Colorado B.S. Thread

anyone have any insight on the adonea area near aurora? just lookin for input on buying a new build out there.. theres not much on reddit nor google

 

Looks like there are a couple of builders there. Oakwood does not have a stellar reputation as far as I know. They have had some issues with building as quickly as they possibly can and then not being able to properly address problems that owners find after move-in. I'm not as familiar with Lennar though.

Other than that, there is just not much out there other than F-16s from Buckley and 737s from DIA. I have a friend who lives in Green Valley Ranch and commutes to lower downtown every day...

 

I think 4x are cheapest set off the shelf. The legs need to be welded onto the slider but this allows you to make the angle to your liking. No complaints with mine.

 

Teaching mine how to do her oil this weekend. Guess I should make sure she can do a tire while I'm at it.

 

Who was it that had a place to get replacement topper parts? I need a new rear window for my ARE topper

 

For a rear window either take the frame to a local glass store and get a piece of safety glass put in for under $100 or go to an ARE dealer for a replacement for something like $600.

 

Can you measure the length of the main tube for me? Yama is going to get me set up this weekend, I just need to confirm measurements so he can get started. I’m measuring my truck now but als want to hear how long the 4x are.

 

Always a good thing for anyone to know, especially your significant other. Would suck to know they are somewhere you might not can get to and the only thing between them and safety is the simple ability to change a tire. We all take these skills for granted but to someone that didnt grow up wrenching on a vehicle, I suppose it could be intimidating.

 

Thanks. My window was plastic though so the frame isnt' your typical window frame.

Someone has mentioned reasonably priced parts, I just can't find the post.

 

Who has a BFH and wants to help bang on my truck? I just dropped my new wheels off for 32" tires. I'm going HUGE!!!!

 

You have really topped yourself with this post, wore out my dam finger trying to get by it.

 

I'll try to remember, quote me again closer to 6 if I don't get back to you before then.

 

Got any pics of the ends?
Want to leave room for bigger tires but wanna armor it as much as possible.

 

6/18 @CharlieCafe i'll be closer

 

Apparently the 1st Gen Double Cab (short bed) and Xtracabs have the same wheelbase / frame / etc... (I have a double cab short bed)

 

Yepp

 

Shit! Now I need to move again

 

How long are your sliders, @lambo ? Length of the main tube. I'd check Flickr but it's down.

 

Here's a few pictures. I can grab measurements when I get home from work.

 

drunk posts are even dumber than usual posts
