Located in SF. Any recommendations on a shop for a cab mount chop? 2nd gen.

Thanks!

 

Not SF proper but Milogen Fabrications in SJ is good. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/milogen-fabrications.490657/page-8

 

This looks interesting. Might work in a pinch, for just a short recovery.

 

That is a great idea.

 

Larry!!! Where the hell have you been man?

 

Been trying to herd cats at work. I haven't been wheeling since Bald Mtn. Though for good reason. I have sliders on order and am working on planning a slight lift. I haven't been to Sac in awhile to play disc golf. Next time I'm up that way, I'll bug you.
I was thinking about how cool that trip was, definitely want to hang out again soon.

 

A $8 ratcheting strap from “pick your DIY/Tool store” will do exactly the same.

I’ve had some Harbor Frieght ratcheting loaf straps for about a decade that I keep in the big out box just for this occasion.

 

Glad to hear. You've got a solid group of dudes in your area that I'm sure would be willing to help you out. Hell, I may even try to come down when you're ready. yeah, that was an awesome trip! I need to get back on the course too. Let me know.

 

Did I hear mention of a lift???

Did you see what happened when @Papadave418 started talking about his lift? We had him talked in to lifting his truck by the end of the week.

My garage is open... I have the tools... Let's do this!

 

Off topic: I can’t remember for the life of me, but does anyone recall the member that added the headlight hoops to his pelfreybilt bumper? He already had the center hoop like myself and then added the headlight hoops to it. Thinking of doing the same possibly.

Maybe for anyone with knowledge in this realm, but how hard would it be to find some tubing to source myself? Since it’s an aluminum bumper, did Pelfrey use steel tubing on all of there bumpers? #knownothingaboutwelding

Thanks brosephs

 

We lifting another truck? Let's do it!

 

@Mademan925 did it to his relentless bumper, not sure who did it for their pelfrey tho

 

Ever tried using a ratchet strap in the freezing cold? Then if it’s mud that ratchet will be even more of a bitch. And then rust in no time. And then there’s the hooks on the ends. Sure, 8 bucks. And then another 8 bucks. And then....

 

Y'all are fucking funny. I am hoping to do the lift and sliders at the same time. @Uphillshunter, thanks for the offer. I don't have a garage nor the tools to knock this one out.

 

Which lift and sliders did you go with?

 

I ordered BAMF sliders on Black Friday. I've been patiently waiting and doing some light research on lifts. I think I'm going to contact Headstrong and see what I can do. I need to define my budget too.
The 209 Tacos are good peeps. I know I'm in great hands.

 

If he installed the lift then 100% his fault. I saw nothing saying he installed it. Nor did he say anything about a lift. But diff spacers implied there was work done. By whom. I dont know. So my first thought was loose bolts, and yes loose bolts can easily be the cause of this. Jberry taught us this not long ago.
