South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I'll send you a PM a little later and we'll get something going.

Same one shackle. U-boat flip kit has been ordered and will get fixed when that gets installed.

 

Love my Baja rims too much to part with them tho

 

Oh yea, those suckers were due!

 

I know yall know not to use chains during recovery.

But not everyone knows, I hope the guys in my community take a lesson from this tragedy. A local young man was killed while recovering equipment on a tractor when the chain broke and hit him in the head.

 

That is Terrible, i hate seeing dumbasses carrying a chain on their bumper for recovery. Or the straps with the hooks attached. Smh

 

What's the full situation? A farm tractor was being recovered or doing the recovery? Chains can be fine for low impact recovery. These rednecks hitting the Rev limiters for a snatch recovery, not so much. Safety is always key! Get the kids far the fuck outta the situation before you start.

 

Ya know I wish I knew as well. My take on it is that he was the one driving the tractor doing the recovering and only a couple of people will know exactly what was happening when the chain broke. It is kind of a touchy subject around my community so I am not going to ask. My curious mind really wants more details but I don't think I'll ever get them.

I take it as a tragic reminder to always be safe and to always use the proper equipment for the task at hand.

I said boy, but he was really early 20's. I should correct that.

 

Yeah, I'll be greasing my u joints from now on, lol. Had a prerunner in the past so no zerks.

 

Anybody want a 2007 DCSB SR5 with 211k on the dash? My company is selling one. You just have to come in and put in a bid on it. Blind auction type deal. Have to be in by the 23rd at noon. PM for details if you're interested.

 

@scottalot

Haven't been on TW much lately...just poking in to say hi!

 

Anyone have a driver side led taillight for a 2011 Tacoma they want to get rid of? It doesn’t matter if the lense is broke I just need the inside because my brake light doesn’t work on mine anymore. I’ll gladly pay for shipping and everything. Thanks

 

TGIF!


Has anyone been keeping track of the new Ford Bronco? I saw an article the other day that saw a test mule for it sporting a solid front axle.

I had to run to Greenwood for work.
WOW, there are a lot of Tacos in that area. I was in a line of solid Tacos- 6 in front, 2 behind me. Ballentine must do a lot of business there.

Anyways, I talked to 2 owners about here. Wade (Lives in Spartanburg, working in Coronaca/96 area) has a nice, tricked out 3rd gen- 4x4.

 

I work near Coronaca. There are a couple of other trucks I see from time to time that are modded. One guy has a RTT, another guy is running an ARB front bumper. Another guy has rock sliders, but I very rarely see him around. Most of the other mods are bigger tires and maybe grill swaps and light bars and stuff. There's a young guy that works in Coronaca at the Subway there that I have been prodding to get some armor and stuff from @SOS CONCEPTS .

 

I don't think any of the 6-7 people that I've talked to just this year about this site have ever signed up.

They all seemed really interested in joining at the time but never showed.

 

What you talking bout, Willis?

 

@EricL ??

 

Oh, shoot, I missed this. I think @Sandman614 still has the patched and working one. @Hard Luck GraphiX

 

I checked when I saw the post. I have the Passenger side.

 

Hmm, I have to do some searching to see what I have left.
