Mine appear to be near the front depending on the condition of yours perhaps front and back, make sure to plug in a light, can be tricky to see if they been under awhile the dust hides um good

Re: Noob in CO!!!

That truck has been forsale forever in Colorado and that flame job is horrid. I hope you are planning a repaint on the front-end at least.

If your truck is missing the jackstands I will sell you my spare set for $250. I was keeping them in case my other ones ever wear out, but if it helps another sy/ty owner I can part with them.

Welcome to the forum!

Syty militia, why would u ask if I'm related to someone that's starting shit on the board??? I am a legit owner, I've built a turbo beretta, I'm a car guy I've asked a question about the truck I have but not a stupid question like where the oil filter is!!!!

Did I say you were starting shit? Did I say typhoon noob was starting shit? I just made a comparison based upon your short stay here so far.

I didnt say you werent a legit owner. That truck has been around the SyTy Scene for longer than you probably even realize. So youre a "car guy"....the above quotes make that seem questionable.

Welcome to the forum noob. :roll: Welcome to truck ownership which is unlike your turbo beretta. Talk less, search and listen more...you'll be surprised at what is already answered here for you. Good luck. :2cents:

Holy shit. :shoot: Choose one. Are you, or arent you?

Let me put it in simple terms for you. These trucks break all the time for various reasons.

The statement: "did it come with jackstands..." pertains to the fact that when you bought the truck, did you also receive a set of jackstands due to sooner or later, you will need them to put the truck on due the shit will be broken. Its a car humor joke. Ha-ha?

Re: Noob in CO!!!

Consider it initiation. If you can't put up with the crap and heckling from these guys, you may not have what it takes to maintain a Syclone. :lol:

If you leave a stock truck alone and do the regular maintenance, then it can be as reliable as anything else.

Start throwing bolt ons at it, playing with mods, and/or beating on the truck just a little, and stuff starts breaking. You didn't buy a Honda that you can catalog mod. You bought a limited production vehicle with very little R&D. Stock parts are getting harder and harder to find. Aftermarket support is extremely limited.

Take your time. Read some of the stickies around the board. Be patient with search, it's not easy but it does work.

I've got pics of your truck at Truck Fest in 2003 and Nationals 9 in 2006. I'm sure others may have pics of it older than that.

Welcome to the forums :tup:

Re: Noob in CO!!!

It's a joke because half of the members on this board have a broken down Syclone or Typhoon. I think people are harassing you a bit because you were actually under your truck looking for the jack stands. lol

Going to need a thicker skin to hang out here, as all noobs are going to receive a little hazing. Don't let it bother you and there are a great bunch of guys local if you have questions you can't find the answers to here on the forum.

Re: Noob in CO!!!

That's pretty funny about the jackstands, the only problem I have is that guy saying I'm not a gearhead, I've made cars last that everyone said were junk like the quad4 beretta's so I don't think I'll have too many issues with my truck.... And about the flames on the truck I started off by saying I'm not a fan but the truck is in excellent shape so it needs a paint job which I can do myself!!!!! Also I wasn't under the truck looking for jackstands just for the record....
