I'm in Moab all week doing my best to destroy these Tyger step bars by using them as sliders. >:)
The truck made it through Metal Masher and Hell's Revenge without an issue. I obviously bypassed the really nutty parts but took some harder lines too. I'm pretty impressed the step bars haven't...
America's Tire in Auburn swapped out my P-metric Wildpeak A/T3W for Load Range E. So far so good but I only have 20 miles on them so far. At 33psi (35psi on dash display) they didn't feel much different than the SL versions. I notice a little more impact sharpness on potholes but it's not bad. I...

A set of 4 lightly used P255/75/17 Yokohama all-terrain tires. They have 10/32nds average tread depth with a few spots at 9/32nds. New they come in at just shy of 13/32nds. No major damage and they have never been...
Eager to see what you come up with. ACE is THE place to find a great selection of jerryriggin material. lol
I think the lock nut on my 120v Ryobi is still on it. I've been using my 18v instead. I have to run down to Auburn tomorrow if you want to borrow it while I'm in Moab.
They are cheap enough to try out. Like I told Mike above, I was running around in circles trying to figure out the perfect setup and getting nowhere. So I decided to just try something knowing I could always change it later.
Thanks Mike! I just used some flat steel and cut it to size (18v angle grinder). I think I got that bar at Home Depot but ACE in town has a good selection as well. The materials are so inexpensive that I decided to just go for it rather than run around in circles trying to decide on the...
Made brackets to hold Quickfists for a shovel and axe. I had to move the tie down rings to the lower holes and because these are Silverado rings instead of Colorado rings the plate is square instead of rectangular so it was too long (vertically) to sit flat against the wall. I had to trim off...
I missed the reason for the switch. I've seen your Rubicon setup when you adventure with Chris (Venture 4wd) and it seemed pretty dialed. Are you going to do a rear seat delete on the Silverado and make a platform for Monty? :)
Aye, the idea was to keep them out of the way and more importantly out of the back seat where they usually live. Sometimes office staff use the truck or we have to carry guests and having to remove gear for passengers is a pain for non-stewardship staff. I'm going to add another rail to hold...
Thanks man!
On that note.
I mounted a superstrut utility rail on the work truck today and stuck the XBULL traction boards on it and "secured" it with a cable lock.
My bracket mounting solution.
Thanks buddy! If you ever need a hand let me know. Then again, you read my mod posts so I might do more harm than good. Makes for good stories though. :)
I tried to replace my rear brake pads with Powerstop Z23 pads in an effort to get rid of the squeak when driving over rough surfaces. Everything was going great until the last caliper bolt decided to break off inside the slide pin. You know that feeling....
I was all set to try and drill out...
Finished up the DIY utility rails on the bed wall. It worked out really well once I had everything figured out and bought the tools needed to complete the install.
Finished product.

I finished up mounting the utility rails (superstrut or unistrut $20 for 10') on the back wall of the bed. I wanted to retain the use of the OEM holes for tie downs so I drilled 4 1" holes above them on the flat section of the bed. I used a 1" hole saw to cut through the bedliner and sheet metal...
