DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

That sucks...How did it happen?

 

No clue when the front damage happened. Tailgate I backed into a tree I couldn't see.

With some help from the great TW community tailgate works again and front damage is minimal.
Thanks to all who assisted @trekker @hoarder23 @Overkill07 @fajitas21

 

FIFY



It happens, just gotta know what we'll do differently next time is all. If anything we should be thankful that everyone drove out on their own power without serious injury. Glad we can still wheel out here!

 

@SuperBad let me know if you need help on the tailgate. I know a guy.

 

Will do. I'll likely just find the cheapest replacement I can. Doesn't need to be perfect since the rear bumper swing out will end up hiding it. Once I get the bumper at least.

 

You could probably get away with a new shell and top cover, transfer the rest of the stuff over.

 

Maybe I'm not really sure how it all goes together. We beat on it to take a bunch of the bend out to get the handle working. I'm just glad it opens and closes again. I have a new steel top cover sitting at the house already so wont need that.

@SuperBad found this on the Offer Up site

 

Anyone in the Fort Worth area or close to it willing to help a guy out and assist in replacing a flexplate? I live in an apartment complex and I don't have a transmission jack. I can supply beer! Or can anyone recommend a good shop that won't take my limbs for labor?

 

Was there a decision made about a regular meet this month since not everybody could make it to Jambo? Would be cool to hear about Jambo and the shenanigans that went down.

 

DOWN.

 

I'm down...

 

Saw this fool at bucees, decal on door that says Lift Kit

 

That’s the equivalent of whipping it out on the first date

 

Maybe his next one will say Light Bar

 

Don’t be silly, he’s saving that for marriage

 

She'll find out eventually

 

Did you get your bumper on yet?

 

Long story. Mounting plate wont fit over frame. Ended up taking it to Dallas Offroad and they couldn't get on without damage to frame. Contacted low range offroad who i bought it thru, gave me a direct contact at Trail Gear. Had to send pics...waiting on response. So annoyed
