    Ah, yeah I hate waiting. I can usually find a ride though. I think our dealership even has a shuttle to take you back to work which is awesome.

    I'll probably have them do the timing belt, water pump, alignment after I let my coils settle after I put my bumper on, and have them do something to the transmission. It's been shifting rougher out of first gear lately.... :/

    Haha I never have a normal weekend off though...
    Yeah, one of the reasons I think I'm going to move in with a friend. Then I'll have a garage that I can just leave the truck in and work on it for 3 straight days instead of being limited by what the auto hobby shop allows.
    Yup. If I can get somebody's stock bumper and mounts for trade as well. Otherwise I won't sell it until I get an Elite.
    You're actually 3rd right now haha
    So you're not stranded haha
    Another guy is REALLY interested haha He wants to ship his stock bumper and mounts to me at the same time that I ship the bumper. Would be interesting...

    :confused:

    You're not third, your first in line! Bennet's in 3rd...

    I don't have that luxury. Would suck if it broke while making a 12 hour drive or something...

    I never understood the mindset of "wait until it breaks." I get the same argument regarding batteries. No matter how good a warranty, I did not think Sears delivered to BFE.

    I'm the same way. I can't think of any part on my vehicle that I'd rather wait until it breaks.

    If the belts could break without possibly breaking other ones, then the power steering belt would be the only thing I'd be okay with if it snapped.

    Nope, your 1st bud haha

    And you'd be the easiest to sell to since I could probably meet you halfway or at your house if you decide to buy it between April 13 and April 21.

    I will never be buying from All Pro again.

    Just to give the full story for those that do not know...

    I ordered an All Pro Pack Rack bed rack on February 17th during their 15% off President's Day sale.

    Called on March 7th for and update, they said it would ship out first thing the following week.

    Called again on March 17th to see what the issue was. They said they would have to call me back in a few minutes after they figured out the info on it. they never called me back.

    Called on March 24th and was told it would ship and I would get an invoice with tracking in a couple days.

    Called today, on March 28th and found out that it hasn't even been built and won't get started on until Monday, March 31st.

    To say the least I'm very unsatisfied, will never buy from them again, and will advise anybody to never order from them.

    You need to know how to do all of this buddy, they are all easy enough and the CVs,TREs, even the LBj could break on the trail and having the knowledge and tools to make a swap would be ideal. Installed yourself eqauls more money for mods! Hope you are doing well, i'm sending this from Qatar on my way to Al Dhafra. Good times. :rolleyes:


    edit; Sounds like the service that has earned AP one of the shittiest name's in the Toyota community. Don't let them take you for a ride dude, I'd call their asses and tell them they need to make it right or fucking cancel your order. I'm not one to jump on the "free shit or extra discounts" bandwagon but they took your money A MONTH AND A HALF AGO. And was told it would ship in a day or two, not like you agreed to a six month wait time for a Shrockworks bumper. Good luck man, sometimes you need to flex a little muscle as the consumer.

    My 2 cents anyway.

    I personally would call and cancel my order and demand a full refund from All Pro. That's a bunch of bull on their end. Not even built yet and and you were told on the 24th it was going to ship? SMH

    Rock lights, hood lights, toolbox lights, and bed lights ;)
    Only ones that make what I want unfortunately. No local fab guys...
    Yup...
    Yeah, going to call the end of Monday, ask to speak to Stacy and see what we can do on cost.... I'll tell them that I needed it by the beginning of April for my RTT, so I ordered the bed rack first. Not sure what to ask for though...
