    Glad we got you out. Only took what seemed forever. But let me know when you want to work on it Jim and we can get it done. What size were your Bilstiens? And I can try to look tonight and find you some.

    I cant thank you guys enough for all the help. Cant believe the run had to get cut so short because of me..

    I think I am going to be able to get it all fixed pretty cheap. Found a set of links in a part out for 20 bucks, driveshaft for like 50 + shipping, new shocks are going to be what costs me, but I am hoping maybe toytec will warranty them.. I dunno. A guy can dream.

    The bumper though.. me and him are going to have a little chat in the morning.. I just haven't quite figured how to phrase it..

    It oh boy start with "I love your product but........." And be sure to get Silas's pics or take your own for sire. And thanks isnt necessary we were not going to leave you there. Let me know what happened to the bumper we can always build you 1 too. Awesome that you already sourced the replacement parts.

    The conversation has already gone in like 500 different directions in my head, so we'll see what happens. I may post back here for advice if it takes a couple days of "negotiations"..

    We'll have to plan another run and I will just ride along with someone and be the official camera guy for everyone to make up for today, lol.

    There good. Didn't get any done on them today. I had to pass out after wheeling so that I could head to work tonight. But tomorrow will be a good day for them and if you would do me a favor and measure from the outside of the frame to the pinch weld and let me know what that measurement is and I should be able to figure out the distance to make them a bit of a step from not. Sorry I'm slacking buddy.

    Good morning to all! :)


    I cannot thank everyone enough for all the help & kind words while I've been healing from my accident. I knew this was a great bunch of people, so I'm not surprised, but I really appreciate all the good mojo. :cool:

    I want to start making stickers and bracelets that say "crawling is for babies". Since the vast majority of people in New Mexico are into long travel and pre running, these should become a smashing success. :D
    Long travel FTW! HAHA
