Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Anyone know of someone more local who offers something like these?
After looking at my bumper mounts, i need to beef it up. Mine are bent to shit

Ive seen a few bent ones. I thought of tracing it out and cutting by hand.

 

If you bring this up to Greg at Rock & Road I'm sure he could CNC out a few pieces for you that will work.

 

I might do the same after seeing this.
Not sure if this is for real or some kind of fuckup but....
What a fuckin joke! $100 for handling?!

 

Precious metal

 

If I'm paying $100 for handling, there better be a sammich involed for after.

 

@Bentrodder

 

Yeah. Was hoping to just get something pre-made and ready for a quicker install.
I think we will just make something

 

Is this for the front?

 

6-speed V8 you say..... miss this car!

 

Yeah

 

I'm running 4.56's I think I'm at 2700 at 70mph. And what is it with pizza cutters? I know it's the super cool thing with the overlanding crowd but can't figure out why.

 

There's a small handful of folks that have successfully boosted those V8s for many years



Otherwise I'll be apart of the hundreds that made their rods go boom

 

Dont you have a Pelfreybilt front? Does it not have the reinforcements that go behind the frame?

 

I do. And it does. I also have bruteforce bumper supports that go on the side.
Got a couple really hard winch pulls in blackrock as well as some others previously. Not sure when it happened, but just noticed yesterday. Actually @Bentrodder did. I just want to get it beefed up before something like this happens




Although this looks like it could have been just a dumbass doing dumbass things, but who knows.

 

Looks like @jberry813 just got blocked.

So it looks like this and you've still managed to pull it forward? That's nuts lol don't pull so hard on it haha

 

Or give them to me

@Overlanerd

 

Cody is selling a shit ton of early Toyota parts, some stuff crosses over. Trail gear beadlocks might be for sale too.

If you go dig I to it, you'll find that the small contact patch and the friction it creates (psi) can provide excellent traction, and you'll see most military or commercial rigs using these profiles. The exception would be if conditions are soft and deep and warrant better floatation most of the time.
