    Haha that's awesome. My place and work is safe from the water luckily. So much rain though! Over a foot of rain in some areas. Crazy shit! I didn't even notice this big puddle today and I went through it :| It was about 4" deep only but it made a splash. Truck is cleanest it has ever been underneath wow

    Definitely not Vic, I don't know that guys name but I saw that runner at the gear shop grand opening a few weeks ago. Vic's 3rd gen is permanently out of commission.

    Definitely now. Especially since they're worn a bit. They're death on ice. Especially with 1wd. Reeeno403 and I had some near death experiences hahahhahaha

    Diff skids are expensive. I decided to have a go at building my own.

    Looks good but go a little farther past the pinion if you can just on the bottom

    yah protecting the pinion is the main part on our diffs that need to be done, also I wish I have access to my drain plug without pulling it off and on, not a huge deal BUT sometimes its about convenience, when i get my next place Im going to make sure i get a lift put in, will make maintenance that much easier

    Been looking at your build a while now, I have a question. You regret getting the LB over a SB? Ever come to an obstacle that you couldn't pass where a SB would? Thanks, nice truck.

    there are days I find myself bitching at myself for buying a LB but I have yet to be 100% turned around due to being too long, i just adjust my line, a lot of the times I have to spot myself up as the SB guys dont see the lines I do.....


    I havent heard Jamie has ever been stuck in that situation either

    I like my long bed far too much to give it up. Yea narrow spots are a bit tougher along with large mounds (see Bulhas's sig). But you learn to do what you need to get around those issues... do I regret buying the long bed? At times ... but when it comes down to it I love it!

    I really really wish I had a short box. I have definitely come across hit I can't do because im too long. However there's pretty much always a way to make it happen.

    Wow Jaime! How you can turn around what we talked about in person to what you posted once you got behind your keyboard is amazing. I approached you in good faith hoping to resolve your issues with AP, I even offered to take the kit back if you were not happy and refund your money to which you replied you wanted to keep it. I never said the kit is perfect but we are willing to work with you to make it right. You also admitted in person to not greasing the bushings and thats why they failed prematurely. We use top quality FK Rodends and uniballs with our kits but like we talked about they will not last long in the harsh Canadian enviroment.

    I had a great time at The Gear Shop grand opening, met lots of nice people and happy customers. I feel I have offered everything I can to make things right by you including taking the kit back to no avail. Your story when talking face to face is different from what you post on the web.

    I won't be posting back on this thread or turning it into a pissing match
    but I just had to let you all know that we have tried to deal with Jaime.

    Thanks,
    Jon
