Apologies for the blasphemous bronco photo, lol. I got this tire mounting platform from Bad *** Tents. I have 2 questions for the herd. I'd like to mount my maxtrax mk2s to this but I dont see any mounting points that line up easily. I think their stock photos show a different brand of recovery boards. Anybody mounted maxtrax to one of these? 2nd question, I'd like to also use this as a mount for snow skis, Ive got some thoughts on how to rig it up but if any of you have figured it out already I'd appreciate you sharing your solution.
Thanks.

 

I have the same tire mount and was able to find two holes in the middle (top and bottom) that would line up with holes on my ARB traction boards. Went to Lowe’s and bought some large carriage bolts, washers and nuts to mount them. I just keep an socket and ratchet in the car to remove if I ever need to use them on the trail. I suppose if you can’t find any holes that line up you can always drill two and go that route. Just for fun the pic’s show my 7 year old son ‘helping’ and our first trip into Pisgah.

The BA mounting pad works great and I’m a big fan.

 

email Lucky8. They sold me the mount with the dampers and hardware without the boards. I’m assuming something like this could be workable for Maxtrax but you should confirm with them.

my set up with Tred Pros:

 

A little off topic but what size BFG's you got wrapped on those there grey Tuffants? Looks great. 255/70s or something else?

 

Yes, 255/70 R18. They are amazing off-road. A little louder on the highway and around town, but it tolerable for me.

 

Thanks very much. I tried zooming in but couldn't make out the numbers.

I've pretty much decided I'm going for the same exact setup when I finally spring for the Tuffants. I'm liking the grey ones more and more.

Sorry for going off topic. I'll exit stage left.
