    @ovrlndkull

    Not far from where I used to live in VA, there is a company just outside of Floyd that makes and sells them. I believe they rent them too, but I’m not certain. Anyways, IIRC, the company’s name is Blue Ridge Yurts. They look cool af and are surprisingly big inside.

    In other news, got the one rear shock straightened out (correct one shipped yesterday, score!) and now I’m just waiting to hear back about the missing leaf.

    Who did you order your stuff through? Glad you got the shock straightened out.

    Yeah there are several places in NC that rent them out as well.

    Battle Born Off-road, took advantage of the Black Friday deals. They’ve been very accommodating. Quick with repsonses/communications (even when the part manufacturers were behind on production, etc.), prompt with addressing my situation and have a customer focused approach/mentality (all around friendly in general). Of course I’m speaking from my experience, so I can’t speak for others. Even though I’ve experienced a hiccup, I’d certainly do business with them again.

    I believe the only things left to get are extended brake lines, either HD shackles or rebuild the OEM ones. Hangers, spindle gussets, cam tab gussets and maybe do a complete rebuild of the LCA's but I'm still on the fence about these. Do my CMC, a little bit of metallurgy massage therapy (as needed) and tires. Do all of that and see where we stand from there.

    You're still planning on going the 63 route, correct?

    If I remember that is one company that was a vendor here and screwed over several people and lost vendor status. Might be worth a search on here to see what comes up. Just to prepare yourself for what may be to come.

    Hmm, interesting and thanks for the heads up. I briefly looked over the vendor list and they don't appear to be listed. Could be that they are trying to achieve status or regain status, who knows. Either way I'll dive deeper into what you mentioned and see what comes up. No major issues other than what I've already mentioned and the initiative to remedy them on their part has been quick and professional thus far. Fingers crossed for calm seas.

    My wet okoles are off the truck and up for sale. They are less than a year old and have seen little use as I only drive the truck a few times a months. Black/grey half pipe with all the pocket options(Gun/map/sunglass). I also paid extra for the TRD logo. These are for a 2nd gen tacoma Off road. I believe sport seat are different. The price is $200 they are around $350 new. These are front covers only.



    Sold locally
