    That engine bay is packed! How much clearance do you have when the hood is down?
    Thats an interesting exhaust reroute. Looks pretty cool. Are you worried about the surrounding area getting that black soot and staining it? I guess a regular washing would keep that at a minimum though.

    Hey Dave, in your suspension setup, do you have the 2" Wheelers AAL? Also, what did you set your billies to? I am going to order soon, but I want to do a parts check.

    I got a 2" skyjacker AAL off Amazon I believe. I have mine set at 2.5. I think it rides just fine although some think it's too stiff.

    Yeah we rode around the lot at dogfish and it seemed fine. Did you have the rear 5100's in there too?

    Leonard of manassas - Fukc these jokers.

    Finally was able to afford the Leer replacement glass for my truck after nickle and diming for a long time. MONTHS ago they told me ~550 almost 600+ after all the BS fees they were adding in, shipping and such.

    Recently I called, spoke to a guy, he quotes me "289.xx plus tax - Tax brings it to $306.39" - "I just need a deposit of HALF and it will be here next week." - I pay in full using my card, and later that night I go to balance the books and see I was charged $360.39! - $54 difference. - I figured in punching it in since it was a manual transaction, he inverted the 0 and 6. Call back to correct it. The guy will not get on the phone. Told I will get a call back later. 2 hrs pass. Nothing. Call back. Still busy. He knows you called, you will get a call back.

    3rd call, a guy says, "you got that for LESS THAN we normally charge people. SO if I were you I would be happy. I spoke to the manager and he said we should just reverse the whole transaction and be done with you. "

    I asked to speak to the guy again, told I will get a call from him. "What do you want us to do?" - me - Honor the price I was quoted on the phone, and refund the $54 to my card, please" - them - "Thats not going to happen, want to hold longer for MATT?" - me ''YES, I'll hold"

    8min later, "You still there?" He is still with another customer, he will call you..." Click...

    Noon - 4 and 6 are the call times.

    You know, we could all get on there and give them a terrible review. Ha! Google Review

    That sucks though, companies piss me off sometimes and it seems like there is nothing you can do except BBB them or pass around bad reviews.

    I don't want to make to many waves until I get my glass. Having them cancel my order would put me back farther AGAIN. Once I have my glass, Then I will attempt to get my $54 back again.

    How many people would be interested in splitting the neoprene armrests deal 4 ways? I'd rather do it local then post for all of tacoma world and worry about shipping. If someone else wants to go in on it, I can contact Wet Okole and find out what they would sell.

    Wet Okole neoprene arm rests:

    Skygear: It took Leonard's 3 months to agree to take my Rugged Cover back through warranty. I had to harass Rugged Cover and ultimately had to deal with the regional Leonard rep in order to get stuff done.

    I wasnt even having them install it, just literally hand them the old cover and throw the new cover in the back of my truck.

    Cant you call Truckin' America? They have got to be able to match the price. I wouldnt trust the guys in Manassas to do anything. Think of the headache if they dont install it right, or damage something else
