What engine do you have?

Did you not have to remove that wiring box with the 3 bolts on the inside of the cab where that grommet in the firewall is? I looked underneath on my truck and it seems to be covering that grommet location

do you find this better than a grill grommet

how many probes can go thru and the correct location on the grill.

great idea! will it accommodate 2 probes? Thanks!!

This is the best video on hooking up a CB or Ham radio that I have found on UA-cam. I've been trying to find a video for this installation on my 2017 Chevy Silverado. I have one question, I am wanting to include running my antenna by this method also. Will the RG58 also fit thru this grommet? The coax has PL259 male connectors on the ends, which are standard size for most all CB radios. These connectors are about the diameter of a nickel. My Silverado still looks new, and I want a "clean install" that doesn't show any wires. I am going to mount a 5 foot FireStik on the front truck bed wall, then run the coax underneath the truck to the engine, and don't want to remove plastic door molding.

I just put 285/75/18s on my 17 chev and had to take off the front flaps and cut the fender wall on a 2” level. Rubbed like hell.

So simple. Thank you

What size engine do you have 6cyl/5.3/6.2

How easy was it to get through the inner grommet of the firewall?

Great video, I did this exact thing for my Smokey Joe mini WSM. How many probes can you fit through that port?

Grrat mod, i did this for my Weber Mini WSM. Its a clean low profile probe port.

That looks good! Skinny tires are the way to go. Farm tractors here in SoCal after it rains track in the thickest of mud with ease using tall skinny tires.

Great idea and video thanks for posting it. Question: How much does the nipple protrude into the grill? My current port interferes with the placement of the grate . I have a 26 Premium with the lid holder which places 2 cap nuts on the opposite side of the handle. I installed one of those fancier looking nipples with the compression sleeve , but as said above it makes getting the grate in a pita.

Thanks. I was looking for this setup... I have the same rims

Can you see the wire right away if you use that firewall? Or do I need to remove the box underneath the dash?

Why haven’t I thought of this…. Thanks man.

So I guess I should be great with 285/70/17 with 2 inch level. 2015 silverado 1500 with mud guards. No rub.? Rims 8.5 +25 offset.

Looks great.👍 I had been thinking about doing a 2.5 inch rough country with 275 or 285s on stock 18 inch rims with my 2016 Sierra Z71 extended cab.

Thank for the tricks and tips! Awesome! 🤟

It looks like it has been about a year, any rust where you drilled? Are the lamp nipples and hex nuts tight enough to keep moisture away from the exposed edge of the kettle? Thanks!

Great mod. But I would use a 1" nipple and cut off any excess. The ½" was not quite long enough.

Alex, thank you for the great video. I am going to Ace hardware tomorrow to purchase the parts to make this mod to my grill.

Got me a 2016 with 3 inch on front 2 inch in back. Would you say that you could go with a taller but not wider tire and it wouldn’t have any issues? Like how much clearance do you have as far as being able to go full wheel lock and no rubbing?

I’m glad I found this before performing a different mod! Have you noticed any smoke leaks or change in maintaining temperature when using a single probe?

Great idea. Simple, easy to follow instructions. Question: can two probe wires fit through the same nipple?

Wow. This is an awesome idea and exactly what I was looking for. I have to say this is the quickest I have subscribed to a channel ever.

Nice! Might do this on my pellet grill. How many probe wires fit thru 1 port at a time?

Very neat job, thanks for sharing all the details. Quick question, do the hinged grates on the master touch open and close without catching on the inside of the pit?

Great idea!👍👍

Nice job, thanks for the info.

Genius! Easy. Simple.

Best solution I’ve seen so far. Bravo!

I just installed two brass temp probe ports as you explained and they look great and were super easy to do. Special thanks for you idea and demo/instruction on how to do this modification!! Looks so professional !!

Rub??

285 from Goodrich are 32s

Best port mod video I’ve seen! Thank you!

Making a list of mods for my new Weber Kettle and this is now on the list. Great video, so glad you showed the parts while in the original packaging, makes it easier to find the parts.

Do you think these tires would rub on a stock trail boss?

Hey man, any issues off road with rubbing? Looking at picking a set up

With the price of wood right now that was about a $10 piece of coal though!

Hey nice job!!

What PSI are you running in these tires?

Did you have to do any gear adjustments going from 265s?

Hi, sweet truck.. I currently have the same tires 285 70 17 and I have an option to go 285 75 17.. I have a Chevy Silverado 2005 and I have a two and a half inch level. I talked to one shop that said it would be a big mess with rubbing but it looks like I might have to only trim a tiny bit on the driver's side plastic.. I'm running American racing Baja 0 offset.

thanks! getting ready to install same size on stock rims on my 2013 silverado with 2.5 lift/level kit. now i know it will work awesome!

2.5" took my rake out perfectly!!!

Your set-up is perfect. Noticeably different from stock, but not obnoxious and not a trailer queen. Looks like a no nonsense truck. I have a 17 ram 1500 with the factory 265 70 17's on. THIS is exactly the look I'm going for also. More tire than rim. Thanks for the video.

Nice Bing and Alax

How it work towing a trailer?
