Southwest Florida B.S. Thread

Damn this thread is dead, anyone in the Ft.Myers or Cape Coral area?

 

I will be "in route" next Tuesday for Ft.Myers...and once settled will be asking for "tour guides" for local wheeling areas....

We are in the Ft.Myers Shores area so my neighbors are still Cattle,farms and a few groves ...with the Caloosahatchee as my back yard...

 

I'm in fort Myers. Near downtown

 

Ft.Myers shores huh,that area is nice. I like the buckingham area because it's a little more secluded,I am born and raised SWFL and hate the cape. And downtown Ft.Myers is a nice area as well,the party scene lol.

 

We are out in Olga or if you come up the river from Jacks Marine, 2nd or 3rd canal on your right....

My wife and I will be adventuring the "Downtown" once she arrives mid-March...My GPS has the important stops; HOME, Winn-Dixie,Bass Masters,the Farm Estero and Joes Crab Shack.....

 

Ill attempt to revive this thread....Cape Coral/Ft. Myers here.

Anybody know of good shops around here that does good suspension work? im looking to get some done soon.

 

I would like an answer to this also......

I am already calling "Local weld" shops to see if any would take on 1st Gen rear bumpers.....I really want PLATE BUT shipping from SOS or CBI is KILLING...

 

As I've mentioned before your "backyard" is beautiful. And Joe's Crab shack. I love that place. That location in particular, right by the water. My wife & I go to Miromar Outlets sometimes. Once we leave there we drive further north to Joes & then back home to Miami.

 

OK, you plan that kind of "trip"....drop a number and we can "quietly"wake up FT.Myers .

Thank you again for the "back yard compliment" but it is ALL Mother Nature... Even if SHE played with us yesterday ; Full Moon Tide,good rainfall amounts and cross winds had the water about 3" below the lower river wall ...........mentioned that this AM and neighbors chuckled....Knock on wood the developement has has bad high water twice since the '70s

 

Sounds like a plan! Will do.

BTW, twice only since the 70's sounds pretty damn safe to me & yes, knock on wood.

 

HEAVY duty traffic for an EASTER Sunday afternoon....

Someones crew will be at it bright and early Monday ..

Hey South Florida,

Hope you all had a good Easter Weekend. Mine was awesome, got my Rock Sliders welded up and my ARB Fog lights hooked up. Here are a few pictures.

 

I got the ARB Fog Lights form a local shop here in Doral, Florida called Auto Bruder 4WD Store. their show room is amazing, plus they have A LOT of Toyota Parts &WD accessories in stock.

 

Nice! just wondering how much does a shop charge to weld up some sliders? thx

 

What's up nammer the shop that did the welding is Karnage Motor Sports. We had a couple pending things so we just canceled out one another with this job.

I recommend you call Nick (786) 355-9685 or Will (305) 609-4747 Don't quote me on this but I think this cost $250.00 or so.

 

$250 to weld on Sliders is pretty dang steap IMO.

 

cool, thx for info

i agree, i had no idea, i never looked into it, i was hoping it'd be like 50-80, just hit a couple welds and call it a day

 

I would never pay more than $100 tops

 

Quiet day on the Caloosahatchee after fininshing the "Honey-doo's"
Quick ride and then pulling the boat at WP Franklin Lock ...
