    calling is the best way to get ahold of them. Email is fine but it takes a few days it seems.

    My experience at least

    Yup, such crap. I was blown away that the light and brake inspection was so much.

    Figured I’d offer it here first before putting these in the CL section.

    3/16” steel mid and transfer case skids.
    Relentless Fabrication.
    Custom boulder sculpting by @tacomgee.
    Could be bent back into shape. Not sure how easy that would be.
    T-case skid requires an exhaust re-route.
    Also has some hacked out section on the DS- possibly from a dual exhaust.
    Mid requires an IFS skid to work.
    T-case skid works independently.
    No hardware.

    Pickup in Benicia.

    $60 for both.

    yeah, ive got the academy in bakersfield, but its self sponsored so the cadets arent actually hired on with the department. about 3/4 of the way through they will start either hiring on those that want to work for Kern County Sheriff, or will start sending out applications. The cadre have worked with my dad in the department for the last 15+ years and told me if i apply with them i have a pretty good chance of being hired directly after graduation. but said if i wanted, they would help me out with some offers/putting in a good word for other departments. Im just securing some back up departments just incase

    this. One of my previous E5's is Oakland PD and it's never a dull moment. His wife however, is SF PD, and is a glorified 'homeless person relocater'
