Completely doable. Don’t even need to jack it up. I just had access to one and figured it would be easier.Nice! What are your thoughts on doing the install without a lift?
How's it look from the front with the truck on the ground? The stock fx4 looks like they are angled more than the arb if that makes sense
I haven't noticed any noise difference. No vibration. It "feels" a bit more rigid, but that's probably just in my head.Looks like it has great form and functlion. Great upgrade. Does it cause any noticable effects inside the cabin (vibration, noise, ridgidity etc)? How does if affect access to key maintenance points like filters, drains, zerks) ?
Yeah that's actually the biggest reason I posted it. I couldn't for the life of me find any pictures of it installed. I figured I wasn't the only one.@103 thanks for posting this
I've been looking at skid plate options, mostly for some transmission pan protection. I was curious how the ARB setup looked on a truck. Now I know.
Good too kniw!! I'm sure the ARB Summit bumper will kill it anyways but still good to know.About fuel efficiency.
I have no real solid numbers on this, but I just drove from Jacksonville to Orlando yesterday. Averaged a bit over 80 mph the whole time. 20.5 mpg for the ride. I had Been averaging 19.5 around 65 to and from work before the plates. So maybe I’m experiencing less undercarriage drag now?
It’s only anecdotal. But it has felt a lot easier going fast.
For reference: have 1.5 inch taller tires and a 2.5 inch level.
Hows the truck feel at highway speeds with them on? Any difference? Looks awesomeI installed mine this weekend. No lift and no helper. Used a Pelican case to prop up the plates since they are a bit heavy for one guy to lift up alone while crawling under the truck.
Made some notes on the install sheet attached due to some omissions and misprints. Will figure out the Oil Plug situation closer to my oil change time.
I did not notice any difference this morning on my commute (about 15 miles of highway). I did not put the Air Dam back on either.Hows the truck feel at highway speeds with them on? Any difference? Looks awesome
