What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[Asnes]

Mounted Owl Talon Wheels and 285/70-R17 BFG KO3. Perfect balance for stock ride height I think.

I kept the spare rim stock as I wanted continued use of the rear cubby compartment for recovery gear.

I optioned secondary Apex Quick deflate valves (the rims have 2 valves) They are awesome. You can drop 3lbs in less than 3 seconds.

Looks brilliant with the wheels matched to the roof. Really first rate. I wish more wheels had two valve holes. Otherwise to use the Apex valves you have to ditch the TMPS sensors. And I might have to copy the way you colored the Grenadier logo on the spare tire storage bin. So good.

Yes decals. $17 bucks from Etsy. They work great, good quality.

"Full metal jacket"... Custom Offroad 4mm SS bash plates Black Friday sale.: f/r diff, rear control arm pivots , sump/ transmission and t/f case. Was able to crawl around sufficiently to "lever" the heavier plates into place and loosely bolt in position prior to final tensioning. I'll sleep well tonight
EDIT: Was most impressed that 14/20 bolt holes tapped and threaded during vehicle production, 4 bolts plus nylocs into existing brackets and remaining 2 for the t/f case plate piggybacked on to the existing (middle) attachment points for the LHS side runners.
All in all a satisfying task for an old bloke! (according to ageing neighbour!)

It's a solid product. I did have to tap one of the diff threads though. No big deal.

Sorry about that sir, I realized the "subject matter" wasn't really visable in my photo, also not so funny to those who don't play pickleball LOL!

I’m VERY impressed you were able to do it all yourself! I went the “SPP” F.M.J. route, but unlike you this ole body of mine had a difficult time trying to negotiate holding the heavy ass plates and bolting them in place, so I had to hire a shop to install for me. I tip my hat to ya sir!

 

[landmannnn]

Very pretty!

 

[Deleted member 9052558]

Very pretty!

Trust me it’s more than looks! 6mm thickness/heavy as hell & probably why I couldn’t install by myself. Haven’t found another under armor kit thicker. Most are around 4mm, this one is 6mm. It was only painted red to match the factory painted red frame. It will get used & probably scratched, but that’s the beauty of paint, can be reapplied. I’m not going rock crawling or taking it to the MOAB, but will be traveling across the USA looking for the best fly fishing spots off the beaten path/hidden. Well that’s the goal…..::

@Dual Grenny Guy ...thankfully, the product I bought is fabricated from 4mm stainless steel which provides a degree of flex to absorb big hits ( hopefully very rare) without necessarily cracking, and reduces the weight. No way could I manage a 6mm mild steel plate .!!!
The large plate covering the sump and transmission is about 25 lb while the bash plate for the transfer case weighed in at about 21 lbs. I "balanced" each in turn on an empty 10 litre paint tin which provided about an inch of clearance then manoeuvred it into position with the head of a broom....While the diff covers were straightforward the challenge with the large plates was finding a "path" for my arms in a confined space up behind the front crossmember to get sufficient leverage to insert then torque the Nyloc nuts while holding the bolts.... When I got them 'sort of' tight I cinched them lightly with a socket on an impact driver using a "floppy" extension which gave about 10-15 degrees of leeway. Took a tad longer than I had anticipated...
Sorry about the long post but someone doing a solo install without jack stands or hoist might find it useful. I own jack stands but have only 1/2" headroom between the roof bars and the garage section door.... It's sufficient

Leitner rack and GP Factor bull bar are next on my list! haha. My wife got a text from the tire shop yesterday inadvertently... I picked her up a the airport that evening, she didn't notice the new shoes. In the car she asked: "why did you have to go to the tire shop?". I smiled... she is supportive, love my wife

I’ve got the Leitner rack installed and have ordered the GP Factor bull bar and Buzz rock sliders.

My wife isn’t just supportive—she’s competitive! New shoes for the Grenadier and for her must be put on at the same time!

Wait, you bought a Grenadier? Any chance you are going to expand your store offerings to include grenadier stuff?

Big fan of the ceramic coating. The water from the rain last night beads up like the day I bought the truck 11 months ago.
