UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Being that it is currently mounted to my wall it would be easiest if you could bring your coilover here. Does that work? I am around most weekends and most evenings after 6:00pm.

 

I can bring the whole truck, would that help?

 

We would need to remove the coilover but that works. Message me and we can work something out.

 

So my buddy @Quadabaum is coming to Utah for the memorial day week. Need some ideas on where to go in the Moab area. We wanted to do black bear and imogene but they will probably still be snow covered.

Was thinking Lockhart basin but we need enough trails to fill the whole week.
Thoughts?

 

Utah members with Bilstein or Fox shocks, how does the finish hold up to our harsh winters with salt overloaded roads?

 

Bilstein shocks are Zinc coated which helps. In my experience they will lose their shine but will not rust. My limited experience with Fox shocks was not a great one. On my Tundra the bottom eyelet rusted to the rear shock bolt. It took a lot of cutting and a couple of hours to remove.

This year I coated my 8100 rear shocks with Boeshield. I am waiting for warmer weather to remove them and clean them up. I am curious to see how well it worked. I also coated my front 8112s but I am getting them replaced under warranty.

 

LOL! Stack. In the pic it looks like you’ve stacked two quick fists, which is good, gives me ideas.

 

I did stack two sets of quick fist because I will mount my shovel there as well.

 

Roger. When I looked at the mount Relentless made, it looked like you could stack two quick fists and your pic confirmed it. It’s all good. Thx.

 

I def may be interested in the assembly as well. Let me know price if the other guys don't work out.

 

@BOMBS did the bushing fix your vibes

 

I'm not a 100% sure yet. There's a significant drop in vibration to the point where it's even more difficult to tell if it is or is not coming from the bushing/cv axle area. I think more driving is needed for a through review. The majority of the ride home was on the freeway doing 85.

 

When you get a chance, let me know what you think about the bushing.

 

I need to do it still if I could borrow it sometime?

 

PM @Oscar I he has the removal tool.

 

Sure. Shoot me a message. Im up in Logan but get down to Ogden fairly often

 

I went this route to mount Quick fists for my axe and shovel. Real easy and cheap. Still working great.

 

Look up @Benson X 's writeup.

T nuts and some 1.5inch flat stock auminum plus some quick fists. Held up for 3+ years now.



Mounted my jack handles on the other side with the same method.

 

What are 3rd gen OEM headlights (with the DRL) and tails going for these days (from an OR)? I realized I have both sitting in my garage and I probably should sell them.

 

I'm not sure how much people are selling their stock OEM headlights and tail lights, but I am willing to trade some stock OEM suspension parts for your headlights.
