3rd Gen - CBI Overland skids and T3 Bumpers thread

Hey that's awesome. DCLB's FTW!

The AP sliders are good for it's purpose. It was complete bolt on and no issues with the pinch welds. DOM is best to get.

No issues with the front bumper. Glad I went this route; it's super nice and utilitarian.

The rear bumper hitch leads did NOT reach. I had to extend the wires which was a PITA. The BSM doesn't work through steel and the parking sensors do not work due to the swing-outs.

 

Yeah it does!

Thanks!!

 

If you had to do it over would you go with different sliders?
Was there anything about them that you didn't like? I haven't seen other brands that look as good. To me the mobtowns look a little clunky.

I haven't looked at the sensors closely but it seems like you can just drill holes in the new bumper and push them in.....after cutting & extending those wires.
Maybe with the swing outs you could locate them where they'd work?

I like the front bumper and rear too, but I'm guessing the weight would be enough to upgrade the suspension.....those kings look nice but I know that's a a lot of loot too!

 

Losing the parking sensors is small fries to losing the BSM system. I turned my sensors off because of how annoying they are when parking, and my BSM system just quit working

His mounted tire is his new parking sensor now

 

T3 bumper arrived today. Have to say it exceeded my expectations. Welds on it are quality, gonna be a shame to paint it.

 

That looks great!

 

CLear coat it!!

 

Thinking rattle can chrome.

 

I had nice home made sliders on my old pathfinder, seemed like the best is satin black rustoleum.

Easy to touch up, kinda looks like powder coat doesn't look too bad scratched and a lot cheaper than powder coat.

 

Beautiful....just beautiful!

 

I'm guessing that a front with a winch & rear and sliders and you'd be needling some heavier springs.

 

For sure. I’m on 700# springs and I still need to add more pre-load to level up the front.

 

Just a heads up to everyone. If you placed an order in july and had an expected delivery date in September, CBI is currently running a little behind. I spoke with Kenny and he let me know that they're about to start the next production run. If you have tried to email them about order updates, don't expect an email back. The guys who process the emails don't have any information on production status. If you need an update give them a call at 18665220697.

 

I wanna pull the trigger now on an aluminum t3 front bumper because of those lead times but waiting on potential black friday sales. I'm probably going to have to wait like 20 weeks...

 

Give them a call and find out what the sale is gonna be, if any. I'm sure if they do a sale they're gonna get blown up with orders!

 

They haven’t done a good Black Friday sale in a while

 

Booo...

 

If you're military they will give you like 5% off haha

 

Sale or not..... you will love that bumper.
