    That wrap is SICK! I need a wrap because the new T4Rs scratches if you look at them wrong, just ask Equipt.

    Looks sweet. I may have to get some info from you about local places to do wraps. If I keep doing the roof racks I may consider investing some money into advertising and wrap my truck.

    Did tepui let you do a lot of the design or did they want to do it?

    ...too much shit to list.
    Ok...I guess I'll be that guy.
    The topo is cool, but why the rolling billboard? I mean I could get it if it was your company Adam, but that's certainly not the case here.

    I can definitely help you get them. Give me another week or so just to have everything finalized and I should be able to help with mats or whatever else.

    The situation is slightly different from a typical distributor type role. There are other things I'm working on for Tepui that caused the wrap to makes sense. I can't go into the details of that yet. But, it could all change with the wrap. The guy I was working with to do the wrap was a friend of mine that was also part of our Chase crew for Canguro Racing when we did the Baja 1000. Because of the relationship he worked a deal on the wrap that was less than half the cost of having it wrapped somewhere else. Since I pulled the plug on that deal I'm not sure I can work out the same kind of deal somewhere else. So the wrap may or may not happen in the end. So the "rolling billboard" even though it made sense, could be a non-issue. Also, I wasn't paying for the wrap.

    I feel like we have a good partnership in the works.

    I'm sure that is the case. You don't strike me as a flighty fellow.

    Working to convince the lady on a tepui for next year's summer. They are only 45 mins from me so, it's hard to beat local pickup and service if needed.

    She keeps asking how the dogs will get in, and I don't think 'toss them' was the right answer...

    Hey Adam, qustion for you about OME rear leafs... I'm going to install mine soon. Was thinking I wanted to do Poly bushings, and I will for the rear hangars, but they came with a bushing molded into the front eyelet. Are yours installed with that bushing, or did you remove it and install a Poly ? Do yours squeek much ?

    That's pretty cool looking, Adam, congrats on the deal with Tepui. Too bad wrap boy is going to be a failure.

    I used the bushing that were pressed into the main eyes. Actually if you look back a bit through this thread you will see that I recently replaced them. I used the pressed in Toyota Bushings again. There is a little noise but hardly noticeable.

    You could easily swap them out for polys if you wanted, just need a press since those other bushings are sleeved. If you don't have a press you can burn out the rubber and use a sawzall to cut the sleeve.
