Alabama thread!

Man, I'm jonesin' to hit some trails again! I need a damn door! I would drive it with the dent in the door, but it won't open!

 

Just hammer it out! That what I did to mine haha

 

Front bumper is almost done and he’s starting rear today. Hopefully be done by next week he said.

 

I can't hammer mine out, due to the way the door is constructed. Unless I'm missing something here.




The dented part is behind that panel that the plastic is attached to.

 

Dude, I found a brand new fender for free, but it's located in NC, and it's red. I don't care about the color, I'm gonna get a buddy to repaint my whole truck once I get it all back together again.

 

That would be sweet!

 

Show me the front?

 

The only reason it opens now is, I shove a screwdriver between fender and door and pry it open, plus my whole front fender is unbolted from the body.

 

Does it catch on the bottom or the hinge area when opening and closing?

 

I used my rock sliders to get leverage with a crow bar and pulled the fender back into place.

 

The back of the fender is flared out and the front of the door is flared out as well. I can open my door about 6" and those 2 flared parts crush into each other. I'm just gonna have to be patient and wait for a junk yard part out Tacoma to show up with a usable door.

 

In the mean time I would take that whole quarter panel off and flatten it back out from the inside and put it back on there!

 

Idk what a “bunny ride” is but that sounds about my speed lol

 

Bunny trails are basically dirt roads and gravel trails, nothing that really requires 4wd! lol

 

Well I can do a little more than that, but I’m not into flipping my truck and what not haha

 

Flipping the truck was my fault for not getting out and walking the trail first!

 

Really, we do some mild riding, just ask @Brian422 and @JKU3000. It was just a series of unfortunate events that led to what happened that day!

 

Yea that is true. I road down that same part we’re he flipped and barely had my wheels off the ground. Just needed a spotter that’s all. Most trails like that we don’t go on anyways with people who aren’t comfortable! We usually stick to easy stuff.

 

Awesome man!

 

Trying to keep up with the chatter here. I never realized how much time I spent staying ahead of this thread. I miss wheeling and wrenching on trucks!
