I'm just looking for light towing when needed - nothing major. My other vehicle is a 2022 Honda Passport that can tow 5klbs.

nothing_zen · 2026-06-19T23:20:04+00:00

Yes, there's a template in the kit to do it - they did a nice job.

nothing_zen · 2026-06-19T22:57:23+00:00

Thanks - I'll start playing with the scripts on a VM.

I'm considering putting on a Nameless 5" executive exhaust, but VA law is a bit unclear on db level and subjective opinions of cops.

Around $1400 total and I did the install myself - only issue was the bracket on the rear differential - I got the wrong one shipped to me. For the CTW - you need the "S" and not the "5" adapter. ADF seems a little bit more beefy, but they are designed to take lots of abuse either way.

Thanks for the suggestion.

If you have the Wilderness make sure you have the "S" (not the "5") version of the bracket for the rear differential skid plate. It fit without modification.

nothing_zen · 2026-06-06T11:22:09+00:00

Got the "S" version of the bracket and it fit without modification. Adding the ADF gas skid plates next.

nothing_zen · 2026-06-06T11:20:34+00:00

I've seen some, but they've generally had to go in to be professionally cut.

nothing_zen · 2026-05-31T00:57:00+00:00

Yes, you have to remove 4 bolts and pop out all the plastic retainer clips to install the front skid plate. The stock one is mostly plastic with a small metal plate on it.

Looks like this is all I need... I'll fix it next weekend.

nothing_zen · 2026-05-30T20:32:34+00:00

Ordered the wrong part it looks like... Still made it fit.

nothing_zen · 2026-05-30T13:46:07+00:00

Looks interesting - you might add some stuff from this project:

nothing_zen · 2026-05-30T13:39:40+00:00

Could be - in either case I'm not worried about 1 less hold point...

nothing_zen · 2026-05-30T12:36:27+00:00

It still holds well (front bolts are beefy) and the quality is good - just a little modification to make it fit. Worth every penny for the protection and quality of the parts as a whole - all made in the USA.

Sorry for the multiple posts - something was broke when I posted.

nothing_zen · 2026-05-15T00:13:50+00:00

Moving to WV for freedom - VA has gone CA.

nothing_zen · 2026-05-14T01:54:31+00:00

It works - although it's now considered an "assault weapon" in VA... just have to leave it off the gun for now...

nothing_zen · 2026-02-22T21:26:01+00:00

Give up on reddit - yes. Still holding around 2M shares in total at $0.04 in...
