    While you are in there, and you haven't already done it, do a u bolt flip. I just put the super bumps on with the all pro flip kit. It takes a little fabrication but it's super easy to get them to work together.

    Merry (Late) Xmas NorCal! Haven't been around much, just a hard time of year working retail & trying to enjoy ourselves without my dad around. Got a new job starting the first week of the year. More money, get to play with guns all day, very excited for 2016! Might even get to spend some money on my truck! Hope everyone had a good season, can't wait to get out and play in some snow with you guys!!

    Just want to give everyone a heads up. I was recently scammed out of $50 well its not much but to me its the point that maters. I sold my rack for over a soft top to hats009 she is from bend Oregon and there story was they were heading to Baja to surf. She kept trying to talk me down lower but I wasn't trying to loose anymore then I already was on the deal. That rack was well worth $250 shit it was worth more. Well they gave me a $50 gift card to home depot and since I was going to buy a new dryer mine just died I though ya I will take that.Since they were members on here I thought I could trust them.anyone who might run into them pass on for me a big fuck you very much from me. Well I'm sure karma will get them back. I guess being a good person doesn't always pay off. the thing that really upsets me is I took the time to help them and install her soft top and my old rack for them. To only have them pay me less then I asked for. Shit they should of paid me more for installing there top and rack. I have her cell number maybe I should post it so everyone can give her a text on your thoughts.

    Make a thread and I'm sure it'll blow up, what with the recent events that happened here. Or pm Bob.

    Sucks balls. Pm a mod. Shit ain't gonna fly around here. I'm sure you saw it but a recent scam artist on here got the royal treatment of public shaming...

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/fucked-trextrd-is-a-fucking-thief-nsfw.397191/

    Call or text the member, give them the opportunity to make it right, and if they won't, blow em the fuck up. Maybe it's only $50 but it's still a shady fuckin person we don't need on our forum. There's plenty of bloodthirsty folks on here that would love to expose another scammer. Think of it as you doing your part to keep it from happening to anyone else.

    I tried on December 23rd.text and called no response. To add to that I sent them a pm on here today to see if that gets a response. This will be my last attempt to try and contact them before I go to the staff aka mods.

    At least it wasn't a total loss. They paid $200 in cash and talked me into taking there fake card for the rest. I'm more pissed that I helped them by installing it and putting there topper together. Only to be shit on.

    Can't hurt to get the ball rolling. Pm a mod, let em know the scoop. They'll probably attempt contact and wait a few days. Hopefully they get the hint and make it right. Or else. Unleash the ban hammers!!

    The fact that you went above and beyond to help them install it makes it a more personal matter. I'd be fuckin heated.

    devils advocate, but are you sure they knew the card was bogus? maybe they got it from someone else and had no idea?

    To add to this, if they are still on their surf trip, they may not be near cell/internet range. Or they are just dicks.
