    No loss in reception. Only time I notice it cutting off is when going under the H1 viaduct, but the signal immediately comes back.

    Got the Heatshield from the dealership. I like it, fits like a glove. Hopefully doesn't crumble like the ones you get from Walmart or something.

    Soooooo I'm 99% positive I'm going to add a rear bumper to this order. Hard to beat the discount and cheap shipping. Couple questions.

    Anyone local have a high clearance rear? I'm ok with the cutting but would rather have someone their that's done it before.

    Second one. Anyone want to buy any guns? My wife's going to kill me when she finds out, would rather have them out of the house. Figured with no firearms she would resort to the basebal bat and I can outrun her so I should be ok. Well, unless I'm sleeping.....

    Was kind of kidding about selling, unless your buying. Im in the process of getting pieces together to build another 5.56 AR. Noveske upper/lower, everything V7 makes, H1, WML and a few DD and BCM bits. Up for grabs before I finish and shoot it. Once I shoot I make up some justification on why I NEED to keep it.

    Sorry man, went with standard. I'm not a fan of measuring and while it usually turns out ok, my luck with the truck hasnt been the greatest. I would make the initial cut by the taillight and my radiator would leak. I don't know how or why but It just would....

    Also with the addition of the rear bumper, we should officially be over the $5000 mark. Need to verify with Sarah but looks like free shipping for all (up to 10%).

    I just asked for an updated timeline. Pelfrey needs to build two front bumpers, two sets of sliders and a rear with tailgate. Initial plan was to get everything onto one pallet to get the biggest discount but we got some pretty bulky items coming this time so I need to wait for Sarah's reply. Not sure if we can get it all onto one and if not, what's the plan.

    Aloha everyone, my names keola just picked up a used 05 taco last week with a 6in fabtech lift and some other extras but my goals are to change up a lot on this truck to make it a nice off-road rig. The owner had it built mostly for looks so for now its a start but I love modding my cars so it only a matter of time before the truck I just picked up gets a entire make over. Anyways thinking about grabbing some sliders with Boss4x4 order if I still can but there is so much for me to learn as I came from a bagged car.

    Ok, got a reply from Sarah. It's looking like two pallets due to the bumpers but she doesn't see any problems keeping the same deal for both pallets. So 10% off your order and free shipping up to 10% of you order total.

    Still looking at 8-10 weeks out, possibly a little longer for Jimmys semi-gloss powder coat and my rear bumper with gate. Think we are doing my stuff and some extras on one pallet, Jimmy's and some extras on another.

    For those looking to grab something, jump on it, great deal.

    Hard to pass up. On the rear bumper alone I saved approximately $120 on the bumper and another $120 on shipping. How often can you save $240 on a $1200 item?

    Sarah's been awesome and I highly recommend folks talking to her at Boss 4x4 before placing any orders. I think between this pallet of armor and my previous suspension, she's saved me over $1000 in discounts and shipping.

    That's alot of hookers and blow!
