Raleigh North Carolina and surrounding areas

I know me and another member are going to be riding by soon to check your place out. Never heard of you till last week lol how long have you guys been in Raleigh?

 

We were down in the Charlotte area but moved back up this way late last summer. My wife and I are both from Raleigh but went to school down in Charlotte and lived down there for a few years afterwards. We have just had the shop for about 2 months now. We share the space with TLC transmission and auto. I help them when I am not busy and they do the same for us. They needed some help and we needed shop space so it worked out perfectly for a new small business...a lot of cost up front that we have been able to put on the back burner for now until we are big enough to get our own shop. Plus it allows us to offer a lot of services we wouldnt be able to do because of the cost of equipment. We do maintenance and repair on top of overlanding and off-road sales and installs. Not to mention Lee, the owner of TLC is one of the best transmission guys in the state and an off-road enthusiast himself...even if he is a Jeep guy.

As far as coming by to check us out...we dont have a whole lot of product for you to look at, going back to space and cost as a new business, but I will certainly help you anyway I can and would love to meet you guys. Just a dirty shop and my truck. Let me know if I can help in anyway...hope to make a wing and beer night soon!

 

I have had some transmission work done by Lee at TLC in the past. Top notch job.

 

I'll keep Lee in mind if I need any Trans work done.

Sounds like we need another Wings and drinks night soon. Anyone have any recommendations?

 

What's up guys. Been a while, still gonna be a while longer before I'm back. But in the meantime here's an update. 24.5" up front and 26" rear. Gonna probably take the blocks out the rear since I've got the AAL now.

 

Did anyone else turn there computer upside down to look at those

 

I'm looking into getting a new fender. Does anyone have recommendations for paint?

Sad fender

 

I think I saw RaleighTaco in Durham this morning around 9am. Black, single cab Taco with aftermarket wheels, looked like a lift and something on the lower part of the tailgate.

Truck was turning onto 15-501/Durham-Chapel Hill Fwy. from SW Durham Drive.

Whoever it was, nice truck.

 

So we need to have a meetup sometime soon since the weather is starting to be consistent

 

Haha yeah that was me! One of My jobsites is on sw durham rd be here for 6months lol

And thank you

 

Consistent my ass....sunburn one day and freezing the next haha but yeah lets do it lol

 

Ill pick up some white krylon spray tomorrow and we can go to town! sound like a plan?

 

I'm gonna order some touch-up super white spray. Since its covered by the flare I'm not worried about it. Just gotta get my friend to fix the dent..

 

This threads rules:

One has to be in Raleigh or Surrounding area to post here

but yeah that sounds good...so no new fender??? 53 bucks and you can have a spare laying around for our next muddy trip to uwharrie!!! Then you can pull ''deathrace'' and have no worries...well at least not about your fender lol

 

saw a 09-11 single cab tacoma today on 54 near the sheetz at mcrimmon pkwy, 6inch lift on 35s, anyone in here?

 

Lol well it hasn't been a high of 45 for at least a week now

 

Lol Yea I was mistaken, it $57...$60 shipping

 

Sup guys. New here and I just bought me a tacoma last Tuesday. I'm looking for places to take it off road in the raleigh area. Any suggestions?

 

I have also used Lee to rebuild my transfer case and replace bands on my transmission... YES I HAVE A JEEP!
