Thanks for all the input. I went with the lay-flat cradles.

I think he’s just bragging at this point :wink:

Thanks for the pics, looks like a sweet setup. Question: Why'd you switch from the J cradles when you got the topper? I have a topper where I'd put the kayak, so just trying to understand pros/cons. Also, looks like you no longer tied the 'yaks down to the front of the truck when you switched...

I did a brief search and didn't see anything specific, so thought I'd start a new thread. I just purchased an 11.5 ft kayak, and was hoping to get some info on what rack attachment folks use, and how they secure the kayak when driving. Looking at just getting those J shaped ones, but was seeing...

Got my Leer 100R installed today. Came with the sliding windows and bug screens. Love it, now time to get my kayak rack.

I'm in Broomfield as well (also with a silver crew cab Ranger lol). I have a Leer 100R on order right now from A&A Topper, which is on Colfax in Lakewood. I quoted around some local topper dealers, and found that the Leer 100R was like a minimum of $800 cheaper than comparable models (ARE...

I was driving an Altima, but would also drive my ex's Jeep quite a bit. I gotta say, I love the ride of the Ranger. I think it drives pretty damn smoothly, but still has a trucky feel to it that's not overly refined.

Will definitely post pics. Going to Moab this coming weekend, so maybe some pics from that if we do anything cool. And yeah that makes sense. Ophir really didn't have anything challenging, except for that steep drop off that stretch of shale rock. Feel comfortable starting with Imogene...

Great info, thanks for taking the time to share. And great news to hear the truck handled each. Only thing I've changed out is adding the bigger BFG KO2s, otherwise I'm running the stock FX4 crew cab. I knew it could handle Ophir (did that in my ex's jeep a couple years back), but I really...

Well that's disappointing. Mine is on order and has a couple weeks left until I'm supposed to get it, and the guy reiterated during my visit that they had the screens. So I'm anticipating a similar deal to you...and hopefully a bit of a refund based on this oversight. I'm honestly not that...

This is awesome, great pics! I'd like to do these passes, so I'm curious how the experience was and what setup you have on the Ranger (any mods like lift/level kits, tires, etc.)? Any areas where the truck struggled or you thought you may have bitten off a bit much? How were "The Steps"? I...

As a millennial that grew up watching Power Rangers, I was thinking about going with a Power Rangers theme for my Ranger's name. Would really help my image as a Very Cool Person.

good call, thanks I'll take a look shortly and sorry for being that dude who didn't google it lol

Thanks for all the info folks. I called into Discount Tire, and they recommended 37 PSI. Checked my tires and that's actually what they had them set to, the guy originally just gave me bad info. Still curious how folks adjust pressure to different off-road situations.

Hey All -- I was curious on thoughts on tire pressure for the 265/70/17 BFG KO2's on my stock FX4 supercab. Door label shows 30 PSI. Was curious if that's what you're running generally. Felt fine to me on about 15 miles of highway and such. Also, if you get into a rocky stretch off-road, what...

Got the 265/70/17 BFG KO2's put on. Excited to break the truck in on some trail roads this weekend. Heading to the local Leer dealer tomorrow to get my 100R with the rack ordered.

The local dealer that sent me the quote explicitly called out that it has “large side sliders with bug screens” In their email. I had them quote the 100R — maybe that’s the difference? Or maybe my dude is just wrong. I’ll confirm when I swing by their place on Tuesday to start the order.

I'm quoting out comparable toppers with the rack already on, and the Leer 100R comes out to ~33% cheaper than the Century Royal and the ARE Z2. I think I'm just gonna pull the trigger on that. Looks like a nice topper, gets me what I need, and I haven't seen any complaints on here.

Well my insurance check came in significantly fatter than expected (double what I was assuming based off KBB research), so it's time for the Leer 100R + rack and 265/70/17 BFG KO2's. Will post some pictures here when we're set. A lot of the folks I gathered info from aren't active in this...

I assumed so regarding the rims, but just wanted to confirm. Good to hear you got something for the stock ones.
