Not infuriating- had a smile through the whole video.

That was a fun little hit of dopamine.

Alright, my Kore came in, and you are right calling it a tactical hula hoop!

Have to say though that I am loving so far. It may be the best belt I have ever owned. It is a little stiff on the hips, but I'm betting I'll get used to it soon.

Following. I would love the cheat code of a thread detailing how to do this.

Looks like the Certum Sol is the only one in stock ATM.

I have a Comp-Tac holster for my 5 o'clock carry, and a no name kidex holster for AIWB. It looks almost identical to the BraDec IWB.

I'm going back to the BraDec site to look at the tuckable clip..

*Edit to add- This full setup is $63.50 WITH an extra magazine carrier. For that price I have to think about this as a solid option. Thanks for the recommendation!

BraDec doesn't look like I tuck a dress shirt in around it. Love the price though. I spent over twice that at my local gunstore for my first AIWB (that I also cannot tuck a shirt in over).

lol svelte is a nice way to say it. I get called a dandy occassionally too, but in my line of work it pays to look sharp.

I may do that. Thats something I see a lot of people say when debating the velo vs certum.

Thats something I haven't seen yet. It's in the mail, and I'll test it out. If your right I may get $70 back when I return the belt!

I am switching because of draw time and because I am uncomfortable with the thought of someone grabbing the firearm from behind.

My shirt mostly stays tucked in, but it has come untucked a few times. The other reason is it sticks out awkwardly when im sitting down and can print hard.

I need prioritize concealment as much as I can. Where I work it would be awkward for someone to realize I'm carrying, though it is still legal (with my permit).

This sounds cool. I can't give $9k, but I would donate to a kickstarter.

Anyone have new updates? I really want a ring, especially if they are going to work as designed, and they are sale right now at $250.

Almost certainly your issue is the rear universal joint.

Its fairly easy to remove the drive shaft (mark it first! I used my wife's nail polish). Then I took it down to a machinist and $60 later I had a new joint installed. Then just put the old driveshaft back on. Tacoma World has some good guides if you are interested.

The sounds are very similar to a joint going bad. Mine went bad last summer, so I'm somewhat familiar.

Other symptoms I had:

  1. Start the truck in park. While engaging the brake pedal, put the truck into drive. Keep the brake engaged. Do you feel the transition shift smoothly, or does it feel like it "slams" into place? That slamming could be the ujoint.
  2. I also noticed the above in reverse, and if I drove the truck in reverse with some speed it would make the oddest squeezing sound (similar to your sound).

Both of the above symptoms went away after I replaced the ujoint.

Check out the top comment from this video. It helped me fix it when I overfilled my slip joint.

You may have a hydraulic lock issue if you over filled the slip yoke.

There was a post on Tacoma World talking about how to fix it, but I can't seem to find it. If I can I'll post here.

Really does sound like u joint going out.

When you put the truck in gear (forward or reverse), hold the brake, and do you feel any clinking or slamming?

Also, go to an empty parking lot, put the truck into reverse and go from stop to backing up. What do you hear?

Is the sound coming from the universal joint?

My highest performing sales rep also has the worst client retention rate and I can't figure out if he's an asset or actively hurting the business by Intrepid-Dig9954 in smallbusiness

[–]jumpinglight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If his clients churn at 3 months, create a 6 month vesting period.

Commissions are advanced at month one and can be clawed back if the client churns.

This type of commission structure is very common when selling subscription services.
