Cincinnati Area Thread (Tri-State, Ohio/Kentucky/Indiana)

I’m in Loveland. East side represent. And anyone under 30 is a baby in my book.

 

This, don't count on the silly predator steps for armor like a few guys on here and FB have learned the hard way lol. You need real rock sliders. I also learned the skid plates are weak as well a buddy of mine dented his on snow.

 

When I go off road, I plan on removing the predator steps and using those stupid 5” oval steps I took off as dent protection. Don’t expect them to work as well as sliders but they’ll do better than having nothing there and I don’t care if I destroy them!

 

Most of my family are in Brown/Clermont county. I'm the only Yuppie in Warren lol.

 

I’m on the Clermont side of Loveland. You couldn’t pay me enough to ever live in Hamilton county again!

 

That was literally the main thing I told my realtor when we bought our house. At the time my ol lady was working in Wilmington I told them within 40 minutes of both of our jobs and no Hamilton county lol.

 

I lived in Pleasant Run Farms, over near Fairfield for four years and the cost of Cincinnati taxes, water and the stupid hikes to my power bill for that dumb streetcar were too much. I couldn’t get back to the east side where I grew up fast enough. And now that the kids are in school here I’m going to have to find a place close by once I get things settled from the divorce and can actually afford a new place.

 

Both options will fuck your rockers and underside of your cab. The sheet metal itself that is, because that's what those things attach to.

 

This! Go get a real pair of sliders. Buy a set of 4xInnovations sliders & pay a buddy to weld them on your truck.

Yup!
Got a mystery dent in my lower door and rocker, passenger side, first time to Black Mountain. Had sliders on a couple weeks later. Lesson lernt!

 

Finally made time to have @no mods weld mine on. Now time to go get them dirty.

 

40 myself lol

 

Green Township !

 

Which taco is yours around here?

 

So which one of these fancy new third gens is going to be the next to slap on dirty fives?

 

I've toyed with the idea but I can only swing new tires, not tires & corresponding lift. If it was just cutting required to fit 35s I'd go for it. 255/85r16 KM3 I think is in my near future.

 

Do you have a question?

 

Nah, just too lazy to go 35's. I don't think I'll ever go larger than a 3-4" lift with 33's. But as of right now I'll stay with stock height and 32's lol.
