I think we all got BAMF back then

 

Ah, gotcha. Looking around today I'm leaning toward mobtown. They seem to have great reviews, and it doesn't hurt those on the Correct Coast for shipping costs.

 

Neighbors....I might have a couple of things for sale locally.....oem tie downs and a hood deflector 2012 DC. TY

 

it is a DBSC, I'm not sure if they would fit on an access cab, I'm pretty sure the mounting holes would be different since the frames are different.

 

Like the d rings for the bed?

 

YA

 

I'll have a few things soon too. Need to pull them off my truck, might do it this weekend. OEM 6' Bed mat (which I won't want to ship), 8" powered subwoofer, and an Ultragauge for sure.

 

Check out Budbuilt too-

They are in NC? I think - and have some nice looking 3rd gen sliders - pretty reasonable price too.

If I swap out my SOS ones it’ll be for Budbuilts or Mobtowns. Would have gone BAMF when I was in Cali ... but their leed times were really long at the time.



On another note- got almost all the stuff for my CB and AUX fuse panel. Still waiting on the actual CB radio... delayed in shipping... bummer... but since I ordered from right channel radio I should get a credit for the delay.

Here is the plan for the fuse panel- relays are waterproof and will be mounted underneath the panel when I need them. For now it will just be the Ham and CB radios hooked up.

 

So.. I got in touch with the guy selling the SCS wheels but he's about 4 hours away from me and since i'm flying out this weekend I can't make it up there to grab them. Is there anyone in the VT/NH area of Burlington, VT mind picking up a set of wheels for me and holding them until the 26th when @DoubleRGirl can get up there to grab them?

anyone? You get to meet @DoubleRGirl ....

 

Same here. Though it's saved me from sliding off them trying to get shit on/ off the roof countless times...

 

Ive got a pair of those sitting around somewhere... buried in my storage unit... I pulled em when I put in my bed stiffeners

 

Is this supposed to entice people?? BWAHAHAHAHAH

 

Bay Area Metal Fab. Jerry did an awesome job with them, they were stout and very well built. Rob had BAMF sliders which got me interested, then they did a Black Friday sale and a bunch of us went in on group shipping so I was sold. We had a whole pallet of sliders shipped to a business location in Plainville so it saved us some $$. There are certainly lots of solid choices now, mobtown wasn't as well known 'round these parts when I bought mine.

 

I may be able to grab them. Ill pm or fb message you soon if I can or can't

 

I think I have the best answer of all:

Directions for purchasing automotive tints to mix with Tintable Monstaliner Many people have asked about color matching Tintable Monstaliner to match their vehicles paint. The following information will be helpful to get this done. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You must use concentrated tints (toners) ONLY from an automotive paint store. DO NOT use any previously purchased automotive paint used for a vehicle paint job. The MOST COMPATIBLE brand of tints we have found is “PPG Shopline Single Stage” toners. You want to purchase: “TONERS" ONLY, with no binder, reducers or balancers added for the color you want to tint the Monstaliner (your vehicle color code). Do not purchase anything used to tint water base or lacquer base products. Tell the paint store what you are doing. They may or may not have done this before for others. Tell them you are tinting 1 full gallon of a tintable bedliner. You should wind up with somewhere between 1 pint and 1 quart of concentrated tints. Be certain that the store shakes the mixture well before you leave with it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mix your tints with Tintable Monstaliner ONLY AT THE TIME OF USE. Follow the color mixing instructions supplied with Tintable Monstaliner but substitute your colors for our Monstashades. You add only 8 to 10 oz of what you have purchased to 1 gallon of Tintable Monstaliner + Catalyst mixture. Depending on what type of color it is, you may need more than 2 coats of Monstaliner to achieve full coverage. Pastels, earth tones and dark colors should cover well in 2 coats. Yellows, oranges and reds may cover poorly thus requiring additional coats. Metallics are questionable when applied by roller as the metallic flake does not orient uniformly. We have done only limited testing to be able to predict final results using metallics. Spray results with metallics will be far better than rolling so spraying is strongly recommended. As always, a test on a scrap surface is strongly advised to predict final results.
