Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

For peeps who run raceline beadlocks did you use spacers behind the ring? I just ordered them because I had a slight angle when torquing the ring.

 

Recorded an accident today on i-680S and didn't think to pull over and give the guy my info so he could use it for insurance purposes. Swung back a little later but didnt see anyone there except the empty Jeep. Little bit of a stretch posting this on here but since its a Tacoma figured I might as well try just in case the person who was hit browses on here and needs the video. https://youtu.be/dqjvKXVNPwM

 

You could call the CHP and let them know you have video that clearly shows the accident.

The double white lines are also supposed to be the same a double yellow and you are not supposed to cross them.

 

I'm sure the Taco owner would appreciate that...I feel like the insurance companies might rule that 50/50 at fault based on damage (and im sure there's not much of a police report, if any) without some evidence to prove otherwise?

 

The double white lines separate traffic traveling the same direction and are the same as double yellow lines. They are illegal to cross. So unlikely it would be 50/50. You can also see how the HOV vehicle crosses without even looking (failure to yield). Might even argue excessive speed. So yeah, I bet even the CHP would like to see that.

 

I was just thinking based on visible damage, he said she said...without evidence I could see the opposing insurance company saying the Taco merged into the Jeep. I was in something similar a long time ago, my adjuster told me if it wasn't for witnesses stepping forward they would have ruled 50/50. Just playing devils advocate...unless the jeep was actually honest and admitted fault, but people are trash so I doubt that!

 

Ya I'll give the local office a call tomorrow when they open up and talk to them. Definitely distracted or drunk to swerve over that far and hit someone like that without braking. Also surprising to come back 30 min later and see no one there with just the Jeep abandoned withought being towed.

 

Vin Scully has died. He was one of those dudes who was around and who you would think would be around forever.

 

If it was being towed, it's possible it might take a while. But who knows? Maybe it was stolen?

 

Ya I have no clue, there was a tow truck sitting on the Northbound onramp just before the accident and a caltrans truck sitting on the southbound on ramp before the accident just chilling

 

Where are people getting shocks rebuilt locally? I’m in the east bay

 

I plan to take my truck/shocks to Milogen (Milpitas) or Shaffers (Union City). Guess it depends on who has availability and when. I'm more inclined to just drop off the truck and let them do it all but last time I took my shocks off and brought them.

 

Beeps off road in Hayward

 

they do rebuilds now? 6 months ago they didn’t!

 

Had my pops record me while doing the DMV course today for final prep for my M driving test on Friday…let’s just say I didn’t realize how tiny the Honda Navi looks under me. Unfortunately, I can’t upload the video but this picture sums it up perfectly.

 

I thought I would never get another pup after my buddy of 11 years was killed by a coyote. Then I met @71tattooguy beautiful Goldie at Usal. 10 weeks old, just took her home. My new wheeling, camping, and fishing buddy.

 

Hell Yeah!! Brother!!!! So cute!! Can’t wait for our pups to meet

 

Thats like when I see myself riding my Grom. Im 6 foot 190lbs lol

 

Now thats a cute pup. Makes me want another up to play with my 2 year old German.
