GSD is Rocco and the Ridgeback is Jaya (pronounced Jah-Ya). Jaya is my 4th Ridgeback and Rocco is my first GSD, who I rescued. The three of us manage to cram in the back of the bed to sleep. It’s tight, I’m 6’1”, but it works.
Great you didn’t have to bend the under panel. I ended up really liking how the shop did mine. My lights were wired up to the OEM fog light button, but you are right, they did have to be re wired so good that you clarified the “plug and play”.
It’s great to see more of these ARB bumpers out...
If I had a winch and my recovery gear on me I would have definitely tried those bog holes. Even a pair of maxtrax would have given me a boost of confidence, but it wasn’t worth the doubt of going at it alone, even though I think the Ranger could have handled it.
Those look great on the truck! Congrats on the purchase! And totally agree on the CS from Matt! He helped me with my recent purchase. Just waiting for the package to arrive. Perhaps I should let my grass grow and follow your lead on the install :) !!!!
Sorry to hear this news. Hopefully you’ll be able to get what you really ordered installed on your topper soon. I have experienced an improvement with Amazon’s delivery time as of late, so maybe you got the tail end of the slowness before it picked back up. Keep us posted!
I didn’t see anything posted on this topic yet. Looking for ideas from Forum members on what racks they are using on top of their truck caps. Pics highly recommended!
Looks good! I’d be interested to hear how you installed the side plates on the bottom part of the bumper near the tires. I had to bend mine. They stuck out too much and rubbed against the tires.
This bumper install also makes you want to get the ARB bash plates to match because the OEMs end up...
For me it was switching to the Lariat LEDs headlights. Purchased them used off EBay, so saved over $1000 if I had bought them new. Better light output, better looking light, and I feel it gives the truck a more modern look. It’s still not a cheapo mod, but you asked bang for the buck. I’d say...
