Colorado B.S. Thread

Done yet?

 

The link mounts on the lower left corner of the pic are diy off road. But every thing else I designed myself out of grid paper and foam board. Look through my build you’ll see everything.

 

Thanks bud! Yeah page 71 on my build is when I show drawings and when it all started.

 

He's been running it with foam board and pvc since page 70

 

Just got into the Denver area this evening.
Will be here till Saturday with @Shellshock
If anyone wants to get together let us know.

Ok, So I know there are a plethora of thread on this subject. In fact I have spent a lot of time reading them in the past and STILL I am not sure what to do. So, I thought I would seek some input from the other people here in CO to get an idea of, at least, my best options.

I want a suspension lift. I just bought my 1st tacoma on Saturday - '19 Cav Blue OR, DC. I already have some brand new 17" 4runner TRD/Pro rims sitting in my garage so I want to incorporate them asap as well as some wildpeaks or something similar.

I do not "think" I am going to be doing all that much offroading. With work - school - kids - wife, there is not much time. Maybe a pass here.. there... and definitely some more camping. I think I will end up getting an RTT. So, 98% on road driving. This is primarily for looks and some clearance.

2.5" - 3" is what I am looking for. I would prefer not to spend more than $3k. And, since I know very little about doing this, where do I get this done here in Denver area? What are some suggestions on icon - fox - toytec - king - dobinsons, etc?

Sorry for the length of the post and thanks for any help/input.

 

I ended up going with the Baja pro kit (2nd gen taco though, not sure you can do with your taco). It lifted it maybe an inch and with larger tires it's a great truck/capable for what you're asking about. Also have a RTT. I'm actually looking to sell the truck soon though and build out a sprinter van instead. Finding that I just don't need the off road capability of this truck. Feel free to ping me if you have more questions.

 

Thanks. I will definitely do that here soon

 

Contact the company directly, or possibly @Toytec Lifts will contact you. They have many different kits and do installs to come within your total budget.

 

Congrats on the new purchase Brian!!

We can get you taken care of no problem at all. We offer discounts store wide along with competitive install rates for all of our locals

Give my sales team a call at 303-255-4959 and they will get you full quotes either over the phone, emailed, or in person. If you are ever in the area you are more than welcome to stop by anytime so we can sit down and fine tune any kit to fit your needs/ budget.

 

I went in to their place with this certain kit in mind and after talking to them about what I was going to be using my truck for they introduced me to another kit....for a much lower price, but would still do what I wanted! Yes they lost out on money but they've gained a customer for life and a free brand ambassador.

 

Thanks Murph. I will give them a call.

 

Stolen trailer from my brother's lot off Broadway and Belleview.
It was on the street behind the shop for a customer to grab this am but the tow truck seen at the top of the screen snagged it around 3am
It's likely the only white Evoke around
If anyone has info please contact me

 

Thanks for the tip on Mosquito! We were going to hit it this past weekend but my wife had to go to urgent care

We are OUT for the 21st but will be heading out there (health permitting) on the 27th headed to Basalt and back.

How was the foliage....we missed it last year but trying to see if we need to just do a truck (no camping) to snap some photos.

 

Heard there's a stock F150 stuck and blocking Red Cone lol

 

Everyone is a thief! Sucks. Becoming more like Cali every day....

I just had a $4K bike stolen from my garage last week.

 

I had my DeWalt radio stolen out of my truck Saturday night. Worst part is I need to find one that will run off DC power before this weekend.

 

Damn that sucks!

 

Man I'm gonna miss that thing. That radio was good company at so many campfires this season. I hope the asshole that stole it gets uncontrollable burning diarrhea every time they use it.

 

Goddamn. @Kappes03 I'll keep an eye out. A lot of shenanigans go down in my neck of the woods since the police are stretched thin and aren't always able to come around. Wouldn't be surprised if I see it here.

A lot of weirdness going down tonight here...a lot of cars that I don't recognize prowling the neighborhood and slowing down while passing open garages. This area has never been the best, but crime has definitely ramped up.
