GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

If you have another axle ready to go in, just swing by and we can knock it out.

I have the tools to reboot, but I have not done one yet.

 

@Gilmorec61 has a good powder coater but I can't remember the name

 

Packer Industries in Smyrna.

They are outfitted to powdercoat dump truck beds so our little bumpers and skids are a drop of water to them. Awesome quality and super awesome rates.

they charged $175 to blast and powdercoat a set of sliders

$120 to blast and powdercoat a skid trio

IIRC it was $105 to blast and powdercoat my HC rear bumper, I provided the powder for that one.

 

Im trying to take my dad camping and fishing this weekend. Bringing my dog too. Looking to be able to hike a bit/have space for my pup to run free. Wheeling doesnt have to be included, but it would be cool to have my truck for base camp.

Anyone have any good spots they can recommend?

 

Freaking love your rims bro

 

Anyone local that creates decals by any chance? It's not urgent, just wanna get some made and wanna support local rather than ordering em online.

 

What was your turnaround time?

I’ve got some inquiries in but they aren’t answering emails.

 

Shoot em a ring, that’s the best way to get ahold of them.

Generally a couple days.

When I was getting my sliders done, I was trying to get them on before a trip that weekend... dropped them off otw to work at 6AM, picked them up completed at 4PM. Maybe paid $20 more to expedite?

 

FYI - as Chris mentioned above, he bought powder and brought it to them. Not all powder is the same.

$20 to expedite?! Dang that’s cheap as hell!!

 

I just figured a black powder coat would be a black powder coat. I guess I'll be calling them after it shows up today.

Also still thinking about just painting it.

 

I took my stuff to Georgia Powder Coating in Gainesville. They said 3-5 day turnaround. I dropped off my stuff at noon and received an email at 5pm that it was ready. I haven't had time to pick it up before 5 but I'll get to it today.

 

Dang. Too bad Gainesville is an absolute haul for me.

 

Looks like I'm going to have to go with someone other than Packer. They aren't doing any powder coating at this time.

Which is fucking weird, but ok.

 

Not GA but pretty close. Any love for an Alabama Taco?

 

Of course my guy. AL native right here.

 

What you thinking? I've been thinking of doing some smallish size stuff to start on figuring out my wife's cricut machine. She does vinyl for like walls and art stuff. It's a relatively small footprint like 2ft x 1ft I think. I admittedly would need to research and source some decent auto/outside vinyl like what I got for my hoodscoop from TW guy.

 

Finding someone with a cricut was exactly what I was looking for lol. I just want some WallStreetBet logo's done for some friends and I

 

This is the kinda flex I want out of my taco. Just like my rc crawler. A four link setup?!
Getting my flex on this am!

 

Very nice Kings ya got there

 

Yeah buddy! Get some!
Enjoy this jam! Better than the original!
