Vegas BS Thread!

Morning fellas! Getting rid of some good items (5100's, Toytec coils, light bar, etc). Wanted to give my Vegas peeps first dibs.

Steve, get those bed cleats and we'll make that rail system....

 

I know a Guy that has a bunch of them he might give me some if I ask and I think I'm going to do that bed rail system hopefully this week

 

Need some help Vegas crew. Me and a couple guys I work with are in town for a couple days at a convention. Need a good place to go that is not a dance club. A good bar or sports bar to go to after dinner. One with good eye candy that is not cheesy, if you know what I mean. We are staying at the hard rock, so a close cab ride would be good. Any suggestions?

 

I'd recommend going to the PBR Rock Bar in Planet Hollywood, it's right down the street from you guys and it's usually a good time... Or just go to the center bar in Hard Rock, that place usually turns into a whore fest in the evening.

 

Great idea, see the PBR in our future.

 

I should be out of work by 4 tomorrow if you get the keys and start moving. Shoot me a text if you want help.

 

Will do idk what is going on my mortgage company and the escrow officers are figuring shit out right now they wanted more money at closing and that's not happening hope to get the keys tomorrow stressed out to the max right now

 

It's a nerve racking ordeal. Just be patient. Remember, if you don't agree with something, don't let it happen. You call the shots.

 

carlos or beth -get the lift! that light bar looks cool, but i already have one. beth... also mite wanna invest in that front skid fyi lol it will help with the shrubery.

 

I already PMed the guy. However, I asked him to hold them for me for a couple of weeks so I can get paid to pay for it. So hopefully he will hold them for me...Unless someone buys them for me and then I'll pay you back by the 15

 

Bed bar + light and antenna purchased! Thanks Curtis!

I hope I didn't steal anything you wanted. I told him you may want the lift parts.

 

dont do it or i'll cut you...wait get them for me then I'll pay you ha!!!! I just want the shocks and the coils. I just emailed him thru craiglist hopefully he will respond.

I am just really cant spend that money till my next paycheck.

 

He texted me pretty quick after I emailed. Hopefully he'll hold that stuff for you. It's basically the same lift that I've got, the eibachs are the same rating but his coils are silver instead of mine which are red, and he doesnt have the adjustable collar setup, but I'm extremely happy with the lift so far.


*** Anyone down to run Bitter Springs (http://www.lvrj.com/living/bitter-springs-trail-a-taste-of-adventure-near-las-vegas-81088027.html) on Sunday May 13th?
1/2 Day trip (+optionals near lake mead), Prerunner w/locker friendly, Plenty of optionals w/ more challenging terrain, decent tires necessary.

 

Possibly, depending on when the baby comes. I might need the baby break!

 

Sure, possibly.

 

How does that adjustable collar setup differ in the height. Meaning this set up compared to yours gonna be lower?

Also thats mothers day and my parentals are going to be here that weekend.

 

Thought I'd get a trail run going. There's a bunch of you I've met at mod days (Jay, Steve(s), CARLOS) that I haven't run with yet. This trail is my new favorite, low on the mileage, fun on the trail-scale and nobody knows about it...

The entrance to the 28 mile Bitter Springs trail is located off the I-15 just south of Moapa. The trail connects to the southeast to the paved Northshore Road which will lead you back to town.

I've run this several times, its an incredibly beautiful area and the trail has many fun obstacles and optionals, while remaining 2wd w/locker friendly (barely, dont let the "backcounty byway" title fool you, this isn't for mom's minivan). It's about to be "closed down" by the BLM. The main trail will remain open, but they're going to close down many of the optional side trails. Last time I was out there they had areas flagged for closed route signs, but the signs weren't installed yet. I'd like to get out there once before it gets restricted.

Plan so far is to meet up at the Petro Station on the Speedway Blvd exit on I15 by 10:30am Sunday May 13th. One tank of gas will suffice. Full spare, decent tires and CB required.

Well he had the adjustable snap ring 5100s so your ride height is still adjustable, just less adjustable. It means you have to take apart the whole coilover to move the snap ring which is a royal pain in the ASS, so you need to set it right the first time. If you don't add anything to the front (e.g. metal bummer) and you use the eibach springs, I'd recommend the +1 above stock level on the snap ring, but I'm positive others on the thread will have more to chime in. The 5100 adjustable is a popular setup in the front.

 

Man I dont speak car. I got confused with the less adjustable and pain in the ass to do something else. Ha sometimes I feel so stupid.
