    Cool, good choice!! I have KO2’s now in 275/70/17 wrapped around method standards. Going with MT’s next, but can’t make up my mind between km3, mtr or general x3. Size is the other dilemma I have. Thinking about going with 295/70/17, but I don’t think I can stuff that in my spare tire location. Probably end up with 285/70/17, then my choice will reduce to km3 or mtr.....they don’t make the x3 in 285’s.

    I went to install my sill protectors and i feel like an idiot the truck already has them. I guess i'll return those. A good thing I didn't open them. I only saw the running boards on the window sticker so I assumed no sill protectors when i bought skid plate, mud flaps and sill protectors

    Question for the group. I just got my 30" KC light bar and am trying to decide whether to mount it on the bumper behind or in front of the lower grill piece on the 3rd gen Sport. It looks like that spot is made perfectly for a behind the grill mount and you don't have to cut any of the grill away if you mount there. But I see a lot of you with it mounted there after cutting away the piece of the grill that would be in front of the light. It looks good that way too and you can definitely show off the light better. What are the pros and cons of each as y'all see it from some of you that have done it? A little input and then I'll decide. Thanks to all in advance. Go NAVY! Capture.jpg

    Today I installed my OME suspension kit with the help of two friends. It consists of the soft ride shocks, 887 coils, and an add a leaf. It took us 8 hours, though it would have taken less if one of the new leaf spring bolt's threads hadn't gotten totally ground off and required us to track down a bolt we could modify to work. I suspect that the nut or bolt was damaged before installation because from the start they would not thread smoothly, however it's possible that I did something to damage them (but I did the exact same thing on the other side and had no such problem). Lengthy, but doable for an amateur. Better picture to come tomorrow.

    I opted to cut and shine. I put a strip of headlight protective film on it (ocd) but I like the look of it in front. Just my taste. Can’t go wrong either way. It’s a Rigid SR Pro 30 spot / flood combo. It’s brighter than I thought. Oh and I forgot... Go ARMY!

    Saddest thing I’ve heard on here. Sorry to hear this. I use to live near there a few years ago.

    So impressed with the quality of RCI. The new design flows better with the lines of the 3rd Gen, imo. The packaging was really good. The instructions has room for improvement but easy enough to understand even for someone like me.

    I almost bought the KM3s, but someone on TW mentioned Cooper STT Pros and I found them for 184 ea...they arrive Tuesday :yes:

    This is my 1st set of Coopers. There’s an Australian guy that reviews KM3 and STT Pros, I’d buy either one and never look back.

    Ouch! If it makes you feel any better I've come close to doing similar. Pull up to a gate and get out to open it.... then jump back in in a panic in because I left the truck in gear!
