Is that on the factory rails, and do you see a significant drop in mpg?
Yes and not sure. Not something I pay much attention to. I would assume yes at least 1-2mpg
Love those Sasquatch trailers! But couldn’t bring myself to pay the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ compared the the one I ended up going with.
It’s the kind of event that draws a crowd!
They're a pretty penny. What did you end up with?
Never seen it before but it was wild. Way bigger crowd than expected, and they were pumped up. Really fun.
Bumming around Sedona this week. Going to try to get in the greatest hits before the snow later this week
Took my 2 year old on his first mild offroad trip in North Ga. He had a lot of fun bouncing around and crossing streams towards Cashes Valley.
Ranch loop in Sedona. Not at all hard but fun to romp in the whoops and it’s so quiet compared to the other trails.
What followed was $30 at the spray-and-wash to get all the mud off. #ih8mud
Fellow LXer in ATL (twins?!). Will have to link up some time. Just had our first so doubt I’ll be able to get up there soon, but eventually.
Congrats! Enjoy the time bonding and we'll catch up soon.
I’ve asked a lot of question but haven’t posted any pics. 2018, bought in December, just got back from chrome delete. 34’s will go on in the spring.
looking good
How much was chrome delete? Wrap or paint?
Paint. Way too much. 4k. They dropped the headliner to get the roof rails which was like 6 hours of labor. Plus I had them do the entire door handle not just the chrome strip. So lots of labor tearing apart the car and putting it back together.

I built it to hold the 37 and a fridge. It mounts to the factory cargo points, then comes up and around the tire with vertical supports for the “hoop”. I don’t have a 1.25 die for my bender so I ended up welding it, and messed up my measurement! Fridge is on a slide next to it with some welded support tabs. Have a tire double strap on order and still need to powder coat it this week.
All DOM .120 wall, feet are 1.75, rest is 1.25. Used 1/8” aluminum spacers below the feet to clear the floor pan ridges, then grade 10.9 bolts to the factory holes. The 37 spare rolls over the front bar clearing the roof by about 1/4”. Side braces keep tire located nicely, and the double strap should keep any movement to a minimum.
Whole thing weighs probably 30lbs and can be installed or removed in about 2 minutes, which was important. And fridge side can be removed to store other stuff, but I had to use all 4 mounting points to be comfortable enough that the tire would hold.
