UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Haha, I was tossing out a general feeler first, didn't wanna put the whole for sale speech on ya guys.

But, here's some more info...I put it up on ksl for $1500 for both..which I feel is high....realistically I'd probably take around $1200.

I'm not 100% sure about the bed rack brand as I scored it out of a storage unit for cheap. The tent is branded New Mombasa with a CVT Cover + a new spare CVT cover for it and upgraded tent straps.

 

huh. interested. Price is very enticing. How heavy is that tent?

 

Looks the same as mind with different branding. I think 120-150 pounds is about right. There's ways to mount/dismount it yourself without throwing your back out like the "tailgate flip" method.

Join the dark side, Jin!

 

Couldn't tell you the exact weight...but I googled other tents that look like this design and they range from 120-160lbs. I'm located in Saratoga Springs. Let me know if you wanna check it out.
I also have an IKEA memory foam topper I could toss in that I used for longer trips.

 

I'm going to look at you in like a year and b elike, "Dammit Conner!!! You caused me to spend a lot of money!!"

on that note...probalby need bed stiffeners. Don't you have the total chaos ones? where'd you get them?

Hmmm. I'd be interested in checking it out. I live in Lehi so it's easy enough for me to come visit and check it out. I don't have any time today but maybe...tomorrow after work?

 

Sounds good to me. I can do whenever you’re free.

 

Highly recommend them. I think I bought them from TC direct.

 

ah. i think they're closed for another week. maybe that's why i can't find the "add to cart" option. hahahaha.

 

Sweet. let me double check my timing for tomorrow and i'll let you know.

 

@SDHQ OFFROAD out of AZ also carries them and they're a great seller to work with.

 

ordered. Now we wait...

 

Lol. this month might be my most expensive month.

 

TC stiffeners came in. time to install it! but...i don't have a lot of time. lolol

 

Honestly, they take like 20 mins to install as long as you have the right drill bit size.

The back bed bolts like to get rusty and REALLY not want to come out with hand tools sometimes, so be prepared that that might be an issue. If you do get stuck, gimme a call and I'll help you out with the impact gun.

 

I have an impact. haha. the only concern is the t55 bit i would need. lol. i have the drill bits as well. Just need to find time to do it somewhere.

 

It's fun to follow these discussions because eventually you find one of these jewels. "Need to find time" usually said by someone still working for a living. When you retire those things you could never find time to do suddenly become the priority and you wonder where you ever found the time to hold down a job.

 

Autozone/Oreilly is where I got mine.

 

Yeah, I might have to make a stop there soon.

 

I'm looking to vinyl wrap my hard shell. I hate that it is a slightly different silver than the rest of my truck and I think a contrasting color with a topographic contour line pattern would look pretty cool. Can you guys recommend anywhere in SLC? Sure, I could just google it, but having specific references is much more helpful.

It's a small enough area that maybe I'll even try doing it myself.
