    My Sgt. Strife skidplate arrived today!!! Prepped it by wiping it off with denatured alcohol and made sure to "key" the skid plate (as Edd China would say). Cleaned it again with the alcohol and then did 3 coats with self etching primer. Will let it dry overnite then will paint it with black bedliner to give it a very tough shell in case it takes a hit or 2.
    Am debating if I will have the patience to mask the 1941 and outline that in red as seen in another thread. Will decide on that tomorrow.
    Thanks again to Sgt. Strife for an awesome skidplate will recommend it to anyone thinking of extra protection. Well worth the $$

    Yea the one you see above is it. It's made by a local forum member not a big company that's why you will not find it online. The quality is awesome and well worth the $$. Here is mine after primer and bedliner....

    Wonder if Sgt. Strife ever got permission to sell his stuff here. Or if he even bothered to ask?

    First I got mine thru contacting him on a different forum
    . 2nd he is not advertising on this forum. Members of this forum have gotten his skidplate and posted happy/excited reviews as it is a quality product for a platform that does not see much aftermarket support.
    3rd it's no different than various other posts extolling the virtues of some dodad that someone found fits our platform.
    4th instead of the veiled comment on a post he may or may not see why not contact him directly and see if he wants to become a vendor on this forum.
    Lastly don't come in and crap on my thread I purchased an item I liked it am happy someone is making something for our platform and am letting others know I'm happy with it. Thought this is what the forum was supposed to be about. Exchanging ideas/info on our ride good or bad. If all were going to be able to talk about is officially liscenced products this forum will get even slower than it already is....

    I did reach out. Last message sent to forum owner was 9/21 with no response.

    Regardless of the lack of response, out of respect for the rules, I don't advertise on this forum.

    Thanks for the concern.

    Crap on your thread? Might I remind you that you are a guest here. Please respect the rules set in place on this site which is free to you.

    If you do not like the manner in which this site is run, please spend more time at the "different forum" of which you speak.

    See the comment above which Sgt. Strife actually answers in a professional manner.

    Which rule did I break? Not being nice to you? Again I bought something specific for this forum and I posted MY personal opinion about it.
    You on the other hand came in and accused Sgt Strife of not contacting management without knowing if he did or didn't.
    I do spend more time on the other forum as it moves at light speed compared to this one.

    Maybe I missed something but the last I recall, you didn't seem interested in how much it would cost to advertise here. If you continue to comment on your product here, I will be forced to suspend your account.

    And here you are still being a duche toward forum members. Not a nice way to moderate your forums and promote growth. And just so you don't think I'm being mean hi, how u doin?

    I wasn't aware that it was a violation to clear your name, which is the only reason I commented on this. Thanks for not understanding that though even though it was clearly not about promoting or endorsing my product. You've got a knack for customer care :confused:.

    I'm glad at least frank noticed I was being respectful. However, I don't feel a mutual respect reciprocated when you and your staff come in slandering and making assumptions instead of communicating internally to figure your crap out. All it would take is you taking a quick gander at your inbox to cipher where we actually left off. To top it off, you threaten to suspend my account... really?! o_O Compensating much with your misguided authority? No benefit of the doubt given here.

    This is the last straw since this isn't the first or fifth time I've witnessed such disrespect and poor treatment towards me and many other forum members... Not sure how you plan to gain vendors like this.

    Since it seems to be too difficult for you to find, here is the full conversation we had. You can't expect someone to make a decision with unanswered questions.

    Don't worry about answering them though as I don't want my name associated with such a douchebag of a company. Peace out.

    I step away for a few days for hunting and you guys broke everything lol, well then.

    Gonna say I got one because of a fb group and him and I have discussed new products, they're well built, and well executed. I'll be repeat offender/buyer.

    Not sure where the disconnect is, but damn fellas, lighten up. Wish Sgt_Strife luck, he is on a good trail with his products, but if it's not on this forum then so be it. I'm 100% confident the guys here aren't on just one and we like sharing across the board. TH4x4, glad you FINALLY got it installed [emoji6]

    If you can't have a little fun, then go home [emoji14]

    Don't like the way I run my forum that I allow you to use for FREE, don't have to be here. Contrary to what you choose to believe, this is not some kind of popularity contest for me and unlike the forums out there that are run by mega corporations, "promoting growth" isn't why I started mine.

    Since you seemed to have missed it, I never said you talking about his skidplate was a problem. I was simply commenting on what you were saying about you spending more of your time on other forums. Since you seem to think I'm a "douche" and they move at light speed, may I encourage you to spend more of your time there.

    The rules you were required to agree to in order to become a member here clearly state that vendors are not allowed to participate unless they are an advertiser here. Since you seemed to have missed it the first time around, the following link should help remind you of them:

    http://toasterjeep.com/index.php?help/terms

    The fact that I allowed you to stay on as a member in spite of the fact was me trying to be nice but apparently, you feel you're somehow entitled to be on here. As far as customer care goes, I didn't realize you were a customer of mine but I'll be sure to send you a full refund.

    Please don't let the door hit you in the ass as you leave. :)

    So if you didn't start the forum to gain members and actively seek to grow your forum why start it? To feed your ego?.
    Without forum members you don't have exposure that a vendor wants to expose their product to.
    Without vendors you have no income to pay for the bandwidth for the forum... Btw my buying products from those vendors indirectly benefit your pocket so it's not free to me as you imply..
    Oh btw I do spend most of my time on the other forum I come by here just in the off chance there might be 1 new post a day that might not be mine.... Have a nice day.
