I have a connection with ARB and was lucky enough to order directly from them.
If your interested, I might be selling my front springs to go a little big bigger. They have 100 miles on them, if that and only 5 miles off road.

Pm me

WUZUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP? lol.....

Hey buddy.... Just wanted to letcha know....



Couple questions..... DON'T LAUGH! hehehe...

1. Should I strip them of oil really well and paint them as I'll be wanting them, first, before I bring em over????

2. Should I bring anything to drink? .... I don't drink... but I serve it all the time... Would be glad to bring drink and grub if you'd like me to.

I was going to try and order the rear bumper as well.. same shot. BUT, alas, I can't part just yet with that cabbage. I'd rather do the other things I'm working on first... I mean, after all, my rear Bumper is brand new and, well, while it might not be 'TANK ARMOR', lol.... it'll do fine for now. HOWEVER... if I have more BEYOND close calls like I had before..... and wind up crunching the areas that sliders are meant to protect... THEN I'D BE FURIOUS! lol.

Take care, man! Lemme know when you think you'd be free. I don't wanna pressure ya.... PROMISE! I'm VERY grateful!

Good deal Man! i would leave them "as is" and when we burn em on we'll strip em clean and paint after. Reason i hate painting before installation is i usually scratch the paint in the process. So a little masking off and paint after usually works well for me. Totally up to you though.No need to bring anything, I have tools, beer(dont usually drink while working),and we can just go grab lunch, etc. I'll let u know what weekend is good for me.

Hey, thanks a LOT, mang! Right on... I'm not even sure when I'll get them... Still no shipping notice. But I WILL NOT stress over it, .................of course, within reason, lol.

Shouldn't be TOO long, I would imagine. Seriously.... I'm very grateful, brudda!

Nice truck you got there. Love seeing your pics. Looks like a lot of fun. And love the work you've done. I used to live in San Pedro but now moved to San Diego. I'm new to off roading and have only taken my 4runner to Ocotillo once, was very fun. I hope to join you up in LA sometime.
