    Can't do the 11th or 12th but maybe the weekend. I am not too much into wheeling to wheel these days. Just spent the entire week fitting a battleship down a hallway. By the weekend I want to hike, camp, eat, and drink. Lol

    Well no shit lol. You have tools, experience, and money if you need extra parts. All I've got is determination lol. I wouldn't take that bet even if my life depended on it.

    I only commented because its a Jeep

    I love those old Jeeps, I'd rock one for a beach/wheeling rig. Not my first choice obviously, but if it's cheap why not? My step dad had a 82 Jeep Scrambler and I loved that thing. So much fun to drive in the summer around town.

    I get that. I used to be all for that. Spending a ton of time at work doing it with the wrong Equiptment is offputting. Lol

    Unfortunately no. I barely have enough time to ship orders on time. We've been focusing on rear and now front bumpers for Tacoma. I have my 3rd gen T4R that hasn't been touched since the day it came home.

    I am doing my best. It is just another guy and me. I do all the fab work, we split design, he does website and accounting.

    We sell sliders faster than we can make them which leaves little to no time to do new stuff. Trying to figure out a good business plan to fix that.

    Can't wait for you to start playing around with that third gen. I'm in no immediate rush but if you run a sale on the first go of rears and sliders, I'm in. I'd love to help support someone local and be saved from some of those shipping costs

    Shipping to you probably won't be horrible. $125ish as a guess.

    I will have it done by end of July. We are sponsoring Toyota Takeover at Rausch Creek in PA. I want to have it done and take it to that.

    Probably, sliders are long. Our pallet we ship our sliders on are 24" x 96", average cost to CA is around $180. Bumper skid should be smaller by a considerable amount.

    I don't really need a rear bumper but with a bike carrier the 3rd gen hitch is too Damn low. It would also be nice to carry fuel on the back and not the roof.

    I am starting to get into places where extra fuel is a must. Especially with the supercharger. Can't always find premium. Canyonlands is so bad. I can only do a few miles of exploring without worrying about running out.
