Texas BS Thread

Picked up these 2 boxes that fit just about perfect with the bed extender for cycling/camping trips. About $20 a pop from lowes. They move maybe 1/2 an inch front to back and about 6 inches side to side but I can just put more bike gear in between them

 

Anyone know of a shop in DFW that will install Clazzio seat covers in an Access Cab these for me? I'm around the Garland, Rowlett, Rockwall area but will travel a little due to this being an odd request.

I know they are just seat covers and should be easy but I'm nursing a broken leg and do not think I will have the flexibility or stamina to pull off the install for a while.

I bought black with red stitching and black leather inserts, they were overstock and $100 off.

 

@SuperBad just installed a set, he can give you a good idea of the work required and he's in your hood

 

If I knew how to do it, I’d totally help. Hopefully TW will come through!

 

Install is pretty easy just need strong hands. It takes a few hours. I actually pulled the front seats to install them so that you dont have to fight the center console being in the way. If we can work out a time I could probably help but I'm pretty busy the next few weekends.

 

Added another inch to the back to get rid of the lean. Yes i used a block, im just tired of looking at it saggy in the back. Debating on keeping the truck longer and doing jbas in the front again with fox 2.0s in all 4 corners with a dakar pack

 

That's an interesting progression of stores you have back there...

Liquor -> massage -> bed

 

haha its the new shopping center behind costco in cedar park

 

Lone Star Jamboree coming up in March. Anyone in BS thread chime in on how it was last year?

 

May, not March. I would have had a great time but my truck fell over so I only had a good time.

 

Last year was my first time and it was a great time! No way will I miss it this year. Theres a ton of info in last years thread https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...recreation-area-gilmer-tx-may-4th-7th.467669/ If you have the slightest interest in going then you def should. Its well worth it.

 

Looks like I’m headed down to Cedar Park Saturday morning

 

Nice work!! Looks great!​

What do you have planned for the turn signals?

 

Anyone get in on the TRD Pro suspension deal? If so how do you like the ride and look?

 

Okay guys, I have a couple of questions. I'm working in Odessa for the next couple of weeks (I'll be in Amarillo next month, then Dallas in April). First, WTF is the smell in Odessa? Is it from the oil fields? and second, how the hell was it 70 degrees and sunny yesterday, but this morning there is ice on my rental car? This Florida boy is having trouble adjusting!

Yea it’s the oil smell. Wife is from Midland so we’re out that way a lot. Not much to do there especially in Odessa. Go in to midland if you want to eat/drink. Hit up jumburrito for some tasty food, along with Rosas for great fast food Mexican. Go by TNT for hella good donuts. Stay away from Rankin highway if you value your life and sanity. The west side of midland off 191 is newer and nice for eating/drinking. Go eat the onion rings at clear springs.

Weather is this way in Texas. It’s crazy, stick around 5 minutes it will change.

If you have any questions or need some info about anything just PM me I’ll help ya out

 

Much appreciated. Normally when I'm onsite I don't get to see much other than what's in between the site and the hotel (I'm working 10-14 hours per day for 12 days straight), but if I get out and about I'll keep those places in mind.
