help with installation

Thanks man! Great insight

Great! Thanks

So even though this is a big shiny truck you can still have great protection even with a few weak spots, let me explain.

The most likely first or initial shot from LEO will be front and center, that big grill shouts "hey look at me". You will likely have a few seconds before the shooter starts panning around to get a lock and makes it over to lights or fogs. A good slow and kill (JTK) should be accomplished by then, and you're good to go.

We strive to get jam to gun (JTG) in testing, and that is great for peace of mind, but in the real world a few seconds is all we really need or all we should really use.

Thank you!

But, iirc, the center head needs to be on a higher or lower plane than the other two sensors due to interference issues.
One of RALETC guys or BRD will be along to help shortly I'm sure.

I suppose that if you close the hood gently, it shouldn't matter..

Great insight! Thanks

From what i read , the heads perform better
when aligned horizontally in the same plane,
as per Tom's recipe....hope i learned well :-!
