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

Anyone recognize this guy?

 

He did a good job of avoiding identifiable features like faces & license plates. I'll keep an eye out for him

 

I hate thieves more than I hate trappers.

 

Does anyone have any recommendations on a good shop with a frame rack? Had an appointment at 8am this morning at caliber collision so me and my girlfriend drove down there (they told me I would be leaving my truck so we took two cars) and at like 8:15 someone comes out and tells me they won't be able to do the work today, and that there work for insurance companies takes priority over out of pocket customers. He said he was going to call me tomorrow and let me know IF they can get me in in the next couple weeks or not. Anyways would rather find another shop after that situation if possible.

 

Ill keep my eye out for that truck.

 

I might need a Vegas to Reno and hold in storage for a week.

Dropped my truck off at Ayres this morning, called me up and said both front wheel bearings need replacing - about a thousand after a simple trip to get tires put on and alligned. NO SANTA THIS YEAR

How many miles do you have?

 

still under 110k.

 

1k to replace wheel bearings??? Wow. I need to get a press apparently.

 

I went in for alignment and get some new tires i had put on, maybe $100 or so. The rest is i guess parts and labor for the bearings.

 

That sucks. If you ordered a prebuilt set you could have done them in my garage for free. Could have saved some $$.

 

Thanks dude, bummed it got tossed on me, but thats the way it is. I figure this is Karma for not caring for my vehicles in the past.

Guy said the front suspension was super stiff and suggested checking for spring retention. Said he was trying to get things to articulate but they barely budged. I couldnt tell a difference because this is my first truck, but i believe it lol. After telling me about suspension stuff he gave me an earful about this local dude who is the master of everything off road, and sang many praises - Hands me a card for @RelentlessFab I have no money left but when im back on top ill head that way!

 

I think I've heard of the guy before!

 

Been out in the rig as much as work and family allows. Been doing a bit of coyote hunting too.

 

I really like the 2nd pic with the snow!

 

Hey bud! Thanks, I was hoping for more snow, no such luck. We got a good bit out here last week, but I was on call for work, and it was busy. I spent all weekend in my work truck.

 

Hey fellas. Anyone doing anything tomorrow. Me and the woman are up from the Bay Area. And we might find a trail near us. Spanish spring area.
