Keystone State Thread

I've got a spare set of these, just the shell though no electronics. Yours for shipping.

 

Hey, you can email Ricky for photos of any of the parts he is selling. His email is: bmxtaz_1@yahoo.com Or, text him: 703-675-6797 Currently this week he is working at Arlington VA, next week maybe towards Philly or State College not sure yet. But any info you want or need, ask him. I was helping him get rid of some parts so he can get his truck back in the garage.

 

The 01-04 lower valance lights, are they the turn signals from the front lower? Are they the Toyota ones in good shape? Let me know

I think they were from my 04 dubcab. Not sure sent him text. Hopefully he will post a pic or reply.
At one time he traded for my lower valance for his 96?.. Not sure what he did with it, could be same.

 

Wud up glassdoc from Spring City, seen you around town a few times, nice truck.

 

Thank you sir.. Still has a little shine to it. I lost count after 14 Tacomas today between Lancaster and Quarrysville on 472? At one point seemed like every other truck was a Taco..

 

Spotted?

 

That's not far from me, where is spring city? If you're not far from quarryville we should go wheelin sometime.

 

I'm probably hour 40 from York.. Its 40-45 minutes to Lancaster, 90 to Harrisburg. But to answer the question, Spring City is on the northern border of Chester County / Montgomery County. Haven't been wheeling in years, since the Keystone Krawlers kind of dissolved..

I was on 472 trying to get from Wilmington to Lancaster to New Holland.. Being a mobile windshield repair means a lot of drive time some days.

 

Alright I know round abouts where you're at. There are plenty of taco owners around here but not tacoma crazies ha

 

I'm south of york anyways more around brogue south of red lion.

 

Mobile windshield repair! Your own business?

 

Yeah, its mine for the last 18 years. Have a couple fleet accounts that I have to cater too when they call. Seldom is one of their trucks local to the area when it gets a stone shot.

 

Yeah, I remember when TW started. I've been on CT since late 03. Never posted much on TW mainly due to it being more 05 and up stuff more than the older models. Looks like over the years it has balanced out a bit. Of course, 10 years later. Not a lot of mods I need to do.. LOL

 

My brother has a stone chip in his windshield it's not too hateful but it bothers the hell out of him. Would that typically just repaired by that clear silicone stuff? Is it noticeable when its repaired? Is that something I can pick up from any auto parts store with any quality?

 

I haven't posted too much not enough time. I used to be on yotatech when I I had all my 80's toys.

 

Well a pic of the stone shot would answer many of the questions. A bullseye (round shot usually with a partially black bottom) would fill ok with a DIY kit if you follow the directions. However, a star or a combo (bullseye with legs) would not fill as it would need to be drilled to let the resin fill each leg. Those type kits, are from manufacturers that supply us resin. Typical resin has a shelf life of 6 months to maybe a year. Instead of throwing it out, they now sell it to a company that pre-packages it and sells it as DIY repair kits. Public is not aware the resin is outdated so no harm no foul. And, most peeps do not fully read the instructions and wonder why it did not work.. LOL Is it noticeable? I never tell anyone it will be gone.. It is glass, glass refracts light. Therefore if I tell a person it will be 90% invisible and 100% structurally safe. I can sleep well at night. If it is so hard to find after the repair that the customer can't see it. Then I have succeeded, and look like a magician. Typical cost here: I charge $65 for the first shot and $15 for any addt'l on retail work. Safelite here charges $129.99 for the first shot and usually won't repair more than one as they make their money with installs.. But, on average.. $50 and up in almost all States is common.

 

I just realized who you were...

How are you Ray?

 

Cool man thanks for the info, I'll let him know. You have a website? maybe he'll give you a call?

 

How you been homer? Long time, I met you at hooters years back I believe when you were just started talking about doing the grills. I then purchased one off you about a year or more ago, met you at home depot parking lot. I saw you were going to rausch, trying to go but work may grt in the way. Wanted to get suggestions on the grill I got from you. Long story

 

Now, there's a name I haven't heard or seen in a very long time!!
