I’ll leave if he posts a nasty picture

 

With how far oil prices have fallen will soon see oil field workers start complaining they're broke again. Granted they all don't get let go, but still.

 

Well, that’s one blank filled in.

Thank you.

 

What oil prices went up?

 

That’s nothing

 

Oil is about $54 a barrel right now in the last month it's fallen over $22

 

Hmmm, I guess when you move away from an oilfield town people don’t really talk about it haha.

 

If it stays this low people will be stacking shit in the weeds soon.

 

We were just starting to get rigs down here again too

Last I heard anyway

 

@Itchyfeet

I’m trying to understand the issue with your limited seats, because I’m looking for a set myself. Is the issue with 2001-2004 trucks the center console blocking the adjustment knob? I have a ‘98 but I have the 2001-2004 center console. I remember reading about one of the rubber isolators being a different height too.

 

Skid row skids $650 full set shipped right now - anyone run them?

 

So the back outboard track has a rubber isolator with a 1/4 to 1/2 inch shank stinking out the bottom. I could grind the shank off and they'll likely fit fine in that aspect. The rest of the isolator would have to be left on. Then there's the issue with the upper lumbar knob. It's supposed to be a lever, but another lower lumbar knob fits just fine. The lever from Toyota is stupid expensive about $29. The knob in it's current configuration just barely touches the center console, likely not a deal breaker for a lot of people. I'm sure if I ground that shank off the clearance would improve, because the seat would be more level. There's also the issue of buying the earlier trim pieces that cover the back track bolt. They're about $9.00 a piece from Toyota. All the bolt holes line up fine, Toyota for what ever reason eliminated the isolator in 01-04 and just made the leg longer to compensate.

In the big scheme of the things, i'm too picky. If I had known about these issues I would have never done any of this. I also decided to sell my truck and buy a 3rd gen.

You should just buy mine LOL

 

What you are asking is totally reasonable. It would just be a pain to ship it.

It’ll fit fine on 1995-2000 trucks is what I’m understanding?

 

They should fit fine in early 1995.5 to 2000 trucks that have the isolator bushing. If someone gave me $800 at this point I'd likely ship them for free. I have a lot more than that in them.

 

They are very nice. I wouldn’t be surprised if you had trouble selling them considering the upholstery you have in them.

Try OfferUp/Craigslist. I’ll never recommend the Facebook Marketplace after I tried to sell my old welder. That’s a story for another day.

 

One of those moments where I wish i was back in CA. I don't think they'll sell here so in my closet they sit. I do have them listed locally.

 

@Ice Horse

 

If it weren’t for the adjustment interfering with the console I’d jump all over those seats

 

I am retardedly confused trying to order parts.

Spicer center/or carrier bearing are all the same for our trucks no?

How many universal joints should I buy and by who? Someone suggested drivetrain america but trying to order this stuff tonight.

Anything else I should change down there?

 

Only 11:24 (11/21/18) in hawaii!
