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

Awesome! Glad it worked out with the timing of me coming through Reno and all!

 

So is the limiting factor my shock then? It just makes me nervous and it's one of things that would suck to happen far away, maybe I'll jack it up on one side and see how close they get to stretching

 

Yeah the timing was perfect, it probably would of been a while until I picked up a set but I couldn't pass it up, one question though.
When I was reinstalling there was no pre drilled hole or anything to remount the parking brake tab, how did you connect yours back? One of the shackles on the stock pair had a hole for you to put the bolt in.

 

Most likely the shock but you took the words out of my mouth. Jack it up and see

 

I cut mine off, not sure what other people do?

 

I guess I should check before I spend an un-neccasary $70 bucks haha

Thinking of doing the diff breather mod and changing out my diff fluid when I do the u bolt flip, what parts did you use for your diff breather?

 

Huh, so your not worried about the cable contacting the wheel?

 

I used fuel line and the two Toyota parts called out in the breather mod thread. Something from a Camry if I recall correctly.

Not really, and haven't had issues yet. I know someone people have relocated the cable.

 

thanks for answering all my questions everyone haha

edit: @RelentlessFab U bolt flip kit ordered
I need to stay off this site so I stop spending money
Not for my toyota, but i'm looking to swap out my motor in my Subaru sometime this summer and was curious if anyone had access to a motor lift that I could borrow for a few days, i'de hate to have to buy one myself for a one time use, I can trade beer or something as a rental fee haha
not urgent just gaining options ahead of time

 

Has anyone considered checking this out?

It looks like fun and its only a 3 day trip.

 

O yeahhh that looks amazing. I would def be down to do that.

 

I've got a hoist you could use. I've swapped 2 engines with it and it's worked great.

 

Rad thanks man!
It won't be anytime in the near future but hopefully if all goes to plan about mid summer!

 

Headed down to the outskirts of sparks for a month or so. I went through the Black Rock a long time ago. Anyone have any camping or decent priced places to stay? I will be looking for a good tire shop and Ome distributor as well.

 

Went out checked the snow on the trails up in truckee, still a decent amount out there. Maybe in an other week it will start to go away. Lots of water should make for some good mud holes

 

Theres a discount tire in Sparks. OME, I'm not sure. Looking for a shop to install and all?

 

Yeah since I will be traveling for work when I have the time to lift my truck. Not a must though, would like to get out and have some fun as well. If you know of any fun spots to go.

 

Is the RT picture our banner because we're in the south west section? wtf. We need a high desert section with a tumbleweed.
