Flagpole Knob, Harrisonburg VA spring camping trip - March 25th

I didn't know we might be graced by your presence! How are those icons Mark?

Coot

 

Yup. Sent them a PM last night. Looking at:
All 3 skids 3/16" steel
Bolt on sliders at 20 degrees, no fill plates.
All black powdered.

 

Sounds pretty kick ass man, will they have those available soon to put on?

Coot

 

Love them. And I'm always down to wheel with you guys

 

Hell yea man glad that worked out for ya. Have they given you any more height out of the front with them on? Agreed its always a good time when you are in the bunch.

They told me there was an 8-10 week lead time. I am negotiating with the CFO (wife), who wants a new sewing machine ($4K), so we'll see how it plays out. My plan is to get them installed late Feb/Early March if I can come to terms with the CFO.

 

$4k sewing machine?? Does it sew gold or metal?

 

Neither. It sews quilts. The good news is that we should be able to sell one her current machines for $1500.

It's one of these:

I sort of gloss over when she's talking about it. But at least she has quit asking about this:

Can she make money with the sewing machine?

 

Atleast if you got that, only got to buy that once! Ah I thought you meant you were going to have your armor by the 7th of January! I will def have my kings off by the time your armor gets done.

Coot

 

At least she doesn't want a jeep lifted on 37's

 

Well... I just ordered the skids:

1 full set of 1/4" thick steel skid plates (181 lbs) Normal Price $700, Sale Price $355 (Powder coat adds $150, shipping PM for quote)

 

Nope. But neither can I with the armor.

 

HELL YEA MANNNNNNN! You could go pick those up as well! Anyway if you need help installing them let me know as I installed all mine and they are pretty easy after you understand how it needs to be done. That is a steal man, I was bummed seeing that deal, but feel good knowing that is going to you!

Coot

 

I am gonna go have them install them! But I have to wait for the powder coat.

 

No worries man, just gives us more time. I think considering the stuff we have been driving on skids might be a priority to getting done earlier anyways. Nice thing is Mobtown will take the powder coat items to another guy so his fabrication time shouldn't get in the way of those getting delivered. Speaking of which...my bumper should be almost done! When you go to mobtown, might have to get my bumper!

Coot

 

Damn that's cheap. Armor won't make money. But it'll save a bunch

 

@CaliDevilDoc

 

Indeed. They are apparently not going to be making the 1/4" steel anymore (just 3/16 steel and aluminum), and they are closing out their inventory. I got the last full set they had.

 

When you get those put on and some new coils I got a feeling you might start driving more like me.
