    Possible, definitely will make some noise on the trail.

    Just change it and not take the chance. I had some billies that was close to that.

    :bored: I was just leaving the shop. Woke up at 5:30 to go to my other job...

    But to answer your question... soon.

    That would be so easy and the shop would be really clean. Campers would get built quickly too. Then I’d melt them all down to buy more meth. I think that’s how it works right? ;)

    Only cracks are in the wrinkles forming around my eyes. Worth it...

    Thats after about 15 days of camping/wheeling with a Tepui Autana (medium RTT, 150lbs-ish) on top, plus hi-lift, shovel and traction boards on the sides. Given the way that it failed, I don't think inappropriate weight was the issue. Truck's OK, cause I caught it while it was just wobbling side to side and was able to get the tent pulled off and strapped down. The replacement they sent started showing signs of cracking too. :(

    I'm (slowly) writing up a proper thread on this w/ pictures and a full story, which I'll try to get posted tonight.

    Yea I would second what he said I have 3/16thsx3x1 channel and I had to reinforce due to cracking on mine I added gussets at all 4 corners. But I took it through the rubicon, Moab, and lots of fast paced fire road as well as had over 20 nights sleeping in it before leading to this so it held up for a while. I also carry my spare tire from the bed rack as well as CO2 IMG_5992.jpg

    Wrecked!
    On this subject. My bed split and cracked the last wheeling trip it saw,Signal peak.
    Driverside corner top of composit bed split and craked about 4"down from top corner.
    I had the spare and hi lift bolted and strapped to the back bed rail..
    The composit bed is weak and the bed rails cant withstsnd off road use.

    I emailed ARB and asked where I can buy new bushings. They asked for a part number off the shock which I sent. Then they asked for my phone number and address. New bushings are on the way..no charge.
