UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

What sort of mount are you using for the bumper to put the lights on? I second wire loom or using a wire type that has the wires together or contained like trailer wire, etc.

For the wire loom, using a small box end wrench to split the loom and run the wire through is a massive time saver (and prob a finger saver, that stuff can be sharp)

I use quadplex brake cable for most of my stuff that isnt massive amps and can be used to do multiple runs at once: https://www.delcity.net/store/Quadplex-Brake-Cable/p_818455.h_818456

 

Thanks for that tip. I just have some Baja Design mounts that came with the lights. Will be mounting them on a BAMF hybrid bumper that has built in mounts on the bumper. Really want see how you run the wires from the bumper to the battery/spod.

 

Up behind the grille, through the hole between the headlight and core support, to the battery

^ this. Nothing fancy about it.

 

There's a specialty shop that only does CV axles?? I love it.

 

Hey y’all I’m moving to SLC soon and wanted to see if any of you in the area play hockey? I’d be looking to start a beer league team with TW members for any level if enough people want to play hockey

 

i haven't played ice hockey since i was in middle school. I know of previosu co workers who play in a local league around them and i've seen local leagues around. i'm sure you can find something somewhere!

 

Welcome! Where are you coming from? It’s been a while but I do still have all my gear. Lots of leagues going on at various rinks. I’d be surprised if there are enough Utah TW hockey players to get a team together … will be interested to see who else is out there.

 

I’m coming from Norther NJ I actually just had a game tonight. I’m definitely trying to join a team/ league when I get there. It’d definitely be sweet to get some other people from here too but I’m down for any leagues you guys know of. And how are the leagues here play wise if you know?

 

There’s a pretty good spread of leagues depending on the skill level you want to skate with, mostly division 2 through D4 from what I know. If you’re on FB drop a post in Utah Hockey Players to get a jump start.

 

Whut's hockey?

 

Went to Moab last weekend. Camping was a bit cold outside the fire, but didn't hardly see anyone.

On another note, I have taken apart my front end to get my arms powder coated and I will put in new bushings. Once I get the truck back together and detailed, I will unfortunately put it up for sale. I have another project in the works and I don't have room to have three vehicles.

If anyone is interested in a 2011 TRD offroad (128,xxx mi) , V6, 6-spd Manual, with long travel front and rear, PM me. Ill formally create a post after the truck is detailed. Just putting feelers out now. I would prefer to line up a buyer without posting on KSL and dodging all the spam calls/ texts.

 

ooh. pretty truck. good luck with the sale!

Isn't the new ksl messagin system supposed to solve the issue of spam calls/texts?

 

It's kind of weird to use. But maybe it works. So far I've only used it as a buyer.

 

Thanks.

I haven't used KSL to sell stuff in a couple years. So maybe its better?

 

Not sure. I just know it's a new feature as of a few months ago. Haven't used KSL to sell something in a while.

 

yeah it does, i've used it for a couple things and makes it a lot better.

 

Anyone getting anything for their trucks for Christmas? I might do some new led fog lights and hopefully have enough money saved up for 285's (tires have gotten insanely expensive....)

 

no joke. i need new tires very soon and i looked at my old receipt compared to what they're selling for now. jeeez. another 40 bucks per tire.
