Idaho BS thread in the PNW

interesting stuff Ben.

Be interesting to see how they do in the long term Brady. Alex seems to not have any complaints with his still.

 

so no desert racing and rock crawling just got really easy.. whats the point??

 

well clearly no fast stuff and yea, the rock crawling you're used to with wheels got easy... Didn't say it was a solution to everything, just said you could go about anywhere!

 

what about mud bogging and sand hill climbs?? i kinda think it would suck in the mud. just saying six legs should be in the truck (me and two girls)not under it..

 

You're right. 4 wheels and 6 legs are the way it should be

 

Hey yall, . Moved up to Boise from Texas earlier this year. Needless to say I'm stoked I sold the wrx for another Tacoma before the move. The mods started when I found the trails. Added sliders, got some new tires last week, basic recovery gear and what not. Ordered a Pelfreybuilt HC rear with swing out. Sorting out lift options and filing for bankruptcy! Anyhow, just wanted to introduce myself. Hope to see some of you guys out on the trails. Defiantly want to join in on a group meet or two next season when the truck is more worthy.

 

I think I am going to go get sushi for lunch.

That not uncommon actually. This one blew up while they were transporting it.

 

welcome from wy!

we are very active an always meet up at least 1-2 times a year for a big trip and Mark is in Bosie with you so im sure you two and Brady even can meet up many times. Lots of people in ID really..

Any tacoma is worthy

 

welcome from boise friend.

Myself and andy are local here in boise, brady is over in poky.

Where are you at in boise? Andy and I are both right around vista and overland. We go wheeling locally at odd times, whenever we can both find some time off that works or if a club is going. We also just go and hang out and drink some beers and smoke cigars and shoot the shit every now and then as well. You are welcome to join us of course and hang out.

post up a few pics of your truck so we can see if we can spot you.

 

Here ya go monte. I took the rack off and I've started finish welding it. Every unwelded seam is getting filled in haha.

 

God damn that was such a fun trip.... Miss you guys.

 

Thanks guys, I live in some apts off State and 36th. Work down at Prestige watersports downtown. Definatly down to hang out and have some beers and what not. Always down for some wheeling although I hope to get to a few more places once I get the lift done. Anyhow here are some pictures of the rig. Added some new ST maxx tires last week and burned on some BAMF sliders would be the only changes in looks

Here she is with my whole life packed inside, my dogs and the GF all ready to move to Idaho


This is the day I brought her home

BHLM


Made this

for this

Random Beach trip

I moved here to make these

Playing in the snow a few weekends ago

 

was it ben.... was it really

 

yay...god..they still..not..purdy..haha

least its sealed now..hopefully haha

Yea i think actually living like in Lander Wy or Jackson or even that same like area but in ID or that corner of Utah is the most ideal place ever. Close to ID, Wy, CO, UT and even MT. Can't go wrong really.

twas great indeed on many levels..

i agree! should like the STTs. My dad runs them on his 08 tacoma.

 

Ill take your word for it..can't say i have been there. I know a couple of cuties that live in Twin Falls though..that place looks cool.

If i could pick anywher to live. Be Powell, Cody, Lander hands down. Powell is nicer to me the Cody because you have the Big horns just a TAD closer and MT..and more importantly..not NEAR the tourist traffic.

BUT cody is pretty nicely located..and if you can score a place up in the South fork..my god you'd never leave. Wish we coulda gone up that way..hell even the North Fork it pretty.

But i like the little CO towns i go through to get to Moab and such..Craig, Rifle, and Meeker.

Ouray..seemed ok. Not sure id want to live there though..idk why..i don't really like ski towns though..just something about them bugs me..not sure why.


oh and i meant to tell you this afternoon. Today on my way home on my bike a Fiat Abrath pulled out behind me and passed me. I was surprised how good it sounded. Wasn't ricer at all. Very deep sounding and pleasant with a touch of turbo whistle. I bet they are fun to drive. Idk why i felt like i needed to tell you that..but just did haha and saw a GTR today..

 

I'll never speak to you again if you get a Juke. Period.

haha

yea..you could always got south west.. haha

 

No

S many better choices..

 

Don't care if it out performs anything. Makes me want to puke looking at it from any angle. Horrible looks.

 

So I have another noob question...

Would it be a bad idea to wire my led bars into my headlight wiring? I figure HID's pull less current than halogens, and the stock h4 wiring is hardly used in a relay setup anyway
