OFFICIAL CENTRAL KY THREAD

Sean at Precision Tinting (who's done all my tint jobs over the yeas) told me once that he usually had at least 1 or 2 tint jobs a week that were to correct a Trail Blazer hack job.[/QUOTE]

Speaking of Precision tinting, they just need my F150 last weekend and I couldn't be happier. Yeah, it was pricey but man thou did an awesome job.

 

I paid 350$ for my Tacoma to do ceramic tint last year
Best investment I’ve ever made in cooling down my truck and making it more comfortable

 

But you don’t even drive your truck?

Thank you

 

But it's cool....

 

Long drive for you but it may be difficult to find something close by

 

You are just so darn funny

 

Yeah cause in your many years on the planet you’ve never had a vehicle you’ve invested a ton of money and time into and had problems with.
Ya know like a old muscle car?

The turd gen is a lemon that I’ve had to deal with,
I want certain stuff out of my truck and my luck hasn’t held in a lot of aspects.
And I don’t believe in half assing work just to get it done quicker.
You should know that’s not the Military way.

The truck is in California
I should be there now too but my flight has now been cancelled 3 EFFING TIMES.

Things don’t always go the way we plan and my build taste and yours are different but as politely as I can say this to all of you fine fellows


Lay off
The “you don’t drive it” “it’s cool” stuff is old
I just want my truck back so I can drive it and not continue to do repairs
But since I have to do shit right now I look at certain upgrades as an opportunity to avoid future problems

Like the 3.5 kit vs the 4.5 kit
It’s evaluation of pro and con and looking at future issues each set up may cause.

And just to reiterate
The new rear axels are going from 66” to 70”
So now the front has to be larger period
So the 3.5 is the minimum upgrade I had to make
The 4.5 was optional with better performance

Long travel suspension is complex and is not as simple as bolt shit on and go.
Geometry matters
Gusseting weak points matters
Building stuff up to avoid stress fractures is important.
So on and so forth

 

Lighten up Francis.....

 

Which 4.5 kit?

 

My buddy just had a lift, wheels/tires and a tonneau cover installed there on his new Z71 and was very happy with his experience.

 

For anyone that decides to do the frame coating, go to Toyota South. I am very impressed with the quality of work they did on my truck. It looks fantastic. Two thumbs up!

 

Frame coating??

hey guys, I forget, can I link to my B/S/T thread that i put up? I wrecked my Taco back before I moved to KY, but have left over parts taking up room in my garage.

 

I don’t see why not but I’d put the link in the buy/sell/trade sticky!

 

Road trip to AZ! Let’s see, Buffalo National River, AR, Foss State Park and Black Kettle National Grasslands, OK, Cadillac Ranch, TX, Cibola National Forest in NM, but this evening it’s The Grand Canyon!! Time to get up and pack up and head out!!

 

Toyota owners know how to work on their rigs, heeps on the other hand . . . .
