Flagstaff/Northern AZ Thread

yeah ill have to figure out materials.

 

https://atozfabrication.com/

Thats where I got the spindle, latches, tire mount, and recovery points for mine. Then the 3/16 plate and 2"x.25 square

 

And the $650 was for all materials including the bumper. The steel for just the tire carrier was probably about $100

 

You have a mig w/ gas at your house?

 

Yep and a tuning bender. Only die I have though is for 1.75. Want to buy a plasma cutter next year

 

Hmm that's good to know

 

Yep. Built all my shit at home. Hit me up if you have any projects in mind. I will work for small cash donations, pizza, beer, or a combination of such

 

Sounds good. I have a welders at home but don't have the space in my apartment to bring them. Have the knowledge so mainly seeking the space and equipment. Definitely will hit you up about projects though!

And I can provide any of the things listed haha

 

Sounds good. And as soon as I get my truck all back together we should get a group of us out for a trail run/ meet up somewhere. If only king would hurry up and get me my damn shocks that is. Going on week 7 now and about to lose my spare car and be driving around on just leaf springs

 

Driving around on just leafs isn't bad! I did it for like 2 weeks, only gets sketchy if you go on the highway and hit the potholes... then RIP to you

 

This is where my used to live. She is Navajo not many people know this place cause its in reservation. This is one of the reasons why I got my Taco!

 

Yeah really RIP to me I'm spring under now and gonna be pulling hopefully 18" of travel in the rear. If that pogo stick gets going it's all over for me

 

Haha yep. Kinda wish I went spring under from the beginning.

 

Me too. Would've saved me about $7k if I would've just gone straight to LT. But you have to learn what you want and let the truck evolve with you.

 

So when we getting some kinda run or trip put together?

 

As soon as I have shocks. Hopefully sooner than later but could be anywhere from another week to another month

 

Mod day then?

 

I got a big driveway if anyone else needed to do stuff. I'd just be short on jack stands since I'd be utilizing all of mine. while cycling and setting up shock mounts, bumps and limit straps. Also probably wouldn't be much help to anyone else since I'd be busy busting my shit out.

What you need to get done?

 

Let me know if you want another hand cycling everything etc or just to hang over there.

I have two jack stands if someone else needs them.

 

Will do. I should be fine. Gonna finish the bed cage install and button it up to make it driveable tomorrow since I'm losing my spare car. But probably gonna call king today and ask them where the hell my shocks are at.
