Calling all Virginians (Tidewater area)

1/8", or 11g. Decided to keep it thin since the tank will hold the truck up. Just need puncture proofing

I do have a 6" fabtech performance kit for sale cheap

 

Do eeeetttt Bridgeman

 

gonna make more?

 

I have enuf material for one more, pretty easy to make. Cost me $70 for a big sheet. Didnt even use the whole 6.5' length, pretty cheap imo.
I used the tank straps that were on the tank... the plastic has indents for bolts already. Drilled 4 wholes and welded on 4 bolts. Easy peazy.

Light enuf that I could hold it up with a hand + knee while I threaded the bolts on

 

Very Cool! The more the merrier! I'm bringing a buddy... he's a great photographer also!

Whoooo whoooo!!!!! You gotta be happy!

I can tell you that CB Toyota has buy 3 get 4. Last 2 times I bought new tires... they were THE LOWEST out the door!

Hmmmmm... not toughing that!!!!

Been there done that... except from a civy doc... and the Navy fixed it. Spent a whole week in Portsmouth being pumped with some antibiotic that was SO STRONG the IV site was changed every day!!! A specialist from Bethesda from some diease control division flew down to monitor it.

Post Op infection is unfortunatly pretty common... HOWEVER is dealt with very well most of the time. I FIRMLY believe you are in GREAT HANDS with Portsmouth. Best of luck to you!

We pay dearly for the military docs... many are very accomplished. They have not only thier Medical Oath... but Military Honor to deal with. There are quacks in every profession, every walk... but IMO, are some of the best, which is why they are so successful when they exit.


Today is my Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I would be interested

 

dudes in rishmen...

 

the military def. has one of the best medical schools... my dad was a military doc for 30 years, too. he went to UC tho

 

I can put together a 2nd one. You have bolts on your tank straps already? Only prob would be making those holes. Mines a custom bolt job

 

IDK...never really looked at it be4 Mines an off road so may be slightly different...

 

You got the bolts then

 

sweet! we need to link then

 

man date

 

Cool. I can build it minus those holes? Nuttin but some drill time

 

word to burgs mama

 

im gonna start cracking skulls. two days in a row, wtf! and it doesnt look bad but its wedged pretty good on there and it left a nice dent and scratch.

 

Ill shoot you a PM some point soon. Gotta find some free time

 

what word, joe... you bout to cross some fucking lines

 

parallel or just parking spots?

 

FEELER:
I am having a crazy thought.......
Considering going back to stock on my Tacoma. I may sell it and just keep one tacoma for now due to finances, so I guess I would get more for it all by getting aftermarket stuff off of it, and hopefully someone on the forum can enjoy it.

Anyone interested in my arb bumper (just repainted and includes CB and antenna), OME suspension (springs, struts, leafs, spacers, shims), wheels ([FONT=&quot]American Eagle Alloy 185's with COOPER DISCOVERER STT tires. (305/70/16)) , and possibly my gray/black full leather seats by Roadwire (with front heated seats)?

Ok, didn't realize i would get this much interest....before my PM box goes crazy, let me just throw some numbers out there that I think are fair. If i'm way off, feel free to chime in.
ARB Bumper and CB antenna: $550 + trade your stock silver bumper
Entire OME suspension (not parting separately): $500 + trade your stock TRD suspension
Wheels/Tires: $450 + Stock Wheels/tires trade
Leather Interior with heaters: $700 + trade for your sport bucket seats (this is a double cab! Considering the time it takes to install this kind of stuff, that's a great price firguring all we gotta do is unbolt and exhange seats. Will also trade center consol with heater switches installed and will include extra gray vinyl pieces for door inserts)





[/FONT] If you are 16 and don't have experience on suspension work on a 2nd Gen Taco, no need to be interested (sorry).
This would require me taking your stock equipment, therefore it requires us swapping parts on site.
Feel free to pm me with your ideas.
Again, this is just a feeler for now. I haven't posted anything on the FS thread yet because I am still undecided about any of this.
This is as bad as all this stuff can possibly look. that's why i took them like this.








rattle canned, not powdercoated. This setup fits on stock UCA's believe it or not (because of offset)




OME shocks. OME 886 springs (need these if you want arb bumper). Spacer up top too.


Dakar OME leafs. OME shocks. 3 degree shims.


Tread is not terrible. Awesome tires for sure!




These leather sets are the best mod you can do! seats are all perfect condition, only been on a few months. These are not TRD sport buckets as you can see. I put those in my base Tacoma when I reupholstered them in black leather (same kit, with heaters and all, SWEET!)

Can't believe i'm considering doing all this.
