Northern Virginia Roll Call

oh ok

 

Looks great Patrick!
I was looking at my LR UCAs when I did my last maintenance, and they have a lot of surface rust on them.

 

Patrick and @Lots2Learn58 are making everyone want to upgrade, including me! Im planning for this winter

 

I've also got a set of OME shocks with 885x springs for sale. Haven't taken any pictures yet.

 

Yeah, mine have a little bit but the mechanical bits are still in excellent condition.

 

A deer decided he wanted an up close look at my bumper last night on 28. I was doing about 60. The collision was just like it was in the video game cruising USA - blood and body parts were flying everywhere. Check out the hair and blood on the bumper and license plate.

 

now you can take your insurance money and buy a plate bumper

 

Deer just love running into your truck. Good thing you're ok though

 

Shit, I had that happen a few years ago. Insurance was not happy with the price to repair the damage. Fucking deer

 

I hit my first 2 deer ever in the last 12 months. I find it ironic that I live in Western Loudoun, where most people have their deer wrecks, and have escaped that area unscathed, yet the two deer I hit were in heavily populated areas, right off of 28 in Sterling and Chantilly.

I think this is either a) a case of kamikaze deer bent on retribution for the deer I have killed hunting in the past, signaling that I should curtail my reaping of their kin, or b) a sign that I need to kill even more of these fuckers to cull the herd.

 

Yea get one of the cheap bumpers on ebay! Finally read that whole thread since you guys mention it on Saturday. I have never been so hooked on a forum post before..

On a serious note.. Glad you are ok @FlyFishVA

 

That thread is crazy! I've been watching it all day at work haha. I wanna see the finished product Wednesday

 

i keep trying to read it but the guys just kept talking in circles

 

They have a few summaries of it that are in the middle I saw

 

i've got to stop hanging around all you guys i just go home and think of everything i need to do to my truck i thinkk it left saturday with a complex

 

i hate this place lol now you've got me looking at suspensions when i've already got a lift that'll do what i need it to damnit

 

Id say you could buy my suspension, Chris, but I don't think my 6 lug would fit yours

 

Why are you looking at a new suspension? Your truck looked great and like you said it does what you need it to do.

 

The last Deer I hit about 200 lbs estimated @ 65/70 MPH was 12 years ago in North Atlanta and did $7,200 in damage hood,bumper and grill assembly,right fender,radiator and supports,fan assembly,condenser coil,headlight assembly,windshield,dash,37 days of rental car and some misc hardware stuff....

They will make your day or night go bad in a hurry.....

 

it is a six lug
