Any chance CDL covers are going to be back in stock soon? Would like one for my ‘04 LX. Thanks!

Honestly no real ETA on those. I have to redesign them /am not satisfied with the 3D printed versions

Thanks for confirming! Just ordered a couple other items from you this morning but before doing so wanted to make sure the CDL covers weren’t about to come in stock. If you ever take one off a vehicle or have an extra laying around (even if you’re not super happy with the design) let me know! Thanks again

I would certainly purchase a well designed CDL cover. I bumped that switch more than I like and care to admit.

Admittedly I’ve never been able to find a way to do that in my truck but my GMRS radio is mounted in such a way that blocks my leg/knee

Whoops I'm behind on this thread big time...

Here are some additions... (no particular order)

100 Series Fender Apron clips
100 Series fender apron clip no.2
Fender apron clip (larger)

I should just make a kit for these...
I used to run Rad Rubber but they only lasted about 3 years. Maybe I should make something better...

100 Series front diff support arm w/ pre-pressed poly bushings
100 Series CV axle puller tool
80/100/200 OEM trim packer (10mm rear coil spacer)
100 Series HVAC sight glass for AC refrigerant

Apron clips, AC sight glass

CV axle puller, pre-pressed poly bushing

Cruiser Patch LCA reinforcement prototyping...

I've always disliked the LCA reinforcement brackets from OME, Ironman, etc. (specifically the required drilling).

The brackets I just drew up are 100% bolt-on with the option to weld them on if you feel so inclined. These are still in prototype testing but I figured I would gauge interest for science-

Above: Prototype V1 of Cruiser Patch LCA reinforcement brackets- notice 2x bolt holes on bottom of LCA from drilling for Ironman4x4 brackets

Above: comparing outboard bolt thread purchase (2x thickness of Cruiser Patch brackets reduces visible threads). Successfully torqued to 166 ft-lbs.

Above: torqued up and ready for testing. The only reason I would suspect this won't work would be the relocation of the bent section further away from the weak edge of the LCA- best way to test something is to bolt it to my truck haha!

Cruiser Patch LCA reinforcement prototyping...

In the game of inches, clearance is everything-

I kinda doubt this would be the difference between making it over a rock or not but I've definitely given these bolt heads a run for their money over the last 4+ years. Less opportunity to get hung up is always a good thing.

I'd be in for a weld on set. I'll be replacing the LCA soon and not looking forward to drilling holes in brand new parts. Much rather weld on them instead

Cool!

I’ve got another iteration getting cooked up but when it’s ready I’ll release bare metal and black powder coated versions
