DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Man... see below

It looks like ass cheese, dont let this iphone 7 camera fool you. And if you already think it looks like ass cheese or dont know what ass cheese looks like, youll find out sunday. They could use a pro makeover.

I tell you what, this climbed right above being in the back of a police cruiser on my list of things ill never do again. Kinda wish i hadnt but it can be undone. May cruise around like this a few more days till i cant sleep anymore then possibly go back to oem.

 

Oh really? You don't like it? Just paint, or in general?

 

I just found a trip thread involving Moab, here. If you havent been or ever thought about going to Moab, check out this thread and you will change your mind. Its a beautiful place, I was lucky enough to spend a few years in Utah as a very young kid and will always compare other placed to it. I wil also be going back this year or next year to really enjoy the places my truck is being built to get me to!

 

The whole process was a pain in the ass and was just overall frustrating. Fitment isnt great. Im just glad im in about 80 dollars for the supplies to paint them and not 500+

 

I say $80 well spent. Need to see in person

 

Yea, to different leafs. Spoke with Headstrong this afternoon, their in kind of a difficult spot with this situation themselves as they have a distributor drop ship the springs so it's more or less on ARB for the mix-n-match situation that's going on right now. I'm calling ARB first thing in the morning and see what they say, going to push hard for an exchange on the spring since I just dropped some serious coin on this whole OME (aka ARB) setup.

On a side note, anyone looking for a set of bolt on sliders...

 

I've never kept vehicles long. There's a chance they won't serve the purpose I need. And I have bad luck with cars and shops. Hence why my plate reads KURSED. If we want to sell or trade it in, they can be removed easier and sold. Rather than cutting and prepping. Simple unbolt and go. We don't wheel. So having them welded isn't necessary. Although I understand it's ideal.

I'm trying to avoid steps. I hate 99.9% of the step options. Wife is short and she needs some sort of step. And people suck and I'd like to avoid additional door dings. It's kinda a win/win if it works out.

Will I rule out weld-on? No. Just a preference. I'm not saying any shop in particular will fuck things up, but my track record shows if it can, it will happen. I've had a damaged Sierra, blown trans, full set of wheels fucked and other minor things. I can't weld but I can buy bolt-on and install them. Or I fucking hope I can.

I'm bitter these days. I just want simplicity. I'm still open and will think on it. We aren't sold on anything in particular just yet. Moreso looking.

 

Any of you fucks here sous vide? I'm making some pastrami for Saturday. One is getting 160 degrees for 48 hours and 3 hours of smoke. The other is getting straight 10-12 hours of smoke.

 

Would anyone be interested in a set of TRED1100s in Red, with two mounting brackets, and a way to mount to a Prinsu.
$200.00 - Bought them January 12th from Boss4x4

Also thinking about selling my Rigid Industries 20" Lightbar with Rigid Amber Covers, would have a brand new unused wiring harness. $300.00 OBO - Bought it on December 13th, 2016 from AutoAnything

Can bring to Jambo or can bring to Terrell if you are in DFW.

 

Family is over in east texas have to pass through dallas to get home

should go big you can squeeze 37's in there now with a little firewall work

 

I want the rack but let me think on it... im wanting to get away from the OEM one i have, and i will be at Jambo...

 

Not selling the rack.... just the TREDs and the Rigid Lightbar... rack is just in the picture.

 

ugh need more coffee brain miss the period and though it said prinsu $200

 

He's not asking he's telling you that your selling the rack

 

Ha... not for $200 I am not... Plus I need that rack to hold possible a future RTT...

Also... did you get my money? You did not reply to my text.

 

@Naveronski would you be interested in the glass for what im in them for? 80.00

 

Okay, so ARB is sending me a revised spring, I was so ready for an argument/fight over getting the full spring vs having to update the older style spring, and they're just like 'yea, what's a good address for you and we'll get it out'. Caught so off guard I forgot to ask about a timeline, but figure I'll wait and see a week or so before I call back. No clue what I'm going to do with three leaf springs as it doesn't sound like they want the other one back, or at least made mention of arranging me to drop it off anywhere...

 

I am interested, yes. I'd like to see them in person before I commit. My main concern is how they'd fit my bumper.

 

Ill be at Geremy's Sunday, otherwise I may take them off this week. I want bigger tires but its just not the right time for them yet, so OEM fenders probably going back on.

 

I got the text but the money showed the next day my bad. I've got shitty service at my house
