Wyoming B.S. Thread

It is going to make Sidney a ghost town. Already a lot of houses for cheap. By next year they will be flooded with nice houses for really cheap

 

The 2 post lift i ordered for the new shop showed up 9:45pm on friday. Now we just have to run power in the entire shop and bolt that bad boy down.

**mounting on left side of pic....someplace.

 

How come your not working at trippit?

 

Like...right now or full time?

I'm still killing weeds. This Thursday is my last day. Go to Tippet on Friday.

Got rained out today though.

Just picked up Igor. Driver side outer tie rid is froze. So gonna need to do tie rods and may as well do LBJs too. Can't wait though.

 

For some reason I was thinking the tippet was this week.

Where is it frozen? The adjusting threads/nut?

 

Yea he couldn't et it undone.

Nah. Well...sorta. Just hasn't started

 

My driver's side outer tie rod is frozen too... I think I'll just replace it and keep it for a trail spare

 

Yea I'm gonna replace them all. At 180k. May as well. Just have to wait till after the trip.

 

Figure one of you would have done the research on this already.

thinking of bumping up to 33's after our Shoshone trip. That being said I'm interested in the copper ray10s in a 16 but am wondering if the BS/offset on the 17's is a better choice for a 33.

16 is 4 BS with -12mm offset
17 is 4.30 BS with -10mm offset

Or am I going to be running a spacer either way?

 

Depends on the width you go with. 10'' wide and either will be fine.

12'' wide and you'll likely rub the frame a bit.

The coppers also will never come in a 16. So if you really want them, has to be a 17. Why im on a 255/80r17 instead of 255/85r16 now.

 

My bad I meant bronze, although if the 17s were more conducive then I could be tempted for the copper. I was thinking 285/75s

 

I think you'll be okay. Brett is running the Ray10s with no spacers on 295s and only rubs a bit at full steering lock on the frame with no spacers.

If you don't like the frame rubbing then you'll need to get spacers. And start cutting the fender.

Part of me wishes id gone with a set or 4 blemished bronze 17s when i had the chance..but..its gonna be so worth it.

 

Nah don't want to chop the fenders yet. front left rubs the frame a little now and it doesn't bother me. Lol, I thought for sure you would talk me into some sweet coppers for your group buy

 

Although I did appreciate my slenderness on the trail. And the 255/17 would give me the height and less width. I'll have to do some more reading

 

Well now I will..

I'm so far very happy with tire size. Took almost nothing to clear. Just the pinch welds.

So. Yea go for 255/80s with some bitchen copper ray10s

 

It's a possibility, I'm going to look into cost difference/availability of tires to get an idea of what's up. Also, just found the blemish SCS thread. Going to watch that for a bit and see what pops up.

 

Well SOB...my APRS was already setup for OSM this whole time ha. Redownloaded all that shit for nothing.

Of course i didn't know that because my dad just put it in Frank. But now at least i know wtf is going on. Always had the full map too. Which explains how i was always able to see a map

So Ben or Mike @m3bassman @Digiratus

When you have multiple maps, how does that work if they all have to be named aprsdroid.map?

Or does the name no matter and you just change the file reference in the app every time to...idk..montana.map or wyoming.map ect.

 

gotcha. Cool. Im good with the one big US map. But will still want to add canada.

 

@BossFoss you're welcome to test fit my wheels and tires to see what a 295 75 16 on 0 offset and 4.5 bs fits like. Could help rule out that option haha

 

Ha! be interesting to see anyway
