    Completely agree. The fact that the deal falling through created such a media stir I am willing to bet that Thornton and Lone Tree add some additional back-out clauses to the deals. Cabela's will have to work pretty hard to gain back any city trust for future locations.

    Now back to off road BS. :D

    eh...Thornton jumped through several hoops to get them here and make them happy. One big one included an oil and gas company and rights to wells. Damit...I'm off topic...

    Wheeling this weekend anyone?

    Well that is interesting to find out. I forgot you would have the inside scoop on Thornton. Hmmm I wonder if Thornton and Wheat Ridge got a beef with each other? :D

    Wheeling this weekend what? Who does that.

    Who knows how to wire relays?

    I'm trying to fix my spot lights and can't figure out whats wrong. Relay has power in (from the battery/fuse), good ground, but no power out (to the lights). Its something to do with the switch but I can't figure out whats going on with the wiring.

    I'm using on of those stock fog light switches. It already had the wiring for the little LED inside to turn on (stock wires, I don't know where they go). So I just need to run the wire from the relay to the switch right? But that doesn't turn on the relay. The wire connecting the two has to have power. But I thought the switch already has power (turns on the LED).......yet its not turning on the relay. Do the stock fog light switches have separate circuits for the LED and the switch power?

    So then I thought I would bypass the OEM switch and stock wiring to actuate the relay and connected it straight to the battery (more or less, it went through a fuse) and it actuated the relay. Hurray!! Only the lights didn't turn on....It did have a weak charge coming out of the relay though? So should I just use a bigger fuse? I used a 10 amp when I connected the relay straight to the battery.

    Here's a visual reference. I'm wiring the lights to stand alone. Not triggered by the high beams or anything

    Hello,

    I have a 2007 access cab tacoma with 90,000. My brake pedal was starting to feel spongy lately, so I bought new rotors and calipers to do a brake job. The brakes were not making any noise. Today, before I could get to the brake job my front right caliper started grinding like crazy even when the brakes were not being applied. To the point that the truck was pulling to the direction of the grinding. I think I now have a seized piston. My ABS light came on. I have almost no brakes. Does anyone have a suggestion for a local Denver shop that is trustworthy to help me figure out what happened to my brakes.
