    Did some exploring down Alamo Road since I had the day off. Nothing difficult but a lot of cool scenery from a dry lake bed to some random sand dunes.

    It's telling you that the area down that road is used by the Air Force as part of the airspace for the Nevada Test & Training Range. I didn't continue down the road of course.

    :wave: I saw the Christmas tree burning party on IG, looked fun! Main reason I am posting is that I may have some work done on my steering rack (I need new bushings) in Vegas and may need an alignment afterwards. Anyone have any suggestions on an alignment shop somewhere near the strip(89109 area)? Thanks!

    I went to Las Vegas Wheel Alignment & Brake on s Las Vegas Blvd. An old shop, with some older fellas working there. No frills no BS guys. They did it for $85 no problem and it drives soooo smooth now.
    They prefer to not accept credit cards, and dont expect big customer service but a mom and pop shop that worked well for me.
    If you scroll up they where just talking about alignment shops on this page or the one before

    That's where I ended up a few months ago. Sucks having lifetime alignments but can't actually use it.

    Anyone know where I can get replacement clips... IN VEGAS?

    Like the plastic clips for the grill, etc. That are super stupid weak and brittle. I need some. ASAP!

    Does anyone have a few spares?

    I've got a couple you could have if you still need by Monday night. I just ordered a bunch of them online and they came in last week as I was having the same problem. I'll be in Vegas Jan 14-15.

    That would be awesome. What size did you order, I could probably order some.

    I saw some on Amazon but I'm not sure what size to get

    These are the ones I bought, but didn't realize it shipped from China. 40 assorted plastic clips for $2.36 though and took about 1.5-2 weeks to arrive.

    Can anyone recommend a good mom/pop shop in town (preferably on the west side) for some Tacoma maintenance? Engine work.

    Not for me, but the woman's 2002 Yota needs a few things done, like her valve cover gaskets replaced. Instead of doing it ourselves... she wants to take it somewhere for a check-up and so it gets done right.

    I just got a lift and I have vibes coming from the front diff. I’m thinking I need the ECGS bushing. Has anyone done it themselves, or did you take it to a shop? I’m just trying to figure out if this is something I can install myself.
