Colorado B.S. Thread

Some how all this is bring this old joke into my head:

Patient- "it hurts when I do this"
Doctor- "Then don't do that"

If you have 4X 35" tire you can do this troubleshooting

 

you my friend need to invest in

A. hi lift jack
B. compressor

what are you going to do when your on the trail and need these things buddy?

 

If you have no idea what happened, then you shouldn't post ^ cause that post is not really at all accurate or relevant to the situation.

 

Goodness

I do need a compressor.

I have a hi lift jack. I've done a fair bit of wheeling and the only time a hi lift has been called upon was when there was a boulder stuck in the middle of Kane creek, and we all tried to move it out of the way with our jacks. Didn't work.

 

DONT BE AN ASS when all were trying to do is help you out buddy!!

you can use the damn hi lift jack to jack up the side of your giant ass 35's and then swap the wheel to the other side so it has everything to do with this situation

 

If only I was still storing Monte's here. I'd have given you a screaming deal on one.

 

I was referring to co mtn Steve and his joke, not you.

Next time I am home, I'll try to get out the hi lift and see what I can find from swapping the tires.

 

Ok, so my understanding the cause of your "wobble" is most likely 1 of 2 things

1) Tire/ wheel issue
2) Drive train issue

If you swap this tire to another location, you have now narrowed the possible problem to 1 based on this outstanding advice

 

Noah, they're merely suggesting that you rotate the tire's to either front and back, or, just swap them side to side on the rear. Just to see if the rim is bent.

The tools for this you should have in the truck regardless of mall crawling or trail running. You will need to change a tire someday in the middle of nowhere.

 

I understand. Thank you guys

 

Thanks Sean, I should just stop with the troubleshooting posts because they always seem to turn into, "kids these days" , or just shit storms about a lack of something. Whatever.

Looks like Ill be swapping the tires with a hi lift. Hopefully its the wheel and not the axle.

 

Just make fun of Brett if you need to.

That's what I do and it always makes me feel better about myself.

 

I have a hi lift. Just not my preferred method of changing a tire

 

I can self report myself for poor word choice and the always present terrible sense of humor.

 

meh, just another day on the interwebz.
I need both front wheel bearings and my timing belt replaced, I have the tools and the knowledge to do both jobs. What I am lacking is the ambition. I like working on other people's piles more than my own it seems.
Already made an appointment with my mechanic for the end of the month
