Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Yeah I figured we would have to wait until the snow melts

 

I'm down for anything in and around Quincy

 

snow is melting. going to be decent weather this week. I have to go out see what has melted in my area.

 

I would love to go playing in the dirt with you guys after I get some tires and finish the lift. I have minimal experience trail riding as this is my first truck, but I learn fast and I'm pretty sure my truck is more than capable. lol. Besides, I have that crawl control thingy knob thing.....bahahahaha

 

Yeah don't worry my truck isn't lifted yet either. Im still working on it haha

 

@RelentlessFab might have some available. I picked these up last week.

 

I'm going to thisnor next week probably, I was mainly looking for stock ones yesterday day so They could hold me off until the flip was ready, but I just used the stock I bolts, torqued them with some blue thread locker, and then after some miles I'm going to retorque and paint pen them for the imbeyween time. I'm going to throw extended brake lines too just to give me some peice of mind..
Might as well do the diff breather mod and change my diff fluid while I'm down there too

 

Anyone know a affordable place to get sheet metal in Reno? My droor in the bed is made of osb wood and I want to make the actual droor part out of sheet metal instead..

 

Dog Valley yesterday 3.27 . I could have probably made it up to the staging area but a huge lifted jeep with snow tires came down and said it was just slush up there and not passable yet... Having gotten stuck up there once, I decided to take his advice and turn around

Going to try Peavine Peak in the next few days. Has anyone been up that way recently? I know the main service road is on the east side of the mountain and that side doesn't get as much sun.

 

So I went through the Peavine access gate at the top of Kings Row. Its looking good up there

 

Did you happen to check out buds canyon at all? Wondering if it's full of run off.

 

Just figured out where that is. That creek is buds canyon!

 

Who's got the tan turd gen in Reno with the bedrack and tent on it? Saw him a few times when I was out there a few weeks ago. Forgot to ask in this thread.

 

disregard.. had question about shock extenders but dug deeper and answered my own question

Peavine is fun right now though

 

Those leafs do the trick dude?

 

Hey folks! I am throwing up the TW help flag! A buddy of mine is stranded in Bishop, CA and needs a front diff for an '03 Tacoma. I created a thread in the Nor Cal forum, but he's really close to NV if anyone can help. He is over 500 miles from home. Here is a link.

I'll throw this in the 775 thread too.

 

Yeah I think so, they gave me an inch more lift, and my ass end doesn't feel so squishy anymore which is nice, will deifinantly help during hunting season.
I still want to get the new u bolts and extended brake lines though because that's all I could think about off road, might as well pay for it to have that peace of mind.

 

Posted in SoCal just in case.

 

You don't need to worry about the brake lines. Lengthen them if you want but you won't droop enough to jack them up.
