What did you do with your Grenadier today?

Update to SPP skid plate install. Finished and got the fuel tank plate installed. You have to cutoff one of the factory skid plate brackets to both theirs to the factory one. Didn't appear to be too structural, it was thin sheet metal. What I can say is while the kit is nice, there are some gotchas like that and then the transmission plate has two rivet nuts and you really need the tool to install properally, tried it without the first time and wasn't successful. I also switched from the M10 rivet nut SPP provided to a M12 rivet nut and bolt as it fit the hole better. No instructions provided and shipping from Germany was expensive. If I did it again I'd go Agile or Rival.

Added the Rosen visor upgrade from Owl, really nice since I sit tall and could never use the visors anyway. Also added the LeTech ladder and Jerry can. Picked up from Warner in Utah. Good to deal with.

300km round trip, rolled over 15,000km, and filled up with 86.03L of diesel, a personal best I think.
For others reference, pre fill up that was a circa 115km initial leg starting from an orange bong, with the last 40km in the red bong zone.

Fuel was cheaper at the top of the hill. Yep, I’m a tight arse. 😂😂

Oh, and last 1000km (mostly highway with about 150km of dirt forest trails) was at an average fuel usage of 10.56L/100km - based on km driven and fuel from full at first click to fuel at first click with a small fill at about the 690km mark (in the red)

Damn your right. Thanks Jeremy, you are correct they are the side runners and not the rock sliders. I dont really need the rock sliders for my use of the rig, but I think I will dig a bit deeper in the Forum and look for some replacements that are more user friendly than these that are recomended by Forum contributors.
reach out to Ryan @ Buzz Overland. I have the custom step/sliders and it was the best accessory purchase I've made so far.
 
Doing what I can to prevent problems; the cracked windscreen thread threw up this idea ; every bit helps and it seems quite a few chips happen at the lower edge.
Cut the red backing tape in the middle, peel off and apply the LHS first, then move to the other side and repeat.
Or the opposite if you're left handed!

Mine is sitting on the counter waiting for me to replace my windshield….just waiting for the crack to grow or interfere with my vision
