What did you do to your RHO Today?

[D&Sadventure]

I’ll get plenty of use out of them, pretty foggy certain times of the year here.

Like them so much I was ready to buy until the end of the install video when they revealed the amber was only DRL. If the amber was higher power they would be a lot more useful. I live in East Tennessee Aka smoky mountains and no it’s not smoke it’s just very foggy here. Yes I know they sell “fog lights” but they sacrifice the factory running lights to mount them, and they aren’t really fog lights they’re just drl’s too.

Finally got started on my install of Eibach Pro kit 2.7 frt./1.5 rear with Enkei RPT1’s and 37x13.50’s.

The truck looks amazing. Did you have to install anything to avoid the sensors going crazy? Also, how is the ride? I assume much better based on other feedback.

 

[TXRHO]

Haven’t driven it yet. We literally just lowered the truck down, Jumped up and down on the rear bumper to get it to settle a little bit, and went home. I did install the Zone Motorsports links. Tomorrow morning it gets aligned, and then test driven. I will report back afterwards. Not feeling too confident that the 13.50’s are going to clear without some “help”. It looks like it may be really close.

Wow those RPF1s look perfect! Not sure why but that's funny to me since they're normally found on Japanese tuners.....but seriously they look right at home! And the ride height combined with 37's......yep perfection!

 

[BLKRHO2169]

Took it up north.... Headed to dunes for the day!

 

[Silver RHO]

Finally installed the MOLLE panels from Amazon. Had to borrow an angle grinder from work to cut out the power outlet area and areas at the bulkhead so that my drain tubes for tonneau cover would fit. Zero instructions you just have to figure out what hardware you need for your application. Installing the utility rails back on and aligning with the MOLLE panel holes was kind of difficult with just myself. Grinded/polished and painted the cuts I made and it turned out pretty well.

If anyone has recommendations on what attachment methods are best to use with these panels that would be awesome. First time using them and I was really confused with the Velcro and straps that came with the kit.

Thank you. I went with the Enkeis for the weight savings. Those 37x13.5's are HEAVY. I wanted to offset some of that mass. The new wheel/tire assembly is only 6lbs heavier than the OEM's.

Its now waiting for the alignment rack to get freed up. After that I can put it through its paces. So far just moving it around the shop there is no rubbing, but its really close, about 1/4" on the inside front at full lock.

man those have got to weigh 112-115 lbs a corner.

 

[TXRHO]

man those have got to weigh 112-115 lbs a corner.

Here's the breakdown:
OEM 325/65r18 tire weight 64lbs
OEM beadlock capable wheel weight 42lbs

Nitto Ridgegrap 37x13.50R18 weight 89lbs
Enkei RPT1 wheel 18x9 weight 23lbs

Net gain of only 6lbs per corner over the OEM assembly.

Curious, Any idea how much your MPG was dropped with such little weight gain?

 

[TXRHO]

No sir. Haven't even driven it yet. We just finished the install last night and still waiting for the tech to align it so I can drive it home tonight.

 

[Adub]

Any idea how much your MPG was dropped?

I’ll chime in. I’ve probably run through two or three tanks since my eibach install. Current avg reads 15.3mpg. It still gets down but those 37s slow her down for sure.

I’ll update when I get a chance to stretch it on a highway trip.

Did you weigh those wheels? because that's lighter than 17x9 RPT1's. Just curious if they are really that light.

Nick@797 weighed it before I placed my order.

That is impressive for a truck wheel !!

Triple R sentinel elite plus light bar install

Had this same idea. Couldn’t bring myself to drill holes in the bumper.

@Adub Did you recalibrate the speedo for the bigger tire?
If not, probably knock off about 2 mpg’s for the 37’s.

Unable until Tazer gets the unlock for us. Good point though. I’ll need to start hand calculating for accuracy.

Did someone say Tazer!?? I break their balls on Instagram weekly to hurry up.
