Too bad, I was hoping for an easy fix for ya. Also, that totally blows my “premium gas doesn’t seem to boil as much” theoryYeah, I almost always run premium on road trips.

@indycole It's been a while, but maybe you remember. Is there enough material to safely Dremel off the ducting to fit the spacer like so?

how are you liking the Baja Boss ATs? I need to replace 2 of my 305/70/18 KO2s, however they are "backordered" everywhere. My options are to jump over to your Bajas or downgrade to a 295/70/18![]()
Everyone says the KO2s run small... any idea how the Boss measures out when loaded on the rig?They're great though I'm not sure I'd jump into this size again. I didn't expect to have such a hard time fitting them.

Also, I saw that you had Ridge Grapplers - did you have issues with them? they don't make them in 305s, so I'd have to get them in 295/70
What UCAs are you running @indycole ? I've had to clearance my stock UCAs for wide 35x12.5s, but always though aftermarket UCA would provide more clearance. Surprised you're still getting contact with larger spacers?
Rigs looking as finer than ever.
I know this is an old post, but could you show where you have wires and things coming into the glove box?In today's episode of "one thing leads to another" I replaced the plastic glovebox shelf with some baltic birch plywood wrapped in boot liner. I followed the same contour as the plastic shelf and lined the inside of the glovebox shelf ledge with felt tape on the walls and velcro on the ledge itself to keep the shelf in place.
Why? Well, I'm working on installing rear coil helper airbags and went with the full control system to set each bag pressure independently from the cab. I'm hoping to use the airbags for a bit of leveling help for the RTT (though I'm skeptical that I'll get that much height differential). The control setup requires placement of a couple paddle switches (left and right airbags) and a 52mm gauge. A while back I stopped storing stuff in the glovebox and began using it as a compartment for mounting electronics — radio head units, battery monitoring, sat phone, etc.
In order to make room for the airbag control kit, I needed a more flexible mounting surface than the plastic shelf. I also wanted something that was serviceable and easy to disconnect. I also upgraded from bus bars to a fuse block + circuit breaker and replace my two National Luna battery monitors with a Victron BMV-702 that monitors the capacity, amp draw, and instantaneous power consumption of my aux battery (as well as the voltage of my starting battery).
The glove compartment now has 3 air lines running into it, 12v power from the aux battery, dual USB charge circuit, the ham radio, the CB radio (had to reinstall it for Cruise Moab), power for the rear view camera, the airbag control gauge and switches, the battery monitor, and I left some space for a Redarc trailer brake controller. The wires and air lines may look a bit messy when installed in the glove compartment but it's par for the course as they're service loops so I can pull it in and out without stressing the cables.

I don't think I grabbed any photos of that? I ran the wires and tubing up through the trim just to the engine side of the kickplate. I popped off the trim to the right of the glovebox that rests against the passenger side door. It doesn't expose much, but I was able to fish the wires into the glovebox via some holes I drilled.I know this is an old post, but could you show where you have wires and things coming into the glove box?
I ended up making my opening in the back right of the glove box. It was a little awkward running the power cabling up to that opening from the firewall grommet, but it got there eventually!I don't think I grabbed any photos of that?

If I had it to do over again, I may look at completely disassembling the glovebox/dash to go in from the rear of the box.
