SocalTacomas-San Diego-MOD Day#1- 3/31/12

My methods are pretty close too. Offroad they might become a problem.

 

You got some pics David.. those pics nearly cost me a toe you bastard.. I dropped my stock bumper on it putting it back on my truck!!

 

Everyone is getting these wheels now

 

See that concerns me.. Im building this to go offroad.. your wheels and i think tire size are the same and damn those calipers are close..

 

Well they are nice wheels.. it came down to those or the 17x9 addicts.. for me, it was the cost of the tires.. 16" tires are consistently cheaper than 17" ones..

 

oh noes! hopefully it doesn't hurt too bad

 

Nothing a little Advil and ice couldn't fix..

bastard.

 

Just wanted to add to this. I called and spoke to Socal Mini Trucks to get an idea on what they are paying. The front alum crash support bar alone is right at $50, Bedsides and front fenders in really good condition are $100 to $150 each, LCA's for $75 each, Spindles for $50 each. If you trimmed the fenders in anyway they do not want them.

 

Thank you.

 

I am so stoked Engage will be there!!

 

And to think i almost threw the front alum crash support bar in the trash

 

Yeah I got mine sitting in the shed with my stock bumper. Holding on to them for a while until I see if I can get a lifetime alignment with my truck looking like it is though.

 

Just remember Matt the prices she gave you were of you yourself were to take it all in to her. Hassim has a great repore with them so they pay him morrre for the items which in return you make more.

 

Please. To all making comments regarding what will be paid to you for your old parts. Please keep your comments to yourself. As this is MY MOD DAY and if ya don't like what is being offered keep it to yourself. They will be paying what they pay. If ya don't want to offer your parts to them that's your choice, just keep your negative comments outta my thread. And like I said. The prices quoted to you or I will be way different then the prices given to engages as Cal Minis is one of there major sponsors. That being said. Lets get back to what we going to be doing at Mod Day. Thank you

 

Ok, I didn't talk to a girl. I taked to a guy who knew about this event also and also knew Hassim.....and those are the prices he told me would be similar to the event pricing. I will be bringing my crush bumper and LCA's to sell off but the fenders/bedsides are worth more to sell on their own. I was surprised about the crush bumper as that was a few hundred off from what you said at Tundrastop.

I don't see anything negative above regarding this, what ya talking about Wilis?

 

You still live in San Clemente? Thinking about wheels myself and would like to check your out before I buy something. I'm down by trestles outlet. Let me know if you have a few min one afternoon.
Thanks

 

I did! Last week. Who wants $50 anyway?

 

Dam. $50 bucks down the drain.

 

Yep, my food/beverage contribution to mod day is back on bank of America. Any chance someone could help me with a cab mount chop?

 

There should be more than enough guys there able to do the cab mount chop. Reckless did some VERY smooth ones (I forgot whos truck...) but they came out looking GREAT. The owner simply needed to get them plated if he wanted to. lol I still have yet to plate mine. I don't know if there will be extra plating available but I know a few of the guys there will have some of welding skills.
