Pensacola Area Taco's

@ Dusther, Yeah, the more people we get the better. I'm not a member on TTora, maybe you could spread the word over there?

I've never done a toytec lift, but I'm sure it can't be much different than the camburg coilovers we put on my truck last time. Just jack it up, out with the old and in with the new. Sorry, I'm running 265's, but we should be able to help you trim. I'm not doing any stereo work, but I could use a hand with the wiring for the window sliding kit.

Why are you selling them? Going a different route with the truck? You available for a meet sometime next week?


Tuesday the 27th or Thursday the 29th would work best for me... anybody else?

 

Actually I'm just wanting to get the money back. I'm pretty happy with my truck the way it is and I just bought a new mountain bike so I'm spending a lot of money on that and using it to ride offroad





Unfortunately I won't be able to make it for a meet. Work has been really busy lately I appreciate the invite though and hope you guys have a good time!

 

any day Tuesday-Thursday works for me. I will be on Corry working anyway and it should be quiet so i can get out of there for a bit and head down to the Auto Hobby Shop no problem.

 

When is the next meet? Is it this Thursday? What time and where are?

 

I'm good for whenever. I was just suggesting Tues or Thurs. I'm back to work next week. I don't have any mods that need to be done, but I can help anyone else.

 

Same for me, no mods I need done, but I am willing to help as well.

 

@ ILikeTacosToo... Do you need help installing your lift? Chris and I can help just let us know when and where! (PM'd you)

@redrazr... that's a nice looking bike!!

 

Thanks for the offer ands sorry I didn't respond to the pm yesterday. My 1 1/2 year old has been to the ER twice in the past few days for stitches in her head where she hit a table and for a fever of 104.9. She is doing better now thankfully but that took up most of my time this week. I got my lift on with a work buddie late last week (and its awesome) so i don't have any work that needs doin but I'd like to meet up,sometime for sure. Any interest in going wheeling at Eglin? I have to buy my pass for this year still but I think it would be fun. If not we could just meet for lunch or something. How is Monday for everyone? Could meet at pepboys on mobile highway in pensacola or at Corry station auto hobby shop or up in the pace milton area, anything is fine with me. I'm in pace but i can drive.

 

That is a pretty sweet bike! I rode back in college but that was up in Maryland/Virginia. Are there any worthwhile trails around here for a nice bike like that?

 

So I went out yesterday to quintette rd and found a nice little spot (non sure on how legal it was, but there are no "no trespassing" signs. I went with only my truck witch was a mistake. Almost got stuck... took 30 mins of rocking back and forth to get my free. I'm going to try to upload some pics and the video that makes it look like I just drove right out... but that was not the case. Ended up ripping off those stack front mudflaps, but I got out. Then I had to spend like another 30 mins washing off the mud that caked to the front wheels because it threw the alignment off so bad with it all there.

Let me know if the pics work, I'm using my Facebook as the web hosting so it might not let you see them.

Here's the video that makes it look like I just drove right out lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_irOxnabhAM&feature=youtu.be

This is where I got stuck :/


This is a view from the back after rocking for 20 mins


This is a view from the front after rocking for 20 mins


Had to let the transmission cool down


That's the whole I was in, Do you think a lift kit would have prevented those drag marks?


These are some pics of the area

I think the University of West Florida has some good trails... one of my buddies knocked himself out after landing wrong lol

 

Glad to hear she's doing better. Monday is good for me, maybe we could all take a trip to where I was. As for when and where to meet up, the pep boys on mobile would probably be better if someone can't get on base. Here's the address for the Pep Boy's: 4700 Mobile Hwy, Pensacola, FL 32506

What time?

 

I think heading out to that spot you were yesterday is a great idea... but if we are going there, no reason to drive down to pensacola to meet. We could meet somewhere here in pace/milton... maybe near 5 points. Any time monday works. maybe meet at 1100 or 1300 or something. how long do we plan on hanging out? And no, i dont think a lift would have avoided the drag marks, just made the ruts deeper . where exactly was that spot out there? I might head out there sunday to check it out but i think it might be better if i have someone else there so if / when i get stuck i am not out there hand winching myself out for hours alone.

 

There wasn't anything close by to winch to lol, another truck would be able to snatch out the other. I have straps and chains I will bring with us. I vote for 1130. I'm gonna grab a shovel just in-case

 

Quintette Part at 1130 Monday sounds good to me, i will be there. I could bring a grill and we could cook up some burgers if anyone is interested. i will probably bring my wife and daughter (if they want to come). Take it easy, look forward to meeting whoever can make it!

 

I'll be there

 

Checked the weather for Monday and its gonna be cold. cnx the grilling. Eat before we meet or BYO lunch. We'll just meet up and hang out in the dirt for a while

 

My wife and I will be there! See you at 1130!

 

My wife decided to back out when she saw the weather so it will just be me and my truck.

 

Almost there!
