Nice, I could hang yosemite sam mud flaps off of it. :gigem:I thought about hacking it down, but that is kind of dumb, sombody else might want to buy it. I'll just make a stubby one later.
Looks good for a scout which isn't saying much....
...ok fine, it kicks ass -pimp-
Nice job guys.
You need to boat tail a stock top to match. It would be an exercise in pointlessness. But it would be the perfect next project.
damn i am gonna have to smash my bronco to pieces and do that
pointless my ass, it's going to rain/snow all weekend I bet :(Quote:

single out, always nice.
looks good, does the shock hit on compession or is there more room than it looks?
optical illusion...there's like a foot between the shock and the exhaust.
hope you dont have to drop the t-case anytime soon:) looks good. why not just a dump?
tail pipes are quieter, less drummy, and its always better get the fumes as far away as possible, why not have tail pipes if u can afford'em.
According to the State of Texas, in conjunction with local and regional officials, said vehicle in question is deemed road worthy from this day forward for the time period of one year from the current date. :gigem:

The Brune Brothers are living up to their full potential. They are at an all time high, just like Johny Cash in 1968!
That is freakin' awesome!
thats awesome, just dont' break it in Clayton
This just goes to show you boys, if you work hard, follow your dreams, live in a small enough town, have an emissions exempt vehicle, and know the right people, good things CAN come true!! :gigem:Quote:

I'm going to try to run a waggy arm Fred reamed out for 1 ton TRE's, it should work. I did some little maintenance things as well, like replacing the rear shock that had less than 3 miles on it before getting pummeled in clayton by a log. Fred and I also swapped out the column so that I would actually have a bearing in the lower half of it. Fred replaced the lock cylinder as well so that an actual key will be utilized instead of a pocketknife or whatever is close. I got to thinking that maybe I should work on it a little at a time instead of 2 weeks before an event and then not touch it again until 2 weeks before the next event...NAHHHH! :)
You gonna drive it to wherever you're going again?

Well all my PSC stuff finally came in yesterday-COD! ****gobblers! I was packing up to get out of town, will show pics of bling and installation next week, if Parts Mike ever gets me my arms.
those PSC guys kinda seemed like douche bags in clayton.... but they have some sweet ass **** and seem to be doing pretty well.
so oh well id probably be a prick too :flipoff2:
Well Parts Mike finally sent me the other set of arms yesterday. They were two holer's, badass ones, set up for heims. That would be fine, except I run TRE's. So now I have two sets of "Parts Mike" arms, one single holers set up for TRE's, and one twin holers set up for Heims. Neither of these will work, and there isn't enough room on the Heim ones to add a taper. I'm pretty sure he forgot about a set, I was only charged for one. Maybe I ebay both sets, make a few bucks and start over? Both arms are badass, anyone need a set?
you sure are having hell with your steering
how much are you talking here? would they work for a high steer for my 44? a long time from now....
It's because offroad companies suck a fat one. They are too busy to talk to you to make sure they get the order right. Then, when they **** up, and they sure will **** up, they are far too busy and don't give a **** when it's time for them to pay for their mistake.
Poly Performance sent my shocks to my billing address and not the shipping address since I was home last summer and then when I called and they were taking a road trip somewhere in east texas, Dave wanted me to track them down and find a way to get them back to him to he could reship or for me to go drive across the state to pick them up. Like I made the mistake and didn't double check his work on his end :rolleyes:
I've had a lot better luck dealing with people I've met face to face or the smaller Land Cruiser specialty places. I had a power steering hose bust the other day and Matt at WOTR offered to build me a new high pressure line and ship it for cost of shipping only. I hate dealing with the larger companies that treat you like a walmart customer.
I wouldn't think that PP is a big company - but maybe it is now? I met Dave in Truckee CA once - seemed nice then :gigem:
That sucks...Fred's right, it does seem that once they have your money they stop caring about the customer. Word of mouth will do it in for those type of companies in the long run though.
I had good luck with PMP. I ordered a set of his arms for heims, decided I didn't want them mid shipment, and he just recalled them and charged me nothing. And I've heard nothing but good things about him, except for this. I say e-bay them, or sell them on one of the boards, and make a few bucks and get the arms you want/need.
They're bigger then what I'm used to. He ended up takign care of everything, I just don't think he really wanted to deal with it. The few guys I've done business with on pirate have always been great except for that one time. For larger companies, Spector Off Road comes to mind.
So they sent the wrong arms the first time and made your oder another set? Lace them with LSD and ship them back.
no, he sent the first pair of arms 2 day priority postal, and they were wrong. He then proceeded to take a week and a half to get us a second pair of arms that will not work either. When called, he said I could pay to ship them back to him and he would taper the holes, not to mention the spacing is too close for that. Or, he told me I could just send the stuff back for a refund. No apology for what he did or anything. Wouldn't even offer to have the stuff picked up.
call him again and ask him for his account # w/ fed ex or ups and that you want to send them back. Then play the silent game and make him talk first...then he's YOURS!
how close are the holes? did yo ever get the taper or do you need mine? It doesn't take much space to taper them. It would seem to me to be a dumb design for him not to be able to taper arms made for heims. That way he would only need to stock one type and add the taper later. Then again he did **** up on your order twice.
When are we starting our own biz?
