Where are you riding devin? I'm looking to get up there saturday

 

Can't tomorrow, work all day then straight to class til 1030.

 

I'm bringing a couple backpacking stoves that people can use if they need too.

 

thats pretty shitty gas milage i can use a little more then half tank there and back with 3" lift and 265/75 duratracs

 

Ill ride anywhere. But my buddy coming to visit wants to ride Breckenridge.

 

Well thats what happens when you run 285/75/16 mud terrains with some heavy ass steel wheels, and have a heavy front bumper to begin with and then add a winch to it.

 

Ive got an epic pass, let me know if yall end up going, i may meet yall somewhere along the way

 

car pool price = find 3 people to go to the ticket counter with (4 total including yourself) and say you need a car pool ticket and they'll hook you up with a cheap ticket...not all 4 people even need to buy a ticket so even if you have a season pass you can help a brother out and be part of the car pool to get the deal...

 

Motivation to go big on Saturday:

Went there last night for the snowboard competition. It was pretty sweet.

 

Wish I coulda made it, but I'm headed to SIA tomorrow, super stoked!

 

Heard You can get good deals on groupon for the big air event.

 

It was free

You only had to pay if you wanted to be right at the base of the landing. The event's equivalent to VIP. We just stood in the grass in the park and could see everything crystal clear. We were only about 20-30 yards away from the kicker.

 

anyone ever put on an OME lift? Im looking at getting one real soon. im fairly mechanically inclined and can provide plenty of booze, but have never done this before. Im living in an apartment and have basic hand tools, nothing special. any help ot input would be appreciated

 

You wil need more than basic hand tools to compress the springs, unless you pay to have it done.

 

yeah i figured that... there is an ace hardware next door to me, figured id just rent one for an hour or so, assemble the coilovers and return it. then on to the more difficult stuff.

 

I put one on my truck the one that i rented wouldnt fit the springs they were to wide. I had to the grinder to it. If you are getting the lift from toytec they sell the top for the strut just buy it and take every thing for the strut to a big O and have them assemble it they said that they would have charged like 15 for both . This way you can just take old out and put new in this will also save you a bunch of time on the install.

 

Good to know, thanks

 

The first time I did my springs I used a socket wrench and a spring compressor LOL. Would not recommended it but it can be done.

 

Haha that was probably one of the best workouts of your life.
