Sacto Mod Day/Meet and Greet! Feb 22nd

I may be in if I can get the day off from work....I still need to try to get by behind the grill HIDS wired up correctly. I'm gonna try again before the meet but if I can get them working, hopefully someone can help me out on the mod/meet day!!!!

 

I think we're gonna be doin a lot of electrical on this mod day, bring it on dude

 

I'm a maybe Chris, I might come back from San Diego a day early. If i do I'm there!

 

I'll put you down Tim, hope you can make it

 

I saw you took a break from TW but it's great to see you back and organizing a sac meet! Good on ya brother!

 

Thank Greg too, he's letting us invade his shop and drive down property values

Thank you, I like hangin out with you guys, it's always fun to wrench on trucks and BS.

 

No mods on deck at the moment, but I might come hang out for a bit. I'll know for sure as the date gets closer.

 

Hey Guys,
Count me in I have a wish list of things but money is always an issue. Lol!
Will find something or just be a "Safety Supervisor" Really want to install new spyder headlights but have no clue how to start, more of a carpenter type.
Could bring some wine since I am the manager of a local winery here in Clarksburg.

 

Sugar Mill- Rendezvous winery

 

Yep, sure thing will always hookup a fellow TW member

 

The younger one with the beard. I am the Chef and Manager.

 

UC Davis guy is Steve, he is the coolest cat to work with.

 

My freind just got married there in August. That place is super nice!! West sac huh? I was born and raised over there

 

Its still there bro!!

"oh, you want chirri cheese fwies"! They are such nice people!

 

Don't hink I've met you yet, hope to see you there

Cool, yeah just my .02 for the headlights, yes I'm sure we can help you do those as the dudes with the know-how will be there, but if you do want to do that, make sure it's what you really want for two reasons. 1. I have seen where some of those light set ups are not really that good at output over stock so if there is any modification needed to the wiring like with HIDs or what not, it could be a pain to return it all to stock should you decide it wasn't to your liking. and 2. Our headlights are a PITA to get out, there's one bolt on the inside of the fender/bumper that sucks balls to get off, it's not impossible, just a pain. Which means it's not as quick as one would like to just swap these out. You will be the dude under the truck with a socket working on that bolt so you will understand what I'm saying
Other than that, if it's what you want and you bring everything parts-wise to put em in we'll help you. You'll learn a lot about your truck along the way.
Maybe if you show us what you're thinking of buying the guys will chime in here and lend their experiences on the topic.

 

Thats cool. I got married there at the sugar mill.

 

Ive been to weeding there as well.cool place we got to walk through the demoed area it was kinda creepy.

 

Hey just met Greg the other day at his shop and he showed me around. I have to say I was really impressed at the kind of work they're doing on the coating and quality of work. I can't wait to have them throw cerakote on some stuff I have.

I want to be there on the 22nd, but I already have plans. :-\ Visiting the in-laws at a beach house in/around Newport Beach for the weekend.

So kick back a couple for me. I'll meet you folks next time, before the summer starts hopefully?

 

After further investigation and seeing results I think I will go with these Anzo lights combo. Install seems easier and out put is a key for me. Still might have some others to do if I can manage to not blow my money else where. Possibly:

-Grillcraft grill
-Black Nerf Bars
-Behind Grill light mount
-Idk???

 

Those look like they could work, plug and play? the grill is doable but we have to cut out the old insert to install the new one and I don't think we would be patching the cut out parts of the old surround which would mean to hide it we mount the grill almost flush with the opening. Nerf bars would be easy, Lightbar goes in really easy, if you come up with a couple of lights with all the wiring and such that could be done. Maybe an LED bar?
