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

You still have the older design right? I want those since they're longer and I'm using for quick fists. If @SuperBad can't help us out I can meet you on Saturday over by your 'hood.

 

ill give them a shout...thanks

 

Found the answer to my own question, carry on.

Yeah I can meet up and grab however many are needed to be dropped off to people. If I need to grab payment I can bring that back to you also. I live about 15 minutes away but have to go to that area to get to 75. I could meet you saturday anytime(I think) or sunday on my way out @730.

I see you already found out KB Voodoo does. Right now they are the only ones that make it. I'm going to get a set sometime soon myself and probably maybe the alum tail gate cap to keep all the rails even in height. I have a Mobtown tailgate cap but I'm not sure I want to use it... Impulse purchase .

 

For the other 3rd gen owners, if you haven't seen, there is a possible rear diff leak recall on our trucks.

I'm going to look at mine and have already asked letsgoplaces(last link in the 2nd quote) to run my vin to check and see if its in the list or not. I know that mine doesnt drip but I'm still going to check to be sure it isnt seeping. I think I'm fine since I didnt notice anything when I installed the lift.

 

My vin wasn't on the list.

 

Thats good to hear. I'm guessing I'll hear tomorrow if i'm on the list, hoping i'm not but if I am thats what the warranty is for!

 

If your warranty is out they still have to honor recalls. It's a safety thing. Either way you'll be taken care of. Im actually going to take mine in for a flutter in the hood. It's only at highway speeds with a lot of head wind but still something to check out.

 

Yeah, I dont know what I was thinking. For the hood from what I hear they just put more adhesive between the outer skin and the skeleton frame. I have hood struts I want to install but I have heard if I end up with that issue they wont touch it if my hood starts to separate if the hood struts have been installed... With my truck being <8 mo old I'm a little worried about it happening this summer with the heat.

 

I could see out fine, but looking in looked dark

 

Going tomorrow to have them check out the truck and see what they can do.

 

If you are that concerned about people looking in, you could always make curtains for the side/rear glass. When the curtains are off, the tint would match the truck

 

It is not just a privacy thing. I had my old truck like that, and it was such a difference in the summer between the front seats and rear seats temp wise. Would like it to also help keep the fridge cool as well.

 

Well, it made it just shy of 13k miles before its first blemish that I didnt cause. Someone backed into my rear bumper at work yesterday. Just put a ding in the step pad luckily.

 

Those fuckers!!! I hate asshats who dont respect others stuff.

On a side note....time for plate rear bumper.

 

I'm looking into one myself

 

Eventually. I called Toyota last night and my price on the step pad alone is damned near $300. Expensive little piece of plastic.

 

I'm def in the market. My problem is I don't want to give up my BSM and Parking assist. I know one fab shop has one with cutouts for the BSM but IMHO it looks like shit. If @Pelfreybilt would do one I would buy it today.

 

Im going with the off camber fab rear bumper.

 

@Silverspool @Suprajim54 @Steawy27
I met up with @Zac of all trades last night so I'll have the bed rail mounts you guys want with me on sunday.
