    There is a shop in Burlington KY does really good work with alignments. It's called Steele's Hometown Tire. They have a shop just down the street that does spray-in bedliners and installs lifts. I have see diesels with 8 inch lifts and 40 in tires come out with great alignments. I had mine done there and it was point on the first time.

    When it comes to 5 lugs I'm a little clueless as far as wheels are concerned.

    no biggie, i was asking for opinions on the looks.

    that's what i was thinking. everywhere i look it seems like the thing to do is have black wheels. it seems so boring to me.

    i can't find a great pic but this was what i was thinking. my dad had this exact truck when i was 4. so many good memories.

    [​IMG]



    the best price i could find on the rims i photoshopped on was 171.95 shipped! can't beat that price. i did search and no one has them, i couldn't even find a mention if they had been tried. it would be nice to have something unique...

    ^ Did a great job, I would have never guessed it was photoshopped. I really thought that was on your truck.

    Anyone going to Yonder Mountain String Band tonight in Covington?

    If you like bluegrass, folk, country, or just good fucking music you should come! These guys are amazing!

    i had never heard of them until now. i really like their sound. it's so hard to find a good group that sounds great doing acoustic sets. i am going to listen to more when i am not at work.

    FYI/related: my uncle just released his first solo album. he's been playing for years, but finally decided to do his own thing. http://www.clarkewright.com/Clarke_Wright/Fiddleride.html

    Yea, def check them out, songs I like are 40 miles from Denver, Casualty, Half Moon Rising, This lonely Heart, Left me in a hole. Just to name a few...

    Yea I do on occasion, I live literally three blocks from it, so I've been there plenty lol. Brothers is newer, and pretty cool to grab some beers. They have decent prices. Its more sports bar oriented. They have a Badass outside patio with a fire place. Arnies I hate. That's where all the Cha Chi's go to hang with their flat bills and baggy jeans, not a fan but you may like it, not sure what you're into. J. Hall is cool, they usually have decent live music, and their is always a cover to get in which sux. Hofbrauhaus is a must check out. Huge beers, usually packed to the gils with buzzed people. and you can stand on the tables and do the chicken dance lol. Its a fun atmosphere tho. Theres a new bar called Bulldogs, never been to it, seems sports bar oriented. My ranking of the levee bars are

    Brothers/Hofbrauhaus - these place are usually packed.

    Claddaghs Irish Pub very chill you can sit have good beer and hear a conversation

    Southgate house for live music

    Bar Louie for drinks/food - decent prices

    J.Hall for live music - cover charge

    Gameworks - cheap foods, cheap beer, and pool tables

    Arnies is way down on the list.... They just play rap music all night long, more of a night club scene

    I pretty much agree

    Brothers is a great place, especially in the summer. Its non-smoking so your dont reak when you get out of there (I'm a smoker). Drinks specials in the summer are awesome! This is where I go most of the time.

    J-Hall has some great bands, but I hate paying a cover anywhere(sometimes my friend get us in for free)

    Arnies is kind of a last resort. I do know one of the bartenders so I can sometimes get free drinks but its usually packed and I hate people bumping into me all the time.

    Hoff- Great place, HUGE HUGE beers pretty good prices, awesome outdoor area in the summer.

    Riverside Four (only open in the summer on the river) Great cheap burgers/great live bands cheap cheap food/beer. On the river and can park your boat and walk in

    Manhattan Harbor(summer)- Great live bands inthe summer, cheap beer/food

    Never been to these places, where are they exactly?

    Have you ever gone to the LBYC? Ludlow-Bromley Yacht Club? Its pretty fun, basically a bar on a barge on the Ohio. I like to go there during the summer time. Also, there's another marina in the bellevue area, watertown i think?? Its fun too!


    Bring it on warm weather!!!!!:D

    yup courtesy of summit racing. i plan on it, just this time i need to save up instead of charging it. it should only take a month or so.

    and i stumbled across this as well. it looks like the blue and red stripes are easily removed...

    LBYC is great. The music is good/loud. That place is hopin on the weekends. Sometimes I cannot find a place to park my boat it is so packed. We tend to go there after watching the fireworks after the reds games. I think Watertown in Bellevue is now called Manhattan harbor. Friends of mine have a slip there. Riverside Four is in Dayton KY, just about 5 min up river, on route 8. Its a lot like LBYC, a bar on a barge. There is nothing high class about any of they places which is awesome. It nice being able to park your boat and walk in w/ a swim suit/shirt on. If you like the music from J-Hall, Riverside has alot of the same type of live bands. I'm pretty much a river rat in the summer. I spend all my free time at either of these places.

    Can't wait for summer!!!! This warm weather is teasing me...

    Where at?




    Edit: Bull Dogs is 18 and up. If you like them young go there. FYI.

    So basically, Cant get anyone to let me borrow their quads. Lol.

    So I said screw it, so the girlfriend and I are headin down to Cincy area to go look at a 07 Honda 400ex with lots of stuff done. Low hours. Ive been wanting to buy one anyways. And she said she would throw in halves with me. So Im like, lets go.

    But on the quad thing. I have two friends with quads that would like to come to the meet... just not sure how you guys feel of friends of friends. Didnt want to over take the farm. So thoughtd id ask before I told them a deff answer. It your not gonna hurt my feelings if you say no.

    But they would just like a new place to ride kind of thing and meet some people.
