San Diego BS Thread.

Saturday the 27th I'd like to throw a barbecue at my place. A meet-and-greet if you will. Any and all are welcomed. barbecue, some delicious smoked pork and or tri-tip. Bring a desert or something cold to drink. Should have corn hole up, and the fire pit rockin.

 

time and location?

 

El Cajon, probably around 5 o'clock. I will keep an update on it.

 

If anybody needs any work or bids let me know, have few free slots in the next 2 weeks so let me know if I can help, trying to lock them in if possible. I can do pretty much anything from tube bending, to MIG and TIG welding, fabrication, and any drivrtrain and motor work and maintenance, exhaust work and re-routes for the HC transfer case skids, front and rear bumpers including wiring all the lights and winch if eqquipped, suspension work of all types including rear shock relocations plus much more and am also a Master Toyota tech trained by the Toyota regional office

See my thread below for more information and examples of my work!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to read this, means a lot to me!!!!

 

@Speed Freek when funds permit I have cam tab gussets on my list and I'll be coming to you for the job. @goblue82 speaks very highly of you , seen your work and it's top notch!

 

Thanks! I try very hard to keep everyone happy!! I appreciate it.

 

Hey J,
Thanks for the advice on my suspected over heating problems. You were dead on right about the hoses from the coolant resi being worn out and the OE spring clamps being garbage. Replaced all for about $5 and no more coolant spewing in the engine bay

 

Awesome, glad I could be of help bud, hope you are doing well and having fun with the truck!

 

There's a place in oceanside I've been looking into, I live in an apt complex and they've been really cracking down on tenants wrenching in their garages. basically a DIY with access to a shop lift and tools.

There are some dismantlers in Otay mesa, might be able to score one there.

 

I see another fire in what looks like the Camp Pendelton area as well as the Bluecut fire (which looks to be a nasty one!!), I hope its not all kicking off again!
With the heat wave and slight winds we are experiencing its not good at all...hope they can get handle on it soon!
As a former FF/EMT doing work in full turnouts is a MFer!!!

 

It's Pendelton for sure, looks to be out towards Fallbrook.

 

Managed this Softtopper (CL find) for $200... haven't cleaned it up yet but aside from rusty tie down buckles, seems pretty solid. Doesn't look half bad with glass either.

Looks like a heli crashed. It seemed to be in the center of pendleton. I think Fallbrook is fine.

Weather said the humidity is suppose to drop really low for a few days with a breeze. Going to be a rough fire season.

 

Hi all,

Does anyone have 4 spare wheels or jack stands to prop the 4 corners of my truck up for two days? I wish to dip my wheels black and I only have one jack. Could anybody help?

Thanks!

 

@Speed Freek has rebuilt an engine, installed Mid Travel kits on two separate trucks, maintained Long Travel kits on two separate trucks, wired countless lights on three different trucks, replaced hubs on two trucks, serviced brakes, and the list goes on.

His quality of work and attention to detail are at the same level for my 2000 Tacoma or my 2016 4-Runner. He treats every truck like it is his own.

 

Thank you Matt!

 

Have a slightly used (2-3 times in my driveway to jack up truck; never offroad) 60" Hi-Lift X-TREME with minimal surface rust for sale. $60 cash. I just want it out of my garage.

 

That's a great deal!

 

Jason, give me a text or call please. Have a service question for you. Thanks!
