    @Speed Freek installed my lift kit and ECGS bushings recently. He does top notch work! His abilities, work ethic, and positive attitude is second to none.

    Just another thumbs up for @Speed Freek. Had him do the simple and quick job of checking/filling the nitrogen on my Fox shocks. He got me in right away and took care of it quickly. Thanks Jason and I will be back when I need something bigger accomplished.

    @Speed Freek thanks again for putting so many hours into my truck this past weekend. I'll be back when my rear bumper arrives. I trust you more than myself when it comes to cutting sheet metal straight.:woot::yay::sawzall:

    Yes the truck feels great and the brakes...they feel better than the brakes on my wife's new car...haha! Oh and you got to use your new LED light!!!

    Good to finally see your new place too. Next time I come by I won't have other errands planned, this way I can take a tour of the @Speed Freek estate.

    Hey @Speed Freek
    I’ll be back in California for most of December
    I’m looking at getting a set of sliders with kickout for an ACLB.
    Bolt on or weld, whichever is cheaper (I’d ask for you to weld them on because god gave me zero skill with a welder).
    Also, I was wondering if you do exhaust reroutes as well.
    Would you be able to shoot me a price for that stuff?
    Thanks man!

    @Speed Freek ... I was just looking at the location of the fire and thinking it’s pretty much straight NE of you. Just checking to make sure you’re okay and your place is not at risk. Hope all is well.

    No problem at all, I can take care of everything you need done and done right to boot.
    Re-routes are $240 and I provide the tubing (All mandrel bent) and that takes a couple hours to do right as I have to cut several pieces in order to get the perfect angles and weld them all back together. But you get the best routing possible that way.

    For the sliders it will vary, the welded ones are certainly stronger, but some of the bolt on ones like the Pelfreybilt ones have really thick plates that sandwich the slider so its damn near as strong as the weld on type and can be used as a jack point.

    PM me what sliders you are thinking about getting and I can give you a quote and also help you decide by helping you with the pros and cons!

    But rest assured anything I do to the truck will be of the highest quality, I take my time and I am very thorough with peoples rigs!
