Northern Virginia Roll Call

Not a problem, glad I could help out.

 

No they do not. Mine are drilled through the bottom of the plano and held in with nuts and bolts. And silicone to keep it water tight.
I've seen other options out there, but this was just easiest for me

 

Please post pics of the washernut monstrosity you have in there

 

That's a lot of work.

 

Did not know until recently that Rtic makes hard rifle cases. They are on sale at the moment if anyone needs some.

Had a guy ask me if I was in Vietnam.

How fucking old do you think I am? I mean, I was issued OG107's but that was in the 80's thank you very much.

 

2017 WRX.

As @twheat40 mentioned, most drill the bottom of the case and bolt them to the rack with carriage bolts in the extruded rails.

Good luck.

Let me know when you're ready to fix it. I did the drain/ flush and thermostat on mine back in early 2017.

 

Holler if you run into trouble. I’m close.

 

Has anyone with a pop n lock done the sound deadening around the actuator? I may do that as a weekend project. Was wondering if you had material suggestions?

 

I’m alive don’t worry I miss you guys too. I’ve been busy with family and friends over winter break and school is picking back up and this semester is a beast of its own.

Lol I made it through the snow just fine. Fish tailed a coulple times but that was for fun. And yeah I was able to hit the range with my good buddies and my friend Kyle just got a new camera. Well his dads old camera so he was taking a bunch of pictures with it. Also Kyle was two seconds away from buying a 2019 TRD OR but because his dumb ass never did anything to build credit he couldn’t get a loan without a co-signer and he had no one to co-sign for him. Maybe next year he will finally get his dream taco.

 

You're alive!!!!

 

I had to text him this morning to make sure haha

 

Yeah hahaha I live

 

I thought you might have sold your Tacoma and bought a Nissan or something, but were too ashamed to tell us.

Haha damn! hes back! So negative on joining a militia?

 

Death is a preferable alternative my friend hahaha

I can neither confirm nor deny

 

Sound deadening for the tailgate??

 

Yes, the lock is incredibly loud!

 

I used the Noico stuff (on the inside of my truck) and it's great: https://amzn.to/2W4fEws It should work well with the tailgate but would be a pain to install when it's cold outside since the material gets stiff. If you combine that with some kind of foam sheeting that should really knock the sound down.

 

Morning all
