Legit. I’m betting they wouldn’t even survive Raptor Assault, much less a hard thrashing by some of our ... more enthusiastic... drivers.


I have seen a few people with frame cuts make a custom bracket and tilt the resi up to match the slope fo the bumper.

they’re probably fine on sand, and basically even terrain but it’s only going to take one serious rut to snag one, I’m betting.

Agree though, it’s a cool build.

Was it leadfoot before you painted it ? ;)

you'd really have to fork up pretty bad to wallop one of them. If you hit something hard enough, the impact force would break the fins on the resi ( that the clamp holds) and while it would dangle, the base of the fin is the sheer point and wouldn't compromise the functionality.

and if you're hitting something that hard at speed, the resi will be the least of your worries.

would I push it rearward a little for safety's sake? probably.

Mine don't stick out that much, but they aren't that much farther back. however, I have pulled cactus thorns out of the hoses.

I should mention, proclivity for damage aside, I’m not gonna deny the reservoirs look like little laser cannons jutting out from the front of the truck w/ that lift/bumper setup lol - I get it....but I’m such an OCD function over form guy those are the kinda things that catch my eye lol!

Love the wrap!!! Be careful jumping with 37s. I run 37s with McNeil 2+2 front fenders, my tears come in contact with the flares at full compression.
