It looks good. But what's the point if it's on the ground? Why not a roll pan?
Because that would mean welding, filling and then have a body shop paint probably the whole bed. I do plan on painting the entire bed at some point because the wheel wells have issues that need a body shop but not this year. I have seen the roll pans that aren’t welded in and they look like cheap garbage so I’m not going that route. This was my fix that I could do myself, and I was able to replace a peeling chrome bumper with a painted one for $150 total out of pocket expenses. So I guess the quick answer is $$$. I actually want to spend money on building an engine for it and that’s in line before the body and paint work.

Good to have priorities and a plan.

I have been bitten twice by Black Widows, neither made it. :)

The first I didn’t feel the bite, two little fang spots and big red target shaped swelling around the bite. No other symptoms.

The second hurt like hell right when she bit me. I felt lousy for the rest of the day with that one. Nasty little dead spot took a while to heal. She was a mean one.

The most painful spider bite I got was a wolf spider. Giant female, another mean one. She didn’t even try and scurry away after biting me. She was like, “bring it!” Big mistake. :)

We have some around here called the brown recluse. It’s the only poisonous critter we have except in the desert east side of the state. They’re small but one bite can seriously mess a person up. I guy I was working with at a construction site got a bite and didn’t do anything for 2-3 days and his leg swelled up huge. He finally went to the ER after work one night because he was in so much pain and they had to operate and the dude ended up with a huge hole the size of my fist in his thigh where they removed the infected part of his leg.

A friend of mine got bit by one. He put his pants on and felt the sting in his thigh. It rotted away and he ended up with a golf ball sized hole where he got bit. Nasty.

When i was a kid, i ran a forklift in a warehouse.
I bumped one of those little bastards and made my getaway.
The little fker chased the forklift!!

I stepped off the lift and onto the spider.


Aggressive little fker.


And yeah, we get both of them.
And some others.

Ran into a huuuuge green spider down by utah lake once, it gave me chills.

I shot it.

I can't remember what it was, but it was very pretty for a spider...

My black widow friend named Bertha, she is getting the chemicals.

I would have squashed her if not for me wearing flip flops.

I'm heading back with pants, desert combat boots with those pants tucked in like im a dork.
And a long sleeve shirt that i will sweat in kuz its 100 degrees outside.


And i got checked out by teh instacare for good measure.

He confirmed i did a smart.
Cut the center of the bite and squeezed that fker until it bled, then keept squeezing.
Followed up with hydrogen proxcid because "why not".

Probably saved me from a long night of being not so comfortable.

Please tell me more about this switch. The driver seat in thecopcar is spotty at best moving forward. The other directiones still work.
Basically I had just been living with a seat that wouldn’t move forward at all until I realized one day it had to be the control switch itself and checked Amazon for a replacement. There are a few YouTube videos that show how to replace it but it’s very simple. Just make sure you don’t accidentally buy a switch for an 8-way power seat when your Tahoe has 6-way seats like I did at first.

Do you remember the part number by chance?
