    Ok rhino platform is on. Trying to decide if I want to drill and install through the Thule bars or go with these z brackets and mount it in the rhino slots. Help me decide. Also, my girls approve of the new rack system. :rofl:

    From the looks of the pictures I think the z brackets would make a cleaner looking install. As far as strength, longevity I'm not sure

    If you use the z brackets would the Thule bars need to be removed? Is there any way you can utilize both the bars and the z brackets? Can’t hurt to have it be overly secured and support/weight dispersement spread out more evenly.

    I remember you saying something about moving back toward the coast again and wasn't sure if this was the new place...

    Some guy t-boned a motorcycle, and the bike ended up crashing into me while I was sitting still in traffic. She took the hit like a champ, just gotta get her fixed up now:( If you’ve dealt with collision repair shops before, I’d really appreciate any tips or advice you can share. Thanks.

    Much better with the Meso kit. Although the drill got away from me when drilling out one of the plastic rivets.:mad:

    Did the brake fluid flush today and installed longer studs on the front hubs to accommodate my 1.25" wheel spacers.OEM studs were too short and these were about 1/2" too long but nothing a zip wheel couldn't handle.PXL_20250907_222224107.jpg PXL_20250907_174959655.jpg PXL_20250907_213152755.jpg PXL_20250907_230009976.jpg PXL_20250907_213558225.jpg PXL_20250907_213603427.jpg

    Got everything all sealed up today, used Jescar Powerlock Plus and did two applications as recommended for best shine and protection and man does it shine! I’ll try to get some good pictures of it in the sun here soon, pretty happy with how it turned out!IMG_1528.jpg IMG_1534.jpg
