Colorado B.S. Thread

Don't know, maybe. Possibly. Doubt it though. It's a pinch right next to the rim, almost imperceptible. I've been losing air daily since the last run up Bunce. I did hit a rock ledge hard, that must have been when I pinched it. No bulge at all. I only found it because I poured soapy water on it to find it. Tiny bubbles.

With the cold weather, I haven't had time to do much other than fill it and go. I finally found the leaky spot a few days ago. It's made several trips to Denver and back in the meantime.

 

This is where having an OCD disorder really sucks.
I have the warranty on them. The tire is covered.
4Wheel Parts has the tire waiting for me, I just need to drive down and get it.

I can't handle the thought of one tire having all that tread and the other three being close to 50% worn down.

 

OCD meds are finally kickin' in.
Since I have nothing going on today, I'm off to get the new one mounted.
I'll post pics of the new versus old tire wear.

 

That would irritate me too.....

Im getting my ECGS bushing installed today. Ill be glad to get rid of that vibe..

 

Have them dunk it. May have compromised the steel belt which could affect the bead geometry. Cold weather played hell on beads & it may not even show in a dunk tank when vertical pressure is unloaded when removed from the truck. Either way it's not fixable & dangerous especially at highway speeds. If you've got a warranty & a replacement your OCD should be at rest knowing that 1) that's what they're for 2) they have it in stock & you have time and 3) it may save your life.

 

What did you work out on that?

I finally broke down and ordered one yesterday.

 

Evan (a friend of Jace) is doing the install.

 

Ost I looked up the bake and sear method on steaks, like that video you talked about at nordys. I tried it and it was epic, even color/temp all the way through.

 

I don't like bad vibe's either,

Good advice.

So, Here is new compared to old


The damage




Who put that green shit in there?

 

Nice!

It's what I do.

 

Finially finished this dam bathroom!!!! Some of you know what I'm talking about. Time to turn my time to the truck. Bought 50 lbs of welding rod. My fiberglass is still a week out from being done, so they say. Really looking forward to tearing down the truck.

 

Hey everyone... any recommendations on car audio installers around Denver? I'm hoping to avoid the usual suspects like Car Toys or Quality Auto Sound.

 

I wouldn't lump CarToys and Quality Auto Sound in the same sentence like that. I would avoid Quality at all costs because their work is anything but. "Quality Auto Sound; Home of the $1 wire fire!" That being said, CarToys does some very good work, has some great installers and offers a lifetime warranty on labor. What's your beef with them?

 

No beef, just feel like they are a bit overpriced on the equipment side of things. I wasn't sure if there were some other places out there that might be as good or better that weren't as well known.

 

On some of the stuff yeah. You can always find your own equipment and have them install. This is largely what I do these days. Not a lot of money to be made in equipment trying to compete with online sellers who don't have store fronts or employees to pay so they make their money in installation and detail. They do offer deals on some products so it's worth checking out. Their installed price for seated heats was pretty impressive. I forget now what that figure was but having just bought my own seat heater kit online to have them install in what I thought was a pretty good price I would have just gone to them to start with had I known and had it to do over again. Their installations are solid and priced reasonably considering the work they do and the warranty which you can take advantage of at any CarToys.

 

Went up to see Josh at RCI again today.



Boxed in the cross member for the t-case skid.
Should be pretty bullet proof now

 

That looks a lot better.^^^
