3rd Gen Quicksand thread

I used two heavy duty L brackets from Lowe’s and bolted them to the prinsu cross bars. Pretty simple and cheap. You can paint the L brackets black to blend in better

 

Thats what I was going to do. Did you use spacers to make the L bracket flush because of the lip.

 

No I put the L bracket on the crossbar and butted it against the side rails of the prinsu. I’ll try to get you a picture tomorrow but the brackets don’t come past the side rails of the prinsu

 

Thanks!

 

Love the swift...hope to own one with the year!

 

Ok I get it. I thought you had them flipped the other way. If you could snap a quick photo that would be awesome! Its only attached to your toprac right? Not the cabrac.

 

Like this right? Im having a hard time with it because I cant shift the tent over any more so the awning is going to be right up against the tent. I think I gotta find a different way to moung it but cant find any other examples.

 

Sorry I was mistaken. I had it flush like that when I had my tepui RTT and Arb awning. With my new tent I did have to bring the L brackets out further past the side rail of the prinsu because the tent has a lot larger footprint on top of the truck! You should be fine if you run some spacers to level it and bring it out further. You crossbars seem to sit a lot lower than mine. I didn’t use any spacers on mine but it probably could’ve used a few

 

My personally fabricated Bolt-on Rock Sliders installed on my Quicksand truck this weekend. They are 25 degree kick-up. They hug close to the cab and do not extend out very far, allowing for easy entry/exit. They are perfect for my needs for mild wheeling...

 

Finally got around to posting some pictures of my new lift, tires and wheels. Just got put on last Thursday.

OME 888 springs, soft shocks, full medium leaf pack, 275/70/17 Coopers, Black Rhino Armory wheels.

 

That looks so good dude! Damn. Did you change your ucas out?

 

Finally got her out camping with the new camper shell.
This color really blends in with the landscape.

 

Even at night quicksand looks good

 

I did not. It aligned well, no rubbing when flexing. I did not have to do anything modding wise in the fender well, which is why I went with the OME lift and that size tire. Completely satisfied.

 

A little contribution to the QS thread. Parked truck yesterday, came back an hour later, and this was there. Made me chuckle.

 

Hail to quicksand!!

 

So this unexpectedly happened today.
TRD PRO wheels on 285/75 16 KO2’s no rubbing at all, kept the mud flaps didn’t have to cut anything.
