Colorado B.S. Thread

I normally ride Dakota Ridge / Red Rocks for an easy ride and White Ranch or Apex for more exercise. But I want to try out some more trails.

 

Cool, Dakota /Matthews /red rocks are my usuals.

Lair of the bear and buffalo Creek are my favorites in the area, hit those up when you get time.

And if you want more exercise, East mt falcon up and over to LOB, out and back, that's a good fun ride.

 

I see you @Coop68 . Go to sleep.

 

Yeah it sucks. I woke up an hr before my alarm. I might as well get up and head to work.

 

Agreed. Let's design it up

 

Can't let a vet show me up, I'm going bigger haha

 

40's

 

No fenders! I'm down

 

Lol its my phones fault. And or my co-workers birthday party!

 

@TimF
Thanks again for the garage time!

Shocks were swapped out, it appears that the shock extender preventer doohickey that used to be tacked to the shaft at some point became unattached, the leftover spot welds were tearing up the shock seals.

So the old shocks both had the long travel mod as you can see in the side by side picture.




There were 4 of these little spots where the alleged limiter doohickey used to be at.

 

Seems like a poor design...

 

Long travel FTW!

 

Here it is.

 

Your welcome! Let me know when they break again in a couple months.

 

Different diameter lower rod is interesting. How long have you had your old ones?

TimF: "They're all Monroe's with a different color paint."

 

Damn right they are!

 

Installed last June i think.. Old ones have Feb 2015 date on them, new ones are December 15 iirc.

 

Nice Ray! Truck looks bad ass! How do you feel about them tars?

 

Thanks Eric! It's the first time I've ever ran MT on my truck so the little vibe I got was new to me. Not horrible, just new. I really couldn't hear that much noise but my whole truck rattles. Other then that I love them. They handle well on wet surfaces. I'm really excited to see how they do offroad.
