    Damn it @BigHam !
    Come up to Wisconsin next weekend for Beadlockers open house!

    You can stock up on Spotted Cow.



    I’m not sure I can make it to
    Chi-Town 4x4 open house. My Stepson and his wife had a baby that day. It’s the kids 2nd birthday! I think my wife would get pissed if I miss my granddaughters birthday but I’m not saying “NO” right now!

    Does anyone know how hard it would be to retrofit rocks sliders that came stock from a 2021 4dr Jeep Rubicon onto a DCLB tacoma?

    I’m guessing a lot more work than just buying something designed for a tacoma

    So. Many. Stickers.
    Cut all of your vertical and horizontal plates and then re-weld them and redrill in accordance with Tacoma frames. Or swap somebody who's got a Tacoma sliders. Or sell them and buy Tacoma sliders.

    @BookieBob I was planning on coming up for the open house but my brother finally has a weekend off to go camping so I'm taking him out.

    If you win something at Beadlockers I'm convinced that you sacrifice small animals in your backyard for these contests. No judgement for it, only jealousy.

    Hopefully I can somehow make the chi-town open house later. If I don’t I’ll knock down a few Spotted Cows in your honor!

    Has anyone done the K0D frame check/coating at Racine Toyota? I need to start looking into a time to schedule this but never serviced my truck there, only bought parts. Curious if they are competent or if I should go somewhere else. TIA for any info!

    I used their service department for all my free services on my 2015 & my 2017. All my warranty work was done by Racine Toyota also. I’ll be bringing my 2021 there for my 2yrs/25,000 free maintenance. I just got my notice a few weeks ago to make a appointment to do the sealant for my 2017 frame.

    I've had my Toyota care factory service done there. No issues other than the usual dealer upsell of services outside of what Toyota recommends.

    Looks like the K0D is a limited service campaign (regional recall) to check for rust perforation and apply some kind of spray on compound.

    When I bought my truck there it already had a fluid film/krown type of product sprayed inside the doors and body panels that I believe they subbed out.

    Awesome thanks @BookieBob and @Camerasandcoffee , look like I'll give them a call & see when I can schedule this. Appreciate the feedback because you never know how good a service department is for this type of thing.

    I did the black-dyed Woolwax this past year and was super impressed. My garage is too short to do it inside but my driveway works and I've got a 60gal compressor, let me know and we can make it happen. I've got the Woolwax spray gun and wands already, you'd only have to supply the goopy stuff.
