Gobi rack delays

are you using the standard dash switches or something like switch pro?

for now, I’m only planning for a roof rack light bar and a low pro bumper light bar.

 

Stech switch system

 

Looks like Auxbeam came out with their own sPOD kinda thing. Hell of a price comparatively.

much cheaper then the sp-9100

 

is there a power tray for the this

 

No but I couldn't imagine it would be very hard to use any of the other ones meant for these kind of switches and just drill a hole or two.

 

i don’t see auxbeam on the power tray site. Perhaps the generic one might work

She on!

 

Truck looks awesome man! I’m glad we don’t live near each other. Hahaha.

 

badass .. sometimes I wish I had chosen multiple lights

 

That might creep people out, same name, same car, same mods. Aliens. Haha

It was a hard choice but I really wanted that old school look with multiple lights.

 

Set an install date and you will have it on that date! how I did mine last summer, was headed to Colorado anyway

 

Congrats man! Looks awesome!

 

Nice and that’s a great price!, I like how it comes with all the brackets, but only being able to have a green color backlight kinda sucks…Definitely thinking about picking one of these up… Thanks for sharing!

 

Looks great! Can’t wait until mine arrives … Question: Did you have the roof wrapped before installing the Gobi?

 

I think they make a blue and green backlight, with 6 and 8 switch options

Thanks! No I didn't, I cleaned it real good and called it a day. I feel like it wouldn't be impossible to clean under it with the right tool.

 

Thanks for sharing; Yeah I finally found the Auxbeam listed on Amazon in various colors, etc.

Love, the Old School Multiple Light setup! … I selected the same. Can’t see anymore, but what brand of lights did you go with?

 

I went with IPF, which is associated with ARB. The IPF 968's are along the same lines as KC's Apollo Pro Halogen. They ran me $300 for all four. I went with a budget route to start off because I didn't want to sink more into lights that honestly I'll probably only use a few times a year. If I decide these aren't cutting it I'll upgrade in the future.

The IPF's however do seem higher quality than the KC, Hella, Piaa options however which is why I went with them.

 

Sounds like a great price compared to competitors! … Nice choice.

 

I'll post up some pictures when I get them wired. I have a shop doing it because wiring is the one thing I refuse to do on my own haha

 

Anyone happen to know the height of the wind deflector?

 

~ 5.5”

 

Thank you sir!

 

Question on the Gobi's. How do the front feet mount? Do they just rest in the channel? I'm curious if there's any rattling/bouncing while driving...

 

They just rest ok the rubber channel. No bounce or rattle.

 

Anyone order their rack in Aug/Sept 2020 receive theirs yet? I received the delay Covid notice but nothing since and that was in Jan.

 

You adjust the plates by pressuring them a bit against the roof to get a snug fit, then tighten the nut. Technically if you didn’t have any weight on the front end of the rack it could float w/out the feet

 

I got mine last week with an order date of August 23rd 2020, that was with two weeks of shipping with FedEx

 

Thx, I was wondering about roof chatter with an unloaded rack. I may end up going from my LFD 3/4 to a full sized rack at some point and am starting to over-research racks.

 

Ordered aug 19.. got mine like 4 weeks ago
