then you might want the HD ones like peter has.

 

Now that you guys have been talking leaf packs, I replaced mine about a year ago. Decided to check because I couldn't remember what I had. It's Dakkars with 8 leaf. Six on top and 2 lower. It rides a little stiff but I needed the capacity for work.

 

I got my undercoating done at Brimell Toyota. Spoke to the service manager and the mechanic ahead of time to spray only the frame. Basically stood under the lift and pointed to the mechanic where to spray. This is the same stuff they use for the frame rust campaign minus the etchant. They do a much better job when you pay $200 out of pocket...

 

So why did you NOT want everything sprayed?

 

I don't want them spraying inside doors where the goop can gum up window regulators. Also, upgraded suspension parts like exposed shock shafts and uniballs would suffer if contaminated.

I still have stock leafs that I'm going to replace next year (either Wheelers/Alcan or Icon RXT), probably will just go full Icon RXT stage 1.

 

Gotcha, that makes sense. The toyota undercoating is only external they do not spray it inside anywhere, so that was not a concern for me. They did not spray my front shocks shaft, that is exposed behind the coil. They did coat my entire upper control arm which I was ok with since I have SPC LR uppers with the sealed ball joint.

They also did the entire back suspension, the rear billies have a shroud around the shaft so its all good.

 

When I got my truck I had the dealership do their rust proof, I wasn't too impressed by it.
I went and got it done at corrosion free about a month ago...I thought that guy did a good job, thorough.

 

omg the amount of snow today is

How are you looking in the muskoka's @over60

 

What problems do you have with Bolton...

 

OK.... now tell us about the rude guy.

 

I'm looking at about 24"-30" of snow here and it's coming down today...

Bring in any Brass Monkeys, tonite that you might have left outside.... It's going down around -20C... and some wind chill.

 

Terrible experience there. They kept upping the price from on the one they originally told me then tried to charge me on the accessories that were on it. The truck was being driven by there service manager. The number I was originally told to the number at the end was 10, 000 more

 

sounds like mine with Scarborough Toyota.
well just bad experience I mean.

mine was them lying to me about work performed that they never did.

 

Brutal man! I don't understand these guyd

 

Uhmm, there's a stereotype, usually built on some truth

 

Would it be too offensive if I asked my friend with a Jeep of he wanted to come along to this meet? Lol.

 

I don’t care. As long as they are able to have a good time.

 

Hope he can take some jokes about it though.

 

Who was the service manager - Fabian ... he was an a$$ !!! That is the dealership closest to me... that's why I asked.
