rear Bumpers

    Developed this for personal use and it drew some interest so we tweaked it and refined it and now have 25 kits ready to go. I have mounted cargo boxes on it, double jerry can holders, propane tanks, recovery gear, chainsaws and hatchets, etc--the possibilities are nearly endless. I ran the...

    LRA Aux tank installer in DFW

    I've heard good things about Frisbee; I've primarily had Tandem Offroad in Haltom City work on mine when I don't want to. I've also gone to Goode's Offroad in Rowlett and have been happy as well. Tandem are good dudes--I had Slee do my LRA while they were doing the bumper, but I wouldn't have...

    Portal axles

    I'm pretty sure I remember a guy on one of the 200 series Facebook groups who ended up getting a set of Werewolfs, but 74Weld still has not released their kit yet and they're who I'm waiting on

    Front Runner noise

    That is very odd you're still having issues. When I ran that it was the most quiet I've ever had with a roof rack. Is there any room to move it around a bit? See any gaps between the top edge and the rack itself?
