San Antonio

I may take you up on that, the old man has it buried out there and its going to take at least another set of hands to tackle it.

 

See the white spec in the distance? There is another one to the right about 200yards or so, that is the one I want to relocate.

 

ALRIGHT! decision made will be going with wheelers 650 springs
Thanks muchachos!

 

Good seeing you man.

 

Have not decided yet, but hen you mentioned yours it made me start thinking about it...I probably need to go sooner then later, let’s see how long this heat wave we are getting this week and I will plan accordingly.

 

Oh it will, as stated earlier wife wants me to hold off a little while longer before rescheduling to see if this all calms down some.

 

What do you mean by firmer?
Just got a little confused Georgia guys are telling me 700 but I’m still not buying it since I’m 2wd and I really don’t plan on adding more weight OR off road every month lol

Morning @Phoosa, @Pizzasteve5717


Good Morning SATX! Who let Monday out again?

 

Suspension is a little stiffer, but i have a 4 banger prerunner (the lightest combo). But i do have steel sliders and bumper and then a full set of aluminum skids. It's not harsh by any stretch, i just wish it would soak up stuff a little bit more.

 

So..... since I am waiting on money to stop being spent elsewhere....
Your recommendation would be the HD version of the OME shock, with the lighter 650 spring? I want my trails to ride luxurious!
90000 Sport shock, with 885 coils, not 886? (I don't want to use a spacer, so that 2" lift has to clear what I am running with 3").

If it was me yes I'd run 885s for the lighter spring rate and then use the softer OME shocks. I have never run that setup personally though, so not sure how much lift you'll get. I think if you need more lift 887s can be had for the full 3" but utilizing the softer spring rate

 

Thats the exact same wood that ill gennerally use. Oak because its hearty and burns a long time. The pecan and mesquite have a really nice flavor. When i smoke a brisket i generally aim for about an hour per pound if meat. But all briskets are different ive noticed on when they decide to be done. Ya really just have to keep an eye on the thermostat and watch for that dreaded stall and i usually Crutch mine and wrap it.

U just power through the stall right, all at 210?

 

Food for thought.... glad I'm on a diet! So, like the 90021 softer shock, and 887 from this list should be about 3". I have the steel bumper and winch, but I did save weight with the aluminum front skid.

• OME 883: 375mm in height, 590 pound spring rate
• OME 884: 390mm in height 590 pound spring rate
• OME 885: 395mm in height 590 pound spring rate
• OME 886: 402mm in height 660 pound spring rate
• OME 887: 400mm in height 590 pound spring rate
• OME 888: 405 mm in height 590 pound spring rate

 

I watch the IT of the meat and will start test probing at 195.
I also have MEATER wireless probes to monitor temp pit, meat IT and can trend / graph the cook.

Yall are a tough group to keep up with. I was at HF on Sunday with a group from SA. None of them had ever been before. Saw the carcass that burned a couple weeks ago. They moved it up to the corner of North Peak and North Pole. I think its yard art now.
We had 1 oh shit moment when a 5th gen skid off a trail & into some tree. Took his winch & mine (mine on his rear bumper to keep it from sliding down hill) to get him out. Rear quarter panel damage but we saved the glass. Ive got video of the climb before he went off and pic of it playing peek a boo in the trees.

 

Was supposed to go but my daughter didn't want to. She didn't want to go to her friends house

 

So, flow, water, flow!



Took a new service disconnect (non fusible, they never go bad), and a rebuilt ground to fix the gremlins, but pump water it did.

Wife even noticed I repaired the foundation wall.
