209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

I tell you what... if he does live out of State now, it's probably because the entire CA hunting community was trying to figure out who he was so we could beat the shit out of him. Still a lot of people who would like to (myself included).

As soon as it came out that was caused by a hunter, the tree hugging hippy anti-hunters were coming out of the wood work blaming ALL hunters for the fire.

 

Is this the guy?

Wtf, hmmmm seems fishy to me.

"That witness died in February in a workplace accident.

The second witness, a helicopter pilot who responded to the Rim fire, died of cardiac arrest. He was expected to testify about the initial response to the fire and Emerald's rescue near the origin of the fire."

 

Cool, my extended brakes lines shipped. I will change the brake lines and bleed the brakes once I get them in my hands.

 

Ok, maybe not so fishy. Lol

 

Still fishy that both people died before the testimony...

 

As a tree hugger, it makes me so mad that more of us don't understand the critical role hunters play in conservation. Every hunter I've ever met is just as passionate about preserving our natural resources as any hippy.

 

@Uphillshunter did you have something that you needed to get to @FirstTimeFirstGen? I'm going to be seeing him this weekend so I could transport said item.

 

Good thinking. We were gonna meet up Thursday but it can wait. A set of 5100s and coils coming my way. My sway bar and a pair of icon shocks for @foxrcing07 going his way

 

You understanding of the role hunting plays in the system makes you specifically NOT a "tree hugger" in my book.

I'm using tree hugger as a derogatory... and I would not put you in that classification.

 

I’m debating on some weld on kits for sliders in comparison to bolt on. Anyone have any insight to the pros and cons of both?

Pros of bolt on is that you can obviously take it on and off as you see fit. Others claim that welding messes with the heat treatment of the frame?

Chassis unlimited has weld on sets of DOM tubing for a quarter of the cost of some of the big name fabricators

 

Well as far as bolt or weld on...I JUST picked up my bolt ons for my 3rd gen.

They look good, gonna do bed liner so they’re easy to repair

 

Where are these from?

 

@CaliRaisedLed
20 degrees DOM with kickout and I ordered them a week ago. They keep them in stock. I was gonna do BAMF but they told me 8-12 weeks lead time and CaliraisedLED keeps business on the west coast . The price was good and I picked them up from a place in a dublin since I was heading to Livermore anyway.

 

Ah yes I remember seeing those. I was going to pull the trigger but I don't like that they are 20 degrees. I was looking to get something more like 5-10 degrees so I can use it as a step.

 

Yeah get that, but that’s why I liked them! For me even 0 degree is so high up to the base of the door it kinda sucks as a step, and getting out you either bend your leg in half or long step to get out over them. But in the end whatever works!

 

I don't mind having to awkardly get out of the rig lol I barely raised the truck and my gf was complaining that its hard to get into compared to before.

 

I almost fell out of my truck when got out of it right after we lifted it this last time



Ask @CalTacoma09 and @foxrcing07 they thought it was hilarious

 

Jen doesn't complain about how hard it is to get in my truck... because hers is probably 6 inches higher than mine lmfao
