What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Unfortunately it's not that easy for us to find qualified and motivated fabricators up here, and we build our products from start to finish. Pelfrey does not. We may both be toyota armor companies but we're very different in how our products are designed and manufactured.
We were very much aware of the backlog and our lead times were updated after the sale, they were not 4-12 weeks on a bumper but it doesn't matter if I state otherwise- The customer is always right regardless of what they saw or what we may have stated. Plus it is stated on our tire carrier page that they add 2-4 weeks minimum to a bumper order.
It is what it is, we turn out high quality parts that we have built in house since we started and we're 4-5 guys around the shop. We have thousands of happy customers, and a handful of unhappy over the years, 99% of the time our customers are happy in the end once they see the quality and thought-out parts they receive.

 

Anyone know reliable vacuum caps? This dorman's over a year old and gone to shit. Was a quick buy at autozone.

 

Gorgeous house

 

Agree.... however I need a damn airplane hangar house for all my shit. Lol

 

Friend of mine has that in Denver

We visited about 6 years ago
First time
Got there late at night

Wake up and look out window and wtf Cessna going down the street

Then my friend tells me to check out his garage
Almost a 40 Car Garage (he had 11 cars)

All the houses had hangers

It is awesome

 

I live in middle GA near an Air Force Base so lots of retired pilots live around here. There are like 3 communities near me with them.....it would be great to have one

 

I know, I just like being extra. The 2nd gens do it and I thought it's a pretty cool feature.

 

Got one side done... ES LCA bushings, OEM inner and outer tie rods, OEM lbj and OEM rack boot.

 

Mighty fine job!

 

Did you have to get longer ubolts? Did you relocate the shock mount? I just ordered the all pro expos

 

I bought some at Ace Hardware. They have a variety of sizes and colors in the hardware drawers. Mine are still going strong after 3 years and no cracks. Not sure if there is an Ace by you though.

 

Thanks for the feedback, gonna check it out. If not I'll review some online.

 

As we've discussed via PM-
The situation you described in your messages of the supposed situation/conversation between your friend and I at the event would not have been how I would have handled that question- I would have stated that your friends order status was not available at the event. And as you said, you do not personally know me.... I do not believe your friend was, in fact, talking with me. Most likely Nick who was in our booth as a friend helping us out and would not have had any order information to share.

 

These should be sticky...

 

Lucky you

Where I live something like that would be about $7-9M

 

...At least I’m not the only one that went to “101 tensioner school”. I decided to replace my jacked up tensioner too! I’m glad you made it thru the frustrating part. ...I’m good for another 100k now.

 

So you have $1000 to spend on coilovers. What would you go with?......

 

Only a 1000.

Hey Eric,

Here are the bolts from the incorrect hardware. The short bolt was in front bumper and is a larger diameter and different thread pitch from the skid plate hardware.

So the long bolt is the correct length just the wrong thread and diameter from the nuts welded onto the bumper.

 

I knew that would be YOUR response. Could spend the extra coin, just means gotta work some OT
