Does anyone else get and immediate constant tone when you go into reverse? There are no objects behind me yet I get a sensor indication and tone. I have to shut the park sensors off to get it to stop.

Are the sensors clean? Is there perhaps dirt or a leaf in front of them?

 

[Jimbo]

I thought that could be the problem but same with cleaned sensors.

Then, unfortunately, I can't think of anything else. Sorry.

 

[Jimbo]

I appreciate it. Looks like a trip to the dealer!

I can only imagine that the sensor is defective. But as you say. Go to the workshop. Good luck to you.

I have been very please with my White Knuckle sliders. I have had them on two other vehicles and now my Gren is wearing them. Super solid steps but even better sliders.

Rupert, did you get the full top plate? Those look exactly like what I need. Do they have enough foot room to get a good hold with your foot?

Yessir, they are wonderful. Even received the full blessing from the Colonel! She loves them. These are rock solid as I have had these on my Land Cruiser and beat the heck out of them. As it relates to the top plate, if I had it to do over again, I would call and see if they will leave them top plates solid with no holes in them. In my pics you will notice I added some traction type sandpaper to them. I bought this at home depot ad it is really for stair treads. It works great, will stay ion there forever, and would be much easier to attach without the holes in the top plates.

Negative, Jimbo. Sounds like a sensor is out of whack to me.

Hi @Rupert, I see you got the WK rock sliders the stick straight out with a full top plate. Do you think that it would still be a decent step if the sliders were angled up 20 deg and did not have the top plate? Basically, would the height of the tube be at the same height or lower than the stock door sill when it's angled up? I would probably add some grip tape to the tubes like you did to your top plate. Thanks.

QQ Anyone get the table option? IF so....mine raises a ruckus sound wise during drive....just looking for solutions short of removal lol

 

[Bigstein]

I don’t have that option, but search rubber bumper pads on Amazon. These will help solve your problemif you can’t tighten up the table. All shapes and sizes to fit and not be noticeable.

It is about even with the floor if you get the 20 degree tilt.

Got it! Thanks!

 

[Rupert]

Got it! Thanks!

If you want it to be useful as a step, the 20 degree ones are what NOT to get.

Just a quick update on the Exoshield I had installed on the windshield. Its been a few weeks, I have taken three pretty good hits, one put a very small chip in the film (barely noticable) but no damage to the glass. The other two bounced off with not even a mark on the film. So it is doing its job and I am happy with the product.

@Jimbo , how long did it take for the blisters, if any, to disappear from your Exoshield?

They were all gone in about 2 days. it sounds like exoshield says to give it 14 days to clear, but mine was much sooner than that and there were only a few small ones to begin with.

Tint Experts (Tint Pros) in Fort Worth. The shop on Calmont Ave does the exoshield.
