Nova Scotia BS Thread

In the area I circled. There are 2 ways in but I only remember one. If you go straight up bishop mtn rd there is an entrance there but I don't recall where.


I haven't been on all the trails there but the ones I did were pretty tame (back when I had my 2wd Ranger) there's a nice mud hole to hit up too. Last time I was there would have been easter weekend almost 5 years ago and there was still some snow in places.

 

Time to CSI this place

 

Thats a fun little trail. to deep right now though made it in only about 20 feet last time i went through it. very very very easy in the summer though. Lots of trails around here soon we can go out for a run scotts bay, aylesford, greenwood, new minas! windsor lots of options!.
also was wondering im getting my frame replaced in a couple of months anyone will to purchase my weld on sliders I have to take them off for frame replacment. custom made! work great for double cab long bed with kickout (works great on rocks) and easy access to the bed!



they have weld on plates on them as well now. best offer! cost about 400 to make.

 

Did you make those?

 

Yes i did with a little help from autocad and a friend with a welding/ bending shop

 

I'd love a set but the dclb are too long

 

If only they fit the dcsb. After i start getting some money again ill take you up on the grill offer though.

 

we can probably modify them pretty easily to shorten them up. also what are you doing today. got laid off and want to blow off some steam wheeling even if its a slow process ?

 

That blows dude! Sorry to hear that

 

Doing them rimsss

 

Those gold or black?

 

You're the third person to say that hahaha

 

What did you paint them with? Primer type?
Did you do inside the wheels? (Behind the spokes)

 

I sand blasted them, for the most part. The air line didn't have a dryer on it so it gummed up the blaster pretty bad, I used self etching primer and rattle canned them. The hoses on the blaster were really stiff so it was hard to get the inside of the spokes, so I sanded them off and cleaned them up the best I could. I was thinking about painting it black, but I want to get the tires mounted and on the truck! Getting impatient!

 

That self etching primer is expensive as hell.
Watch when you get the tires mounted that they dont scrape the shit out of the new paint. I had to touch up a couple spots every time I had tires changed on my prelude. (which I painted bronze)

 

I was going for bronze with mine.. but they turned out a copper colour. I'm going to get dad to mount them backwards so they won't touch the outer lip!

 

They look good man!

 

Thanks! I can't wait to get them on and see how they look

 

Had the bed loaded with 1300 pounds of laminate.

"Hey Mitchell can you come to Home Depot and pick up some laminate for me?" -my aunt
Of course I said yes, assuming it would be a couple bundles. Little did I know she bought an entire pallet of it!

 

Ahh the family member with a truck will get ya every time.
