The Lair

doesn't matter to me which one we take man haha well I am going to print off receipts for the skids and y pipe this week and I will claim those for sure, tho if I'm not mistaken parts that are manufactured in north America don't need to be claimed so technically none of our stuff needs to be claimed lol pretty much just be honest, tell them I have some American made skid plates and a exhaust pipe and maybe just say that we bought some used suspension parts off our friends. we could always ask buddy a couple questions on our way down or something.

 

Bring him some high quality maple syrup as a bribe..

 

Skimming over this it looks like you'll be exempt from a duty tax for it!

yeah I was just looking at that hahaha I know for sure that the skids are made in the US hahaha and its safe to say the y-pipe is too hahaha I don't see anywhere on the URD site that says Made in USA but I'm certain they are

 

Bring some metal stamps. Stamp it "Made in USA".

 

Can you guys install the skids plates in the U.S. before you cross the border? Then you might not have to declare it

 

Hand em a beer? Lol

 

I forgot the "eh" lol

 

I don't mind taking my truck either lol it makes me think when I ask my gf what she wants for dinner, and she says: don't know, and you?

Thanks for the link!

 

Suh!

 

it is potentially an option. but I got them bare metal which poses 1. they would probably be rusted by the time I get home and 2. they would be nice and shiny 3. I would have to crawl under my truck in the snow to take my current one off haha then for the t case skid to be installed I would also have to install my URD Y-pipe in a parking lot as well. I have no idea how well that would go and I am not sure how rusted the exhaust bolts are. I would also be praying that I can get the stock 02 sensor out.

 

well since i don't really feel like doing a parking lot install we can take ur truck this time so u can show it off and then next time we can take mine hahaha cuz I'm sure there will be a next time!

 

Does BruteForce or Mobtown make aluminum plate bumpers? not that I am in the market but I like to tease myself lol I like the Pelfrey Built bumpers but god damn they are far af!

 

Hahaha alright then! But I won't wash it, so there is nothing to show

 

I don't see them on @Mobtown Offroad website but they probably could make one, since they have all the stuff to do so.

 

@Bocsy44 @Kemosabe The "eh" really confuses most people, they don't know it's it's a yes, no, maybe. When the border patrol officer asks about any stuff, just finish with "eh" lol

 

yeah I was looking at the site and didn't see it haha I don't wheel hard enough that I really need a steel bumper, so I was thinking of just getting aluminum. I was checking out Brute Force too but they don't have it listed, but I think @bski22 has aluminum front?

 

Figured out why my CV boots came undone. I was using these pliers, which are meant for this type of clamp. This clamp is used on the inboard most CV boot.These worked perfectly for me.






The ones that failed were this type of clamp, and I should have used these types of pliers. These are on the other boots.

 

I do. Only one he’s ever made. Pelfrey makes one. But I could mention something Billy about making another one. He did say he wouldn’t do it again
