**OHIO WHEELIN' & MEET-UP THREAD**

I live near Ashland lol

Have a guy in Lexington who I'm sure would want to come. There's a few others from L'ville area too.

 

I like the idea of it being an easier trail. I'm not experienced at all with 4x4 and I'm still making payments, 4.5 more years

Scratches I don't mind so much. Broken shit, yes lol

 

You will be fine and surprised how capable your truck is.

 

Did some maintenance today. At some point got something jammed in my tire bead. Used the high lift to clean it out. Couldn't break the bead with this setup. I really tried. But so far the leak is not there. Hopefully it is a permanent fix.



Also tested lifting via the sliders. Worked as I hoped.

 

Yeah tire beads are a bitch to break. An entire Rav4 couldnt break one of mine lol

 

Oh and how much land do you have?

 

Nice yeah I use my hi lift jack even in the garage because my floor jack won't lift high enough to get my wheels off the ground unless I lift from the axle.

I'm about to slap some rear brake shoes on the old taco, I cleaned all the crap out of the drums and brake assembly at work today and was down to the nub on the shoes. Amazing how quickly sandy water and mud wears that stuff out. Lucky the shoes were only $16 at autobone

 

Haha just a measly 3.68 acres lol

 

Might try this if I still get leaks.

 

That's plenty of room to camp lol

 

Prepare yourself for popularity, good man!

 

That'll have to do, you own a grill right?
But seriously if you want to tag along there won't be any issues, a stock truck will be fine to bring along just as long as it's 4x4. If your THAT close to that area though and don't want to bring your truck I've almost always got an open seat.

 

Any idea why I would be having a vibration in the pedals at 35-40 mph?? I took my truck to my shop where it's warm and got it up on the jack stands as high as I could go and looked around. I didn't see anything that was out of the ordinary but I'm not a master mechanic either. ...

Ready
Set
Go!!!

 

Is it vibes up front? If it goes away in 4WD, it's your diff carrier bearings

 

Yea vibes up front. I'll have to put it in 4wd tomorrow to see if that's what it does. I'll let you know thanks Roman

 

If we need a large grill to haul for meets/meats, I have a big Char Griller grill. It's charcoal only, because I'm a man and all.

More than happy to provide it for use. Just FYI

 

Is there another way to cook?

 

Nope! I've helped convert a gas man to charcoal even.

 

So the vibes are still there in 4x4 but it doesn't seem like it's as noticeable. Still think it could be the carrier bearings?? Also is that something I can fix myself or would I need to take it to a shop??

 

Any of you guys know a good place around here to get some Method wheels?
