Haha. Mike, if I didn't know those were car parts when I saw you, I would a thought you were one of those homeless guys living by the river by HCC.

 

How come your LCA skids looks different?

 

well I just got a tent and a sleeping bag the other week...just in case

they're different from yours? I think the BAMF lettering is a different type.

 

The letters are cut out on mine

 

hmm maybe mine were recently built?

 

You going to put all that on before Sunday.

 

try to, only have 1 slider though..

had a bit of trouble mounting the diff skid, so i'll have to take part of it to work and 'mod' it..took a gamble on having it coated prior to test-fit so i'll just have to paint a section normally.

 

Ive been trying to get a shipping quote for the BAMF Diff Skid, how much did you pay?

 

it was part of the pallet...so its hard to say.

 

Just need to order sliders and rear diff skid from BAMF and rear bumper from pelfreybilt then I will be finally done with armor. Just need to wait for the next big sale.

 

split shipping again for the bumper? hehe

 

Maybe want to see Iven's bumper first.

 

I know it was expensive. Less than a fiberglass cover though. And it is WAY stronger. I think it was $800 or $900 for the double cab short bed? The soft covers start around $200-$250 online but they don't really give you any security since you can cut them with a key. Only security they give is to keep someone from seeing whats in the bed until they cut it open.. And you would need a locking tailgate with a soft cover.

Very awesome!

 

Me too!

 

mod day on Saturday! Do it!

 

Mod day? Where?

 

I might be roofing on Sat

and there's still some more coming

 

Howzit, I got the fold-a-cover g4 elite. it's also pretty pricey, but I can attest that it keeps my cargo very dry and secure. It's a pain in the ass to install, but I think you can order it through 4wp and have them install it for cheap. I ordered and did mines myself and install took about 3 hours. I feel totally safe leaving anything in my bed when that cover is locked, so solid. It also varies from the bakflip in a sense that you can open up the bakflip to reveal the entire bed, but it's gonna lean against your cab and block your window, this one opens up 75% and lays flat, you can barely see it out your rearview. It also has a cool feature where you can open it from the cab end, or the tailgate end for access.

One downside, is that it sits on top of the bed so the use of things like Thule/tracrac bed rack systems aren't gonna work in conjunction.

My only word of advice if you purchase this is to also purchase a pop-n-lock tailgate lock so you can lock the two independently, otherwise, the way the cover is built...you can't open the tailgate without opening the cover first.

 

Howzit guys, been looking for those pipe racks for my bed. It's a single bar and comes out vertical of the bed, the bends backward like 30 degrees. anyone know who makes em and where I could find one locally?

Shoots

 

Looks sweet bredren. I wanted to to a bed light mod as well. You replace one of the blanks in the cab for the switch? You do all the work yourself? wiring, drilling, etc.? Personally I'm a bit nervous about doing it all solo.
