Thanks for your advice, especially the video you posted on YouTube regarding removing the bolts. I did end up using the blue locktite on the new screws, and I guess this is down to paranoia from when I used to race bikes. Obviously track...
I'm happy tp report that last weekend's first ever "Cleanup on the Rocks" trail cleanup day was huge success!
Big thanks to everyone that came out and hepled with the cleanup! Everyone had a great time and North Georgia is looking a lot better...
Might be late too late on this one but I would not recommend that. Locitite is literally the root cause of any/all "nuts fell into the roof" stories that you hear about. Specifically one bolt gets removed, then the other gets twisted, and the...
I'm signed up for 3D on Thursday, leading Wipeout Hill again on Friday... open at this point Saturday. Looking forward to seeing more of the 200 crew here, come track me down at vendor night if you don't see me elsewhere, I'm camping on top of...
And just so others reading know...heck of a nice guy, never complained and finished the run on the 3 good wheels. I was glad to help and CM is always a blast. I'll miss this year but an Eastcoast adventure is definitely on the list.
Oh yeah. That was a nightmare to get fixed 2500 miles from home.
That was back when I was pushing and trying to find limits of the 200. Well I found it.:steer: Since then I've slowed down some. Especilly when I'm 2K miles from home. That was...
Can confirm @j404 having just removed my OEM Yakima roof basket. You're not going to get any 1.5" reduction in height by changing the brackets IMO. I think it's time for a new low profile roof rack. Maybe something by @nakman would be low...
I think you could get 2" doing an extrusion rail/low-rise bracket linked above. Here's a picture they show of how close it puts the cross bar to the roofline. in this picture, the cross bars on the left and right are in the "high" mount...
Some years it probably could be done end of March. But this year we have enough snow it won't happen.
You could probably access some of the elk ridge end of March but don't expect to make it up and over horse mtn or the abajos.
Where your...
Gamiviti is excellent stuff and good people. If for some reason you don't like the rack, there are tons of stock racks available for very little money.
I love mine. But I mount all sorts of stuff to it (kayaks, traction boards, lights, jerry cans).
It will add some wind noise and slightly reduce gas mileage. Not terrible, but if you never intend to use your roof rack I would personally look...
Yeah definitely hope we get to cross paths again, man. I'll be at the LCDC this July, likely leading a couple trails. Might do another backcountry UT/CO trip in May or early June if I don't do Cruise Moab and I'm always looking for a few...
Not too late. I immediately taped over the holes so no more water. There also was silicone around the holes that created a ridge, so I can’t imagine too much got in anyway. I pulled the sill trim myself and it was absolutely bone dry...
May be too late here, but I'm not sure I'd be in a panic going back to the dealer tbh. Are you seatbelts wet? Any wetness in the headliner? water marks? If no then shoot if it's a great truck otherwise I'd be inclined to run it. So it...
@RandyDaytona thanks so much for posting up! and so glad the trip went well and you're happy with everything. also thank you and thanks to the other guys for posting up, really appreciate the feedback on the experience as well, that means a lot...
Here are some photos of my new Gamiviti rack. This thing is a beast: very strong. I can’t say enough good stuff about both the rack and Tim, the owner. I tend to like products that are low-profile and focus more on strength and build quality...
My go to rack for a 200 series was going to be the Rhino Rack. Loved it on my GX. Bought a 200, though, with a Gamiviti already installed and am having the same positive experience you are with it. Tim’s customer service is great, as well...
I just installed an Expo rack on my 200 series. I liked the traditional aesthetics, low profile and solid construction. I couldn’t be happier with the product, the experience and especially the patience and support from Tim the company owner.
