What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (59 Viewers)

[GregLCA]

Thanks- Yes the Bora spacers are Hub-and-Wheel centric, and the front spacers are machined to fit around the front hubs correctly. Hardware is included- the lugs are grade 10.9, slightly longer than the stock lugs but not too long. Made in USA with lifetime warranty- @ $55ea. They are made to order, so expect to wait a few weeks. They can be found online at motorsport-tech.

I dont have any 1st hand experience with Spidertrax (Its probably a good quality product or Slee wouldn't carry them) but they've been backordered for a while and I moved on to this option. Time will tell, but I felt it was a good alternative. Close friend owns a rover repair shop, and has been using Bora for several years on customer rigs and his own- no complaints. He's the one who recommended them to me.

Couple more close ups:

NICE!!!

I've already been on their website to order, but they don't seem to have different part numbers for the front vs. rear...??? And all the photo on the site show the rears with the simple centerbore machining.

If you're feeling (even MORE) generous, could you post the part numbers you used to order with???

Thanks!

Drove some fantastic back roads along California's "Lost Coast" near Petrolia. Absolutely beautiful - and very few people.

Can do a replacement/installation write up if there is interest.

Cheers

Please post a pic of the Method rims, I just like to drool. Slee Slider steps are a neat unit too, you'll enjoy those.

@Lacalusa literally just ordered a set of NVs yesterday. I'm assuming those are 18x9 with 25/6 offset? What size tires are you running? I ordered 275/70r18

@DirtDawg yes these are 18x9 with 25/6 offset and my tire size are 275/70/18, I guess we will be twins hehe...
Love how the offset made the wheel come out and have an aggressive more look to it, didn't like how the stock wheels where more in looked a little weird. Love the look now

 

[DirtDawg]

Literally gonna be twins.... I ordered ko2s as well. So much for being original I guess that just means we both have good taste?

Also good to know that they clear fine with no lift. I'll want to throw mine on while I'm waiting for all my lift parts to show up.

 

[Lacalusa]

@DirtDawg they clear fine but slight rub when hard turning and hitting bumps faster than normal. I still have to find out where they rub or just buy a lift kit n not worry at all but probably won't fit into garage with lift sucks. Yea my tires are ko2 also hehe.

^^^ Doesn't matter. Remove them. Clean and wax. If there are grooves and paint damage...it'll still look better than the port-added flares!

yes, i agree. a little clay bar and one spot of touch up paint was all it needed.

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

Almost finished with the tailgate lid. Need the new hinges and wire clamps for arrive to finalize everything. They WILL go to the the cutter next week for pricing and possible production..

Several of you have posted or PM'd your interest.

The rundown:

Either 3/16"--- 6061 or 7075 aluminum ( I will pay for the 7075 if the price of material is within 15-20% ) Just a better material.
Powder coated hinges
Locking or Non-locking lever latches (customers choice- these are high quality SouthCo latches)
Rubber wire clamps to tie back wiring.
Perimeter inner-lid lip to support any weight thrown on these
Dual door will be the ONLY option
Stainless button head fasteners with Nylock nuts
Doors will flip out for more table/shelf area

PM me if interested..

Thanks champ. They look fantastic, also like the blacked out grill - job well done.

Now I need to explain to the wife why I need new black rims, actually just grabbed a set of 200 series gxl rims, which I will powder coat black, "the poor mans Methods", will see how we go.

TLC Automotive in Columbia, TN did some work: Nitrogear UCAs, front brake rotors/pads/hardware, and new wheel bearings/races. Barry and the guys did great work!

My buddy and I replaced spark plugs on my '02 with 141,5 00 miles. It was a pretty easy job if you have an assortment of extensions and a u-joint.

Looks good how'd you do it?

 

[crimsonaudio]

Relocated the 7-pin trailer harness as after the Slee rear bumper, it was hanging down there by itself, begging to be sacrificed...

During the process I unplugged it from the harness and wired the license plate light for the relocated plate.

Took way longer than I would have guess, but it's really clean and I can still use my trailer harness with zero issue, so all's well...

Door panels have to come off. There are 4 screws behind the panel that hold the grill in. This is the cloth I used and they come in different colors.
Speaker Grill Cloth Light Sand/Tan/Beige Front Fabric Mesh Home Car Audio 36x66"

I removed the old cloth and used it as a template to cut out a new sheet, but a tad larger. Turned the grill upside down and sprayed 3M adhesive around the outer edge where the original cloth stuck to. Spread the new cut out and put the grill on it, then slightly stretched, folded over and pressed on the adhesive.
