Concerned about safety in what regard? It depends, unfortunately. Manufacturers need to meet a number of specifications (pedestrian safety, crumple zones, etc). Stock is the best compromise that can be made. A steel bumper may provide more safety...

I have ARB on mine. This is my 6th vehicle with an ARB bumper. They just make good quality bumpers and they are crash tested which was a selling point for me. But I also just prefer the look of the ARB. After damaging my stock rear bumper on this...

anyone considered cutting out the cross bar on the baserack right above the sunroof? I like the baserack a lot - hate the fairing the dumps air into my sunroof and makes it useless. I have been considering making an aluminum fairing or getting a...

I felt back for breaking a $1K cowling.

Ha ha. sounds like a memorable day.

yeah, been a strange winter to so far. Haven't gotten my snowmobile out for a few weeks since the weather has not been great (as far as snowfall I mean) Finally took it out Saturday for a minute. Got a little confident riding in some tight trees...

Finally some more snow. It's been feeling like spring around here lately.

Using a Kaymar 200 Series Sahara camera relocate kit, I moved the rear camera to beneath my swingout basket. Fabricated my own bracket to mount it to. Tried positioning it right above the hitch, but didn't like the view. I don't tow with my 200...

Installed the antenna on the rear Slee swing out. I tried it on the front bumper but Mrs didn't like it, and to be honest I like how it's more discreet in the rear. Alamosa antenna and mount bracket. We'll see how it goes in this location. One...

I’m actually surprised to see so many fair opinions, typically on forums people just say “that other truck is s***, ours are better.” That being said, I see them as very different vehicles. The 200 is actually a very very unique vehicle. It’s...

Oh, good to know. I'll have to look into that.

I traded in a 2020 Raptor truck on my 200. Not a bronco, but similar from brand quality standpoint. For an offroad specific truck it sure rattled and squeaked a lot - like more than the 1986 FJ60 did on the same road. I loved it on the pavement...

Preparatory to installing a midland radio, finally got my Gamiviti dash accessory panel mounted. Install was easy. It doesn't quite seat down as tight as before, but looks ok I guess. I didn't love the raw aluminum so painted it black to match...

I modified their bracket and mounted the camera here temporarily. The wide angle still captures quite a bit of the spare tire. I fabricated another bracket and plan to install on the underside of the swing out basket so that the camera is about...

You have to remove the camera of course. Kaymar instructions say to just remove from here. Those plastic inserts for the screws that hold it in are very difficult to remove - or they were for me. I ended up removing the panels from the rear hatch...

This is my Kaymar Kit. I think i was missing a mounting bracket. The instructions say it came with two mounting options, mine only had this one. Large wire loom connects in the upper left hand corner (rear hatch) headliner and runs down through...

I might get a chance tackle this mod tomorrow. If so, I'll take some pics.

I didn't notice any difference in image quality. You definitely need to finish it up! I built my rig all at once as I was on timeline to take it on multi-month trip. Only thing I do to it now is small enhancements and maintenance. Currently...

Maybe I'm wrong and I didn't get the last kit LRA america had. I contacted Kaymar first and this is what they told me: Thank you for your enquiry. You can definitely contact Long Range America as I think they have one in stock. If they cannot...

perfect, well that answers my question on whether it will work on a '21. Thanks! I figured it would have to be weatherproof - image quality the same after the move? you seem to be doing the same mods I have been doing - you just get to them...

Just curious. I just ordered one from Real Steel. I'm a little concerned as the body panel I bought from Real Steel wasn't even close to the original piece so I had to cut it up and refabricate to be able to patch in the panel and have it look stock.

I bought a Kaymar kit a couple of months ago from Long Range America. It is supposedly plug and play. I have haven't had a chance to install it yet, but happened to be chatting with Brian as Slee and mentioned I had one. He said it likely will...

why is the tailgate taller than the tub?

Wish I was closer, I'd bring mine over for measuring. I bought a baserack and it's a great rack, light and solid. But I like to use my sunroof and noise was just unbearable. Their reverse fairing worked great to reduce wind noise when my RTT was...

we need a rack like this for the 200 @Delta VS - arb baserack and frontrunner are just too noisy for such a quiet vehicle.
