Some pics of the Vents - they're the RR sport vents with the "sport" font on the crossbar filled in.....

they fit with minimal cutting of the structure in this location.

happy to get more pics or measurements if useful.

I went for a nice road trip to the Poconos to visit some family and do some leaf peeping. While I was there I managed to take a great picture which is now my new profile pic. Unfortunately, I did not have time to hit any trails while out there so it is too clean in the pic.

Look at her!!! She is looking beautiful.
Out of all of my builds, this is one i remember all the time.
Enjoy her my friend.
Happy trails.
 
headed north into Georgia with a goal of completing the Georgia Traverse and doing some late season camping. Made it to Clayton on Saturday evening in the middle of a bad rain storm. Had to buy wood for the first time ever but even that was not sufficient to allow me to get a decent fire going. Pulled the trigger on plan B which meant blowing the dust of my Coleman stove and opting to sleep inside the truck.

next morning was just beautiful. rain was gone and sky was blue. Still lots of autumnal colours out there which was nice.

Was doing the traverse from East to West and covered about 100 miles on Sunday. Scenery is just spectacular and the trails were just nice. Rough enough to need a 4x4 but not so bad that you worried about getting your rig home. Quite a few water crossings which is always nice.

This was only a 1200 mile trip so very short by comparison to my other trips however, most importantly "Molly" never missed a beat.

I visit north Georgia frequently with my 80, Layla. Do you have a recorded route of your journey?

The GA Traverse has been on my list for years, need to just make the time and go do it. Is it all mostly still open?

If you use the Gaia GPS app you can upload this file. It is the complete trail with lots of information points. The file is not mine and I guess it is a few years old as one or two of the roads were closed. I made it to around half way and the map is really accurate. My plan is to finish it in the spring when I guess most of the trails will be open again.

Thanks. Very helpful. Did your vents come with the back sides? The ones I have include the backside ducting and I'm trying to decide whether or not to use it to maybe help keep rain etc off of stuff, but it might restrict air flow a bit.
 
my set didn't some with the "trays" - so far I've had no noticable issues with the vents or scoop.....

What's that side storage basket you have? Over the counter product or something you fabbed up?
