Colorado B.S. Thread

@DaveInDenver Looks like ill be doing in when I get to Denver! I plan to spend a whole lot of time exploring the mountains this winter!

 

To those who have had seized LCA cam bolts.. any luck with getting them out or did you have to cut them out and put new bushings in the LCA?

Mine likely seized thanks to Big O tire who didn't torque them after an alignment and it took me a while to find the clunk... Let water in in the meantime.

@thefatkid cranked on them to align it a few days before the trip which is when i realized they were seized.

It needs an alignment (front tires slightly feathering) and hoping i can lube them up with PB blaster before taking it in.

I know I'll probably need to replace the bushings and sleeves when i get back, but it's not an ideal thing to fix while on the road.

 

Well for the 2nd gen frame recalls Virginia is considered a cold weather state whereas Colorado is not.

I wouldn’t worry too much though about it, I would fluid film the truck though once you get settle

 

So I get the trailer all ready to weld the main reinforcement in and pull out the welder....... and no welding wire.....

 

Don't let @CharlieCafe know.

 

Damnit Chris! Next time pull out sooner

 

Bunch of dam sick-O’s in here

 

what atlas or trail maps does everyone use? i'd like to keep one in the truck

 

I need an adult

 

I would love to help but I just follow everyone like a sheep.

 

Gaia Maps App on my Samsung 8" tablet.

 

I thought you were a Hema guy? I tried them first and their app was really buggy for me so I switched to Gaia and couldn’t be happier. I’m also on a Samsung tablet.

I use Gaia because i downloaded all my topo for it but still use MyTrails to record tracks because it's easier.

 

I drank the kool aid that was HEMA. Then the kool aid ran out and I woke up. Gaia FTW!

 

i was thinking something not electronic ...just a simple book with colorado trails

 

HEMA is like the Factor 55 of navigation. Yeah, it looks cool and gets you some EAF points, but in the end, you wish you would have went with something cheaper and more practical.

 

I use apple maps.... the harbor freight of maps

 

Except that the Gaia Map App costs more.....
