Florida B.S. Thread

That's right, I am not dead....

Not too much, just staying really busy with work. Figured it was time to do some TLC on the truck so I swapped out my worn out KM2's for some BFG AT KO2's, which led me to realize my wheel bearings are bad. So now I have to replace those too... My brakes are pulsing pretty bad too, so I might replace my rotors while I am at it. How you doing?

 

Thanks for the tip. I thought that anything pass that residential area was public land. Any other areas with hills or rocks to try out atrac system or 4 lo. Thanks ma'am

 

Some of you have already seen this on fb. Just thought it was too cool not to share.

 

I requested but they haven't approved my request

 

That's odd cause a Dalton is one of the admins and I think he's from tampa. He was at the Lakeland meet.

 

I remember him talking about that page at Tamlando, I thought I requested but I guess not. Can't even find the page now lol

 

must be blocked or something

 

I can like and share but no comments or post anything

 

almost, the hills to the left are fine! we've gone on the hills to the right, but if the guy happens to be out there at the same time he gets grumpy. there's plenty of other hills and rocks. there's a huge crevice out there too everyone likes, but i have no idea how to tell you to get there. wes could tell you.

 

I pm'd dalton.

 

Nice I just did my bearings and found out my upper ball joints are shot so waiting on those.

 

Anybody have experience with getting their manual transmission rebuilt? The 2nd and 3rd gear synchros are on their way out in my r150f transmission and I'm trying to decide if rebuilding or buying a low mileage unit from a salvage yard would be a better option.

 

Thanks Im on now.

 

Hey I got a question for ya guys. I've got one guy wanting my front fenders and another guy wanting the bedsides...only issue, I'm not too sure how much I should ask and how I would ship them. I'm assuming something along the lines of fastnel for shipping since they are big. the fenders retail for $600 (pair) new and bedsides are $1200 new (pair). But my fenders of course are "trail rated" you could say lol, they bear the scars of offroading and they are not in the best condition and are more like "well used". So do you guys think with the condition that my fenders are in asking $250-300 for the front as a pair and 400-ish for the rear set a fair deal? Or do you guys think it's too expensive for their condition? I'm really horrible with asking prices for things lol, any suggestions and help is much appreciated lol

 

Try U-ship. I would think $250 for fronts and $250 for the rears would be fair, but that's just an uneducated guess.

 

Cool thanks, ya it gives me a ballpark figure. The fenders have trail scratches that could be buffed out and 1 major scratch from a screw driver on one, then the bedsides, one of the is a little bent from a wheel spacer accident and the other has some overspray from rusto bedliner that could be taken off with a clay bar I think. I need to figure out how I would package the fenders, either with a big box or on a pallet or something. I'm thinking big boxes or something

 

Wrap them up and strap to a pallet

 

Thank you I sent him a pm.

 

Myself and Wes will be meeting at 4 Rivers by UCF around 730ish tonight if anyone would care to join us. Open invite for all.
