Question for Clay

Hey Clay.

Im about to order some IC boots from you tonight. One side measured 3.25" and I could not get to the other. Would it be safe to assume its the same for the other side of the pipe? The side I was able to measure was the passenger side.

Thank you Sir.

Dan M.

Dan, wish I would have known you were in Parker, was just there last Wednesday and Thursday.

It probably is but you know what they say about assuming. Driver side should be pretty easy to get to though.

Looks like they are 3.25. I did some crude measurments. Whats the inserts for? Im guessing they are what goes into the middle of those boots with the high ridges in them, to keep them from collapsing? Its only a guess. I have never delt with these kinda things at my work. So its kinda new to me. Sorry for the iggnorant questions lol.

Right on Chris! Thats the plan anyways. If they ship out today, Im guessing they should be here by Saturday afternoon. The only bad thing is I dont get off work till 3pm on the 24th and will probably be out there between 4:30 and 5:00. Ill have to run home and get my dog and bring her out. Thats if I get out of there on time and stuff...We get pretty busy at that time of day. Im not sure how long it takes and whatnot to do something like this.

I contacted Andrew too, I told him about the G2G this weekend and he said he has a company meeting in Bakersfield, Cali. this weekend. I haven't seen him since he towed my truck out to the field where it sat for a few months. I still owe the kid another Slurpee from 7-11 lol.
