Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

So I bent a strut Guess it must be time to upgrade

 

Hope you were having some fun when you did it at least

 

Damn! Yeah upgrade is in order! Maybe even just some 5100's if you dont want to break the bank

 

The top bolt came loose I guess I didn't catch it soon enough

Thats what I was thinking. Or sway a way? I havent heard too much on them

 

Sway a way is Camburg basically.

 

Would they be worth my time?

 

They're a decent CO for sure, but I think you'll find they're 2" body vs 2.5" like the other aftermarket coilovers. What that boils down to is less oil volume... which will let the shock heat up quicker when pushed hard and will then lead to them needing to be rebuilt sooner. Heat is a shock's enemy. Thats why the high-end ones have resivoirs for extra oil volume and extra cooling surface area.
They'll be a vast improvement over stock and a improvement over some 5100's, though they wont be up to the level of the more expensive 2.5's. In the end its up to you and how hard you plan on using them compared to what you can afford, or even the direction you want to go with your truck build up. Go cheap with 5100's, go middle of the road and get better performance and rebuildability with the SAW's, or save and drop big money on some high end remote resivoir 2.5's

 

Ok. thanks for the info.

 

Celebrating IPA day with some Sparks brew!!

 

So im installing a throttle body spacer this weekend. We'll see how that goes. I was also told i need to reset the computer for it to read properly. Good idea or bad idea? If i do how do i go about doing it, just unplug the battery?

 

Should be a simple install. Yeah, disconnect the neg cable as you install and then reconnect when done to reset the computer. Easy peasy

 

Nice

 

5100's and brake kit have been ordered

 

Skidoo and Nate we meeting at the McD's on Robb Dr and what time?

 

Have a safe run guys! Bummed I couldn't go

 

I thought we were meeting at cabelas, but I'm down for wherever. Let me know.

And thanks Owen, should be a good time.

 

Does Cabelas serve coffee? I will need some joe before we head out. So i dont care where we meet as long as there is coffee. Now we need a time
