New Mexico Owners BS Thread

Ok I am officially excited again.






and heres a pic of an nice day on the mountain...nice day to get frostbite....

 

Awesome, Abe. More shit to sit on your shelves collecting dust. Were did you get the dakars?

 

Heyheyhey...those dont fit on the shelf....shelves are too full....lol.
they're on the floor in the shed... right in the way. so I Gotta get it together soon. actually I will pm you cause I think i got everything. I just have to figure out if its too much work for one weekend, or if you even have time to help me right now.

I got everything from Wheelers offroad, and he gave me a deal on some steel brakelines. Toytec has the discount, but wasnt any cheaper, and the guys at wheelers are very friendly, and answered all my dumb questions, so I went with them. Shipping is a bitch...either from Oregon or Colorado...

 

I don't like toytec. They've got a lot of attitude. I pretty much won't buy anything from them anymore. Wheelers is great. Nice guys and good prices. I ordered something from them that was more expensive than toytec. I told them I'd rather order from them out of principle and they ended up matching the price.

Pm me

 

Word..that was exactly my experience. I will pm you in a while when I get a couple charts written.

 

Sure do. I either shoot at Calibers off of paseo and 25 or out in the puerco. However I kinda have the advantage of getting paid to go to the range and shoot. I usually go to one of our two ranges and for the most part I get all the ammo I can shoot. Next to one of our ranges they have a civilian range that I take the wife to shoot at. It is fun and all but there is rules about how long you can shoot.

 

Calibers is an indoor range? I do alot of shooting and moving drills, I don't know if that'd fly or not... Are there bunkers or places where I can drill like that?

Or, is there a spot in the way out desert where people and cops dont go?

 

you can go to white mesa, its BLM land so its legal. Ive run into blm cops out there and they just told us to be safe and pick up shot gun casings. is is pretty much impossible to shoot up on the mesa where all the bikers and hikers are.
There are a lot of berms and canyons to shot into. Its a pretty cool place you can make a whole afternoon of it!

Well i guess i let my secret shooting spot out, don't tell anyone or everyone will shoot there!

 

Will do. i wont be able to purchase a new gun til the glock is sold

 

Yeah man, I'm sorry for the lead on. I'll spread the wortd though.

Lips are sealed.

 

Hieu, have you looked art trade-in value? I think you wanted $500 right? Ask the local shops what they'll give. I recently traded a glock at my shop and got $400 for it. That was their initial offer. I probably could have haggled for more but I didn't because I was already getting a good deal on the gun I was trading toward.

Its a little less money but its instant and a lot less hassle.

 

dom, i dont have the taco with me this weekend i left it parked up north so ima be rollin in the fj, well tomorrow eve i will pick it up maybe we can work something out....

And HELL YES the headers on the V6 are worth it! the sound the produce is sweet oh and the performance gain is a bonus!

and blender maybe you can mod your prius like this:

 

Whoa no way! i shoot out there too! i mean there's a good number of people out there on the weekends but i wouldn't expect a local member to be out there too haha we really need a shooting day..

haha no worrys man, thanks!

I was suppose to go around town today to get some offers but i got my niece with me and her parents dont like her being around guns..very sad news but i'm still trying to slowly work them into the pro gun group

 

I have a 2wd TRD access cab and i am looking at a small lift for my truck and i was going to use the camburg 4in spindles and whats the best way to lift the rear without effecting the ride . Would a block work or are the rear springs to soft for a block that big?
Thanks ...Are there any meets ?

 

Hello! spindles are a good way to lift so that checks out..but for the rear you never really want to use blocks..they tend to make the leaf springs sag much fast than they already do.. i would say go with a new leaf pack..but thats expensive unless you wanna try out the all pro 3inch leaf pack.. they are ideal for offroading but will lack in the tow/haul area..

As for meets i dont believe there are any..since school and work are pretty much in the way for most people

 

Cough cough heui cough cough never shows any way even if there is a meet haha jk man, I know lets do a mod day or something ish lets have it at anthonys

 

lol.... that is true.... heui is yet to show up to a meet....

 

lol i'd love to. only problem is when you guys have meets i'm either working or at my parish helping with the remodeling...so i gotta put priorities first

 

Come on, Hieu. I've even been to a meet and I live 2.5 hours away.

Welcome, Stuie.

 

really? lol you have some dedication lol it's complicated for me since last year my father was the parish president, which required alot of me helping the church with small things, now this year my god father is the parish president and i still have to put in a helping hand..i never knew how much work a church had to do during the weekend just to prepare for mass.
