This weekend, I’m gonna work on getting the tiny little block that is next to the latches off my old gates. When I dropped the truck off, Franz said those are impossible to find.

I think My buddy Chad Yarbrough repops them. I’ll ask him when I see him this weekend at Bulli Brigade.

Cool thanks in advance for asking around.  Let me know if your buddy makes ’em.  They were hard to describe, so I’m putting up a picture of the part I’m talking about (circled in red).

Yeah man, I know exactly the part you’re talking about. I need some myself for the singlecab I recently painted.

Wondering on the gerson gates, anyone else have problems with the captured nuts spinning internally while installing the latches? that was a fun thing to happen after I’ve painted everything. Was careful to not get paint build up on the treads and ran a tap through them. about half of them spun on me.

SWEET!!!    get er done Chris…    I am glad Chris finally signed up for the forums…  He does a lot of crapy work like blasting and trash and putting up with me….      and I prefer anyone that hangs out here, especially works here, be vocal, and help with the Hype… 😎

When the bottom is done… I think I will do some cutting and looking and then get the rest of our green metal ordered… 😎

Had to pull tension on the latch while tightening down the philips screw without fucking up the paint on the screw head. I wouldn’t ever recomend trying to remove these.

Headed down to bulli tomorrow. staying at the hotel right there at the show. Wesly Chapel saturday night.
