Wyoming B.S. Thread

No where is it?

 

Huh interesting..

More like a day trip. Those places tent to be more for buggies and stuff. I'd want to explore some more. But looks fun. I spot some ORIs too

 

Yea and south of Casper too

 

Ok so here are my travel plans.

Leave FL and head to memphis. From memphis cut through the BFE of Arkansas and Missouri to I-70 all the way to denver. Thats where the real decision comes in after I drop my cousin off at CU Boulder I head to laramie. Do I head up I-25 to cheyenne then to laramie or take 287 from fort collins to laramie.

I am leaning towards the I-25 cheyenne route due to my truck having an altercation with a pole on 287 once already. Does that sound like a decent and safe route for Friday and Sat?

 

yea should be good. But i can tell you from St louis to Denver is 12 hours or so. Also kinda dull..and a toll in Kansas..not much like 2.50 or so. Denver traffic sucks ass too so be ready for that. Roads could be shitting around Cheyenne and laramie so be ready for that.

damn thats a long trip man!

 

Ya the toll doesn't bother me... I pay in all coins just to empty my coin tray. And I agree with with Kansas being dull. From Kansas City to Denver is the most boring thing in the world. Good news is though I am going to have my cousin withe so I won't be driving alone. Bad news... She can't drive stick so it's like I am driving alone. It will end up being about 1700 miles

 

287 will be shorter but since you will already be on I-25 it's kind of a toss up. and yes, denver traffic will suck. try not to hit downtown between 3:30-6 pm or 6:30-9 am

 

Should be plenty of time for her to learn.

 

Haha yeah. And if she burns up the clutch it'll just give me an excuse for some upgrades.

 

i did see an awesome sunset driving through kansas though. and the windmills are pretty cool. other then that..boring..as..shit..haha

 

let me know man. i'll buy you a beer.

 

this weekend?..hmm...

 

im headed to St louis this weekend.

 

It sucks to have to go back to reality.

 

no kidding..

Reality blows..i just wanna wrench and wheel all day everyday, is that to much to ask for! haha

 

Might be up for a drive up your way Monte this Thursday. My brother is visiting and he wouldn't mind seeing some of the bighorns. Be cool to say hello and see frank your dad home this week? Also my replacement leafs are going on today and pending how it sits after I may need to weld on a small spacer to the bump strike plate so it bumps correctly... Was going to have my local guy do it but if we come up think you could handle a handful of beads?

 

Marc I'm headed home now. Will be back in Powell tomorrow. Head on up would be great to see you. And between me or Monte we can handle the welding. Stop by that ExxonMobil gas station and see if the have any pappy van winkle bourbon. I'll pay you back.

 

Haha! Glad you'll be home man! I'll swing by there tomorrow cuz I got an oil change over there anyways. Just one neck of that burby?

I'm about to get after the springs here. Any good idea on what to use as a solid spacer the bump can strike? I was gonna just try and find some thick stuff and cut a 2x2 inch slab to weld onto the plate...

Edit: ive got some allpoo ubolt flip plates we could cut up, those are pert thick

 

hell yea man! come on up!! welding won't be an issue at all

if not, i have lots of scrap 3/16s and 1/4'' plate we can cut up for you. Plus...we have a new plasma cutter that we might be able to use

 

Perfect! We'll see you boys thursday sometime mid morning before noon id guess. That work for you guys? Got the new leafs on and trying to dry/heat up the shock hoops and stuff to repaint cuz they're rusting like a mofo! At least the wire wheel cleaned em up brand new!
