San Diego BS Thread.

HAHAHAHAHHA

 

There's a nut and bolt place in lakeside right off the 67 I can't think of the damn name though they have everything you can think of I just can't think of the name to save my life

 

Hey what can i say ?? Took it to chris's work last night & got it partially out but their 15 ton press gave out when the frame the ram is on started to diamond on us (frame was warping) so stopped that, took it to a friends shop , pressed it out , it was a bitch, "oh, looky here" & sure enough hairline crack at the top of the splines all along the stem, the spindle ?? He showed me where but i wasn't paying much attention was still in shock over the hub...

A def. possibility

time for the almighty SAS, ha! Me & leo were just talking about that, the tipping point on a vehicle with some mileage on it, Am I throwing $$$ at a maintenance thing (bearing could be considered maint i guess) Or is it going to turn into a $$$black hole... haven't decided yet...

never say never jake...

 

I'm betting that its that mud hole i hit half way up Laguna, we've all gone thru it at least once i'm sure.. but someone must've gotten stuck & had to dig out because I'm not shitting that fucker was everybit 3ft deep at the base & I hit hard enough to bounce back out of it, dont forget had to cut the CV's out to get home, not even mad anymore haha, nope , time to twist a top, twist a smoke & call it good for the night.....

 

Doug, with as much 4x4 stuff as you do your best bet is doing a solid axle swap, but in order to do it cheap enough (which really isnt cheap at all) you would have to wait to find the deals and order the parts + fabricate them while you wait.

If you need help finding new spindles and hubs, I will can track down some spindles, hubs, rotors, etc for ya.

 

Howdy guys!
Off subject here but, where's some mild to moderate wheelin in around or close to SD?
Used to mostly just slingin some mudd back home or some moderate trails back home in TN with friends
Been stationed here a year and haven't done any wheelin
Not lookin for anything tooooooo crazy i don't know anyone out here to go wheelin with so don't need to get in over my heard or break somethin to the extent of not gettin home or something i can't fix on the fly.
Thanks ya'll

 

You 4x4 or 4x2?

 

4x4 6in pro comp on 33's
4x2 trails may not be a bad idea since i'd probably be on my own with just the wife till i meet other wheelers out here

 

Bear valley and Pine Valley would be a good little spot to start. Nothing crazy, just a little trail.

Corral Canyon is nice if you've got people with you or your just stay on the loop.

Desert is always 2wd friendly In areas

 

I'm thinking that the hole is probably responsible for the spindle but the crack in the hubs gotta be from the press/pressing that wasn't complete or a combination i dunno .. but yeah if you come across a used hub/spindle for not an arm or a leg let me know thanks alex

Well you can go 8 east to corral canyon for a variety of trails from sunday cruise to I shit my pants..haha but seriously if you go there I highly advise you stay on the loop & not get tempted to hit the off shoots especially by yourself /first time there/ wet & poss. snow as a matter of fact I cant really say you should go there, go to pine valley, its closer & just challenging enough when wet to be fun, go 8 east to pine valley off ramp take a right at the bottom & its right there , decent trail.

 

ok i'll check those out as soon as i get a chance on a free day away or take some leave.
Any have mud or creeks? or is everything here gonna be mostly desert?

 

Yep, it's so-cal.

 

If it rains it'll be mud, if it rains alot it;ll be mud & some creeks flowing nothing big usually

 

haha ya i'll probably stick to pine valley then i get tempted to easy and next thing you know it's "crack pop crash" broken a arm or or oh shiz i'm not moving in this stuff and been in it an hour haha.

 

We had to leave a members truck on the side of Los Pinos~ mountain for 3 days because the weather was bad & wheeling conditions were absolute shit none of us had any business out there pretty cool time

 

One of these days doug...

 

haha ya i know that feeling and how it goes. used to wheel in tellico TN and gatlinburg TN in the smokey mountains and that's some pretty sketchy stuff. Lot's of wrecked and abandoned vehicles there after some down hill rolls and spills. Don't really need it happenin out here too

 

Is this anyone on here?
