I have the front fairing and don’t get much noise. The only time is when I am at highway speeds in a storm and getting a strong crosswind. But then again everything is a little louder at that point.
That is great news!!!
What were some of the bugs? Do you loose any functionality of the head unit or controls on the steering wheel? How about the mic, do you have to install another mic?
Never mind I misunderstood what they were running into. They disconnected the sway bar and couldn't get it back together after they pulled the coil over to rectify the spring issue. According to the shop this was the first 200 series with BP51 they encountered.
Thank you @Markuson, I asked...
I spent the weekend installing the BP-51's on my 2017 Cruiser. I won't say everything went easy but I got it done. On Sunday when I go for my test drive I hear a clap noise on the passenger side when I hit small bumps, but when I checked all the bolts everything was tight (after that I left it...
This was a great thread. I was able to follow along but for some reason I ran into some issues. Like my driver side steering tie rod end bolt got messed up when I used the pitman tool, I think it bent it a enough where the crown bolt wouldn’t screw down. So have to pick one up this morning to...
Apologize. I was looking at the directions for the 200 series. For the 200 series it says SPC logo should face the tire.

What do you use for the lever and locking mechanism for the rear swing outs? I couldn’t tell from any of the descriptions or pictures (maybe I missed it) but do these have lockouts so when you open them they stay swung out and do they have any struts to make it easy to swing out and close?
@Taco2Cruiser all your input is well received. I had a '99 Isuzu Trooper for almost 20 years and had the expedition springs on them and I didn't mind the harsher ride, but as I have grown I have learned to appreciate a smooth ride. I do worry about being able to handle a heavy load safely and...
@Markuson, where do you get the progressive 21's? Do they still make them? When you had your truck mostly stock what did you run with and did the truck sag when loaded up with gear?
I loved reading this thread. lots of knowledge and experience. I am still torn between going 2721, 2722, or 2723. I have a stock 2017 200 series, but when we go camping its loaded down and I want something that won't let it sag. I am estimating 400-500lbs of gear not including 2 adults and a...
Interested in Aluminum front and rear.
Will the parking sensors be integrated? Will the camera be completely blocked with the tire swing out and gas cans?
2017 LC.
Thank you TonyP and Willy beamin. I have watched some videos and they make it look really easy. Found a place in My area that rents out space with a lift and tools. Rate is $25/hr. So assuming it takes my 5-6 hours it will cost me $125-150 to install and my time. One question (since this...
All,
Planning to order the BP51’s for my 2017. I want to do the install myself. Any thing I need to be aware of or plan ahead before hand? Also nervous doing it myself on such a new rig for my first time. I have replaced CV Axles on my old Trooper but that truck was 18 years old.
Thanks...
Do these seat covers allow for the rear armrest to move freely and the cup holders to pop Out and the little console to be accessible in the second row arm rest? Have a ‘17 Cruiser. Anybody have pics of the second row armrest?
