Idaho BS thread in the PNW

Yeah, I've been up for a while. Been at work since 8 just hadn't got on TW yet.

 

its gonna be a busy next couple days for me! Going with my boss to this giant auto parts swap meet to hopefully unload a good bit of inventory we dont want to research and catalog. I guess its the biggest swap meet in the intermountain west

we have a huge box truck full of stuff (stacked about 2 ft high) and we are going to set up today, then all tomorrow sell as much as possible! We have no idea how its going to go, but we got a couple of huge banners, got a debit/credit card reader, ipad stand to use as a POS system. Hopefully we can get rid of a bunch of stuff! It will be pretty fun though, thats for sure.

 

I thought you worked at Fredmeyer or Albertsons

Sounds awesome though! Find me a 50T leaf pack and some 18" bypasses while your there

 

18''??? sheesh haha

 

Yeah. They are going to be straight up and down with the axle because my toolbox is in the way. Besides they dampen better straight up and down.

 

How much travel you going for? Most people running 16s and getting 18" of travel..

 

I do both. Grocery store pays my bills, auto part distribution is my extra play money

 

Yeah if they are angled forward like most are you can get away with shorter shocks. Logan pulls 19" with his 18's straight up and down. If I got with the 50T pack I imagine that 18"-19" would be the most I could pull. If I get a custom Alcan pack I could maybe achieve more. Some of the guys with the DMZ and Giant SUA kits pull 20-23".

If linking didn't involve moving the fuel tank and all that I would probably just 4-link it but there is a lot of money involved to go that route...

 

Harmonic Over tones + lots of distortion = cool haha

i listen to some metal.

Pretty sure Between the Buried and Me album Colors is one of the coolest albums i have ever heard.

 

I wouldn't let a tool box get in the way of saving a tad on shocks..haha if you buit the bed cage right you could mount a box between the shocks. Might be smaller but thats what id do.

50Ts are cool, but have heard they cost an arm and leg now. Ill either do Deaver H70s or custom Deavers.

 

I think engage told me $700 or $800. I estimate the custom Alcan pack will be about $1200 but that would include orbit eyes so I could squeeze out a little more flex in the rocks

 

Ben I love BFMV

 

Yep

 

i would NOT run obrit eyes on a LT truck..fuck no. holy sway. Thats got bad idea all over it.

not surpised there..haha

there is good stuff, you have to dig for it now though. Great new group played at the concert i went to. can't remember their name though..

but yea..too much boom boom boom boom wa waaaaaahh wass pewp pewp music

 

They run them on their race truck with no issues. Batman was the one that recommended them to me as well. He helped work on some of their truck with them. Obviously running orbit eyes on both ends of the leafs is a bad idea but just running them on the rear shouldn't cause too much instability.

 

on the metal topic. I'm not a fan of screaming but this song has some awesome drops and decent guitar stuff (sounds bad on laptop speakers...). New stuff from Born of Osiris... Good friday jam lol
