Hudson Valley of NY Thread?

@Dfelly Welcome! I started this thread because I didn't see one for us. There's a lot of good, active guys in the Connecticut thread too.

Like the others, I wouldn't recommend going over 2 or 2.5 inches of lift. The benefits are far outweighed by the downsides at that point. You can fit a 265/70/17 no problem at that point. I'm down in the Greenwood Lake area and could possibly give you a hand with suspension stuff if you need it. I just finished a 2" lift in mine and other than not using blocks to lift, my other advice is to do upper control arms even with a relatively small lift like that. Also, there's a great alignment shop right over the Bear Mtn Bridge that knows these trucks inside and out.

Great! I appreciate it. What’s the name of the shop if you don’t mind me asking?

Yup. Little Bear. Only downside is no weekend hours.

Hey everyone. My old man's place is up in Wurtsboro and I'm pretty much there every weekend or so. I'll honk if I see any rigs in the area!

Newburgh here.
Like @Brownmatthall said there are other NY threads, but I see no reason to not have a HV specific area for discussion.
And @Roody.. Nj has the best bagels IMO

Anyone have a bead on some cheap transportation near Albany? Looking to spend around $5000, but could be convinced to go a couple grand higher for the right fit.

Loved the 3.4 5VZ engine in my 96 T100, went to 300,000 miles before it gave out. Bet it’s even better in the smaller Tacoma.
Also was just near Rosendale last night for an art opening at the Unison Center.

yeah, i've been loving this truck so far! picked it up back in november, been dreaming about first gens for the last couple years and finally found the right one.

re: Unison – sweet! i drive by there frequently on the way to climb at the Gunks, never been in though. looks like a cool place, i'll have to check it out sometime – thanks for putting it on my radar!

Loong Island checking in.

Oh I guess that is not exactly novel; suppose I should find that conversation. Ah well, I try to get up towards Warwick etc semi regularly, so that probably counts.
