Ontario BS Thread

$570 US picked up at the border years ago, then another $350 CAD or so in stainless fasteners, spray paint, Fluid Film, drill bits, Dremel bits, wire wheel... CBI bare metal HREW with kickouts.

 

Haven't been with them but ended up on Minden hydro at same time.
They move pretty slow but they are good for new guys.
They tend to be more Jeep than anything though

850 roughly when our dollar was doing better

Waste of money. The powder coating will cost at least $150 if not more depending on quality.

And even though it's tough if you're using the sliders it doesn't hold up. Better to just rattle can or bed liner. For easy touch ups

And side steps could actually cause more damage off road than without. Besides robbing clearance.

If you don't have the money now but want sliders may as well wait till you have enough. Otherwise you're x amount further from having the money.

 

keep a eye out for my truck someone stole it last night fuckers

 

What parts of Toronto are you located in?
I'll keep an eye out here in Hamilton

 

No way are you kidding me !!!

 

Sorry to hear that Pete
If they leave it as you had it somebody will eventually see it for sure .

 

I'm in etobicoke finch and islington

 

Want the truck to be shared on social media?

 

yes please

 

It'll cost like $300 cause I want to have the brackets adjusted. They sit to high and too close into the vehicle they are basically useless. I don't love the sliders but thought they could be a option if they were a good price but i think ill go this rout and save some bucks. Just dropped some dough on a Borla

 

Fuck dude!

 

i wouldn't go running boards. just save a little more cash for sliders which will be cheaper in the long run since you wont need to pay twice. ($300 runners + $1000 sliders > just $1000 sliders)


i'm planning on building my own sliders and have the CAD files that i edited, that is if you're interested in trying to build a set yourself.
Just trying to figure out why i can't print the template 1:1 anymore, the scale keeps being wonky...

Sorry to hear that. I will keep a lookout for it in my area. Hopefully your insurance company will look after you.

 

Ah man, been there with my 4Runner, never got recovered

Those toyota push button systems are so easy to crack nowadays. I really hope they find it.

 

on another note, I suggest all auto guys get this and install on your break pedal. That way it will be impossible to drive it away, or at least the truck will be found in the ditch few miles away.

and start researching killswitch modes....

 

Faaack! Best of luck with insurance.

Getting a Lojack for my truck...

 

I like that

I am constantly paranoid at mine being taken, I wont ever leave it parked over night in Toronto or Montreal. I heard there are a couple kill switch right ups.

yeah, it’s an extra measure and usually hard to notice until you need that break pedal in a corner and it doesn’t break as expected

and it’s a pain to cut it off in that location

 

These are not a visual deterrent, you cant see them until after you break in and vandalize the truck.
