I just got the Morimoto bracket, any tips for install? My only concern is hood lining up after.
@redbeastadventures2 күн бұрын
Use a few pieces of tape and a pen to mark where the hood matches up to the mounting brackets on the tape and then put it back in the same spot. Do one side at a time. Remove the tape and good to go…

37 spare fit under the bed? Or u kept 33 as a spare
@redbeastadventures7 күн бұрын
37 would not fit in the normal spare location. At the time of this video, I switched out the 33” spare with a 34” spare Toyo RT Trail and it fit with no issues. You could probably squeeze a 35” spare in that spot with a ratchet strap and air it down. Now I have 38s mounted and have a 38” full size spare that I keep in the bed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpPNaYqJhb6FiLc

I live in Western Colorado amongst the rock, ledges and boulders and wheel mine often, I need all the help I can get and 37’s, for me anyway, are the way to go. And yes I’ve ran 35’s on the same trails. I ran the 37’s on stock rims for a long time, sucked around town but was a non issue on the trails flexing with the swaybar disconnected. Recently bought the same Methods you have and love the piece of mind the “bead grip technology” gives. I’ve ran as low as 8psi in the rear (11 front) snow wheeling and led the pack and was the only one not needing a recovery. Your Beast is coming along great…come out West!!!!

As a matter of fact, I have. I took them offroading several times. One of the last times on Coppinger Cove (very rough trail), I did pull the longer passenger side loose at the rear seat area. However, I took a look at the "rubber" pad that I put in to push up against the metal and it dissintegrated. So I got some more robust rubber to use between the end of the rod and the seat bracket then reattached it back and it is super solid now.

Thanks for posting the video and showing off the bumper. Looks really nice. From my experience installing the rear bumper and watching this video it would appear to me that the instruction are lacking in details in a similar way the rear bumper is. Even their own website for this front bumper says "The winch does not need to be removed for the installation of the bumper." I really hope they work to make improvements on the paperwork as it is just as important as the product itself not just for people like me that DIY but also for shops since time is money and it seems extra time was spent to figure things out that should have been in the instructions. The bumper itself seem like a great product, just wish they would take the main feedback I see everywhere about the instructions and work to improve it. Did the fender liners have to be trimmed in the front? Also any reason you skipped the lightbar? Been debating it myself since it just seems like it would be too much forward facing lights.
@redbeastadventures23 күн бұрын
It is an awesome bumper. The tech installing the bumper also probably preferred to remove and drop the winch to get it out of the way especially when cutting the welds on the bumper mounts. It may have been possible to keep the winch in place somewhat during installation…. We trimmed the fender liners as well. I had already trimmed them before after we cut the factory front bumper from before. It is easy to trim. I wanted to use some individual lights that I could control in pairs instead of the light bar. Also, if I wanted to change or upgrade those lights out later it is easy to reach and swap out. Also, gets the lights up a little higher.
