Which running boards / steps are those?

They’re actually the factory steps that we’re on it when I bought it.

Any better pics of the rails anywhere?

 

I’d like to see how they mount, how far down they hang from the body, and how far they stick out. 

Also...made of thin wall exhaust pipe or beefy enough to actually offer some protection?

The rails are not true rock rails, the mount to the body like any other step. The metal does seem thick enough to offer some protection. They stick out pretty good but mount up close to the body with a very small gap. c0e91cd5b0e1d2cc8d6e4574f736bfc2.jpg

Most bolt on rock rails mount at least partially to the rockers. Frame mounted are pretty rate any more. 

 

Any brackets hanging below the tubes?

I’ll get an underneath picture shortly headed to get alignment.

anyone just go up one size on the trail boss? Never really been a fan of duratracs. I wouldn't mind go a bit bigger then stock but don't want to kill my mpg.

Just had these 35x12.5R18 BFGoodrich KO2's put on yesterday. Trailboss with 1" level, no rubbing. They may have fit without the level, but I didn't like the rake. 

 

The manager at the 4 wheel shop looked at the truck and said there was no way they'd fit. I insisted that they mount one up and test it, they fit perfectly. I may have to adjust the wheel well liner a little, will have to see how close the tire gets once I flex it offroad. I'll take some better pictures when I get a chance. The pics make it look like the front is higher than the back, it's not, ground wasn't level. 

 

No more listening to the song of the Duratracs! :D

Curious what did this do to your MPGS when you put them on?

Did you have to use a spacer?  Any modifications?

Just the 1.5” MotoFab leveling kit. No trimming or rubbing

Just mounted 37s on my AT4, so up for sale are my accelera m/t 01 35/12.50r20, and I also have the motofab 1.5" leveling kit, and I have the stock AT4 20s. PM me if anyone is interested. I'm in Orlando and would prefer local pickup

20x9 -12 offset. Without the fender flares they would stick out about 2-2.5 inches

Any rubbing with the new 37s? I was looking and I noticed the fender flares do away with the mud flaps. Do you think the original front bumper would have been a major issue?

Yes there is still rubbing with the 37s even after I ditched the mud flaps and trimmed but I'm ok with it. And there is no way I would be able to fit the 37s with the front bumper.

    • I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.    
    • Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.
    • If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.
    • It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.
    • JR ! I just got the truck back from the Dealership today . The technician did a cold remote start on the truck this morning and it made the noise . It was determined that it was a starter issue and replaced it under warranty . Of course   it did not make the sound after a new starter was put in because the truck was not cold . We will we see what happens tomorrow morning when I start the truck cold  . Keep tuned !   Oh I found a video on YouTube of a cold start and it did the same thing your truck and mine do , I will see if I can find it and post it up
