Orange County CAF's: up to no good

Yes, I have LEARNED!!! LOL!!!

Just wondering about the fanny pack thing covering the front??? LOL!!!

 

LOL, who said I was gonna put the powder in a mesh fanny pack???

 

I couldn't stand having a sling!!! My arm "locked up" at the elbow one time and I just said to hell with the F'N thing.

 

That's a pretty thick branch. Definitely heavy enough to put a good ding in your shell/body-work!!!

 

Yeah, mine came from a fall and somehow/reason I had to wear an arm sling? So, I have to admit that it wasn't like your deal, but man did that shi* F'N HURT when my elbow area locked-up!!! I was lucky enough to not really need the arm sling.

 

Yeah, I remember the picture and damn did that hurt "MY" heart seeing that picture!!! Talk about a WTF coincidence???!!!

 

For years now I always made fun of the truck backpack, and always resisted in getting one. Until recently having been on a few runs in a row where the usual trash bag that's always placed somewhere in the bed has split or torn and had trash everywhere. And god only knows how much blew out on the highway if any on my way home. I finally broke down and got one just over a month ago and have been on a few runs since with it. All I gotta say is it's something that I wished I had years ago.

But what really convinced me to get one was a buddy had his stuffed with a 12 pack and firewood when we began a trail on day 1 of a 4 day trip, you can fit a lot of crap in it if needed besides using it just as a trash bag carrier.

 

So, is this the same as a "trasharoo" (sp)???

 

Yep!

 

yes, pretty much the fanny pack for overlanders

 

I currently have a white trash bag tied to the corner bed post!!! LOL!!!

Maybe I should start thinking in getting one myself then???

I need to start playing the lottery and buy shi* ahead of time, killing my CC, thinking I'm gonna be the next big winner and be able to pay it all off!!! BEING POOR SUCKS A$$

 

I understand that. My cc is what I'm current paying down rather than mods or getting a 4x4.

The trasharoo though is cool. I've used it for one weekend, intended to only have "my" trash in it but it was great to accommodate the campsite trash without issue. All my bedding and what not was in the bed. Keeping it all separate was a good feeling. Up front it isn't exactly cheap, but it'll last a long time. It's an investment to get a truck backpack but in my opinion well worth it.

 

@Redeyejedi were you able to do "Rewards Mine" yet???

 

Yeah, I really have been thinking about getting a "fanny pack" for a while now, but want to get all of the other stuff too??? LMAO!!! I just calculated All-Pro leafs and All-Pro rear bumper (wrap around) and just stared at the screen wondering W... T... F... does it take to gain such income??? You see me on the corner of 17th and Harbor? Or on the streets of TJ??? LOL!!!

 

People do more for $20.

I like a few luxuries in my life, like two ply toilet paper

Anyways, it is cheap in the grand scheme of things.

 

Mike @eccracer104, using the site right now just to get an idea ahead of time. Thinking about asking Discount Tire if they'll "special order" my wheels to see if I can try-fit them first with 31's on??? OR, just use the fit-me site and go from there? I can get my wheels from Summit Racing, that I know of? Like I said, about $63ish per wheel from what I remember and I really would like to keep it steelies... just kinda "old school" like that.

Anyways, thanks for the site!!!

 

Glad the site helps

Typically once a tire is mounted the wheel is yours.
You may be able to coax them into a simple test fit of the wheel. If the wheel fits I'm sure your tires will be fine as long as you have the same or lower backspacing.

 

Yeah, I know, but I used to be a tire tech for them for roughly 14yrs and we would "special order" and try fit for all the fags that came in looking for spinners and shi*. Now, "I" might become a part of THAT group!!! LMAO!!!

 

Don't be "that guy"! But I can't say I blame ya. I'd do the same! I hope the wheel work out for you! So long as they clear your calipers and have the offset/back spacing you need you'll be set!
