Florida B.S. Thread

Pics will be up as soon as we get home. On the turnpike now.
Quite the new experience, I must say!
Stopped at a service plaza and park up on a curb for fun. And when backing up with the wheels turned, it rubs so ill have to trim some more. Also my turning radius is quite sharp and I'm impressed. But other than that, I think it looks pretty sick! Thanks guys for all your help!

 

no problem dude have a safe trip

 

Sweet Fink. I'm glad you are happy with it. Drive safely

 

More like ride safely...Christina wanted to drive.

Weird thing happened though... all of a sudden the engine downshifted and started speeding up on its own without applying any more gas. I guess it's not used to the new tires.

 

hey guys I'm going to be in Ocala for the thanksgiving weekend, anybody interested in a meet?

 

just finished unpacking all the tools..... it was great meeting everyone today! thanks for hosting Tim. can't wait to do it again. citrus meet is going to be great!

 

are there any places in central florida that can do the body mount chop and box it like they do from this forum?

any place that can weld. check out autobody or frame shops. it's more likely a local shop will be able to do something like that than the larger chains.

 

thanks alot man, i tried going to a few local shops but no one wants to do it bc its "too risky".... what the heck.... anyone have it done and can refer me to somoene? oh BTW sweet ass truck bro. love the set up. cant wait to see it in person at the citrus meet

 

Jason had it done at some bike shop up here in Jax if u make the drive they will do it for you. I think he said it was $150 for it to be done. He will probably chime in soon on it for you.

 

thanks alot ryan. thats quite a drive so I hope someone knows a place closer to Orlando. if it comes down to it then i might have to make a trip up there if Jason recommends them

 

Likewise!

i know you probaby get it all the time, but that's the best looking grill guard i've ever seen.

we're gonna have a lot of blue trucks at the citrus meet

wish i could help more with the welding shop, but i only know the places around me

Edit: try asking john, i think he's the closest to orlando out of all of us

 

lol thanks alot bro, i actually do get alot of compliments about it and i truely appreciate it. funny thing is that i got pretty heated bc some of the guys on here straight up bashed my truck for it and unfortunately recieved a few nasty PM about it as well. but yea i cant wait for citrus and hope i can get everything done before that time.

 

Uploading pictures....

Edit: It's 250mb of pictures so it's going to take a bit but here's the link to the album so you can view them while they upload.
