    I see you have your highlift mounted to your front runner. Does yours rattle like crazy even on street?

    But not because of the rattling. The highlift was rusting and that rust was coming down onto the paint.

    Yea, I would highly advise you to move it. I was able to get alot of the rust stains off but there still are some that I cannot get off.

    Going from 35” MTRs to 37” KO2s? :popcorn:
    My 37” MTRs have been giving me all kinds of headaches. Running way out of round and wobbling on the Hutchinson wheels...

    I’m switching to the KO2’s because I spend way more time in snow than actual mud these days.

    Old post but which tracks did you use to mount the rack? Were the tracks on the shell or did you do it after you got it? Thanks bud

    I used the tracks that came with the SnugTop. The frontrunner came with some but I figure I would use the ones already mounted on there. I did have to shave the frontrunner inserts that the nuts bolt into to get them to fit. About 15 minutes of work and they fit in very snugly.
