RumRunner
Test Drive
- Location
- Denver, Colorado
Time to start the build thread.
Here is your introduction to my project called "RumRunner"
Ideally the idea behind this build is to build something you would see running the Borders smuggling alcohol as if back in the Prohibition days. Full of Utility options and can sustain several "Night Runs" without any assistance needed. lol odd but that's the inspiration hence "RumRunner"
Purchased in OCT 2011
Took the mud guards and shortly after this pic took the step rails off
first purchase arrived 3 weeks after i got it.. K&N cold air intake
here is the install
Before...
After...
shortly after added the Rain Guards.
HAd to install a safty light, i liked this location
(No relation to 2nd gen in BG)
Here is my best friend Francisco
in turn making me next add some Raingler netting to keep him at bay and added storage
didnt do anything after that for about 2-3 months...
Then i decided to add some small fog lights
and found a cool switch for them
Spring came around so i added some new Rocky Mounts on top so that i can haul the bikes.
i had to modify the Yakima ski racks to allow the mounts to fit inbetween the bike rails
but i think it turned out really well. can haul 2 boards and 2 bikes.
with my other modes of transportation on top
Added some new meat not long after... Got a great deal on some 285/75R16 Nitto Terra Grappler All-Terrian
They barely fit with stock ride so i did some light triming however its certainly not a long term solution. So as of now i am waiting
on some Calmini Shackles that are in the mail as we speak. PML is the project for this weekend.
Added the Hammock Relaxation and Hydration Attachment
here is how she sat before PML
