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

I'll probably be at the shop tomorrow for a bit working, think I would have time to do it. I'd take a nice IPA 6 pack of your choice or Revision 4 pack as compensation. I'll DM you tomorrow when I'm down there if you want to swing by. I assume you still have the pin?

 

I must have seen at least 4 80's Toyota crawlers being trailered today.

So that's what was happening. I saw a bunch of crawlers headed north on 395 and was wondering.

 

anyone need a rear bumper cover off my 2014 TRD OR with tow package (free)? can take pics if you're interested. figured id try here first before craigslist. note this offer does not include the licence plate lamps or the hitch receiver

 

If anyone wants a looking for a receiver hitch for a 2nd gen to go with the bumper cover @ucdbiendog is giving away let me know....it'd be great to get it out of my garage but I feel bad scrapping it.

Sorry about that. Been stuck in my cubicle so long I forgot how to internet.

 

So this may be a dumb question, but Ive never had this done before.
I just had my taco regeared to 4.88. Just got it back from Reno Driveline and Gear. When I put it in 4 hi and turn, the front end skips around like its locked? Is that normal?

 

On dry pavement? Yep, it should have done that with stock gearing too.

 

can i ask what you paid to get regeared? PM if you want

 

it was 1700 and change....I feel kind of raped on that. Good thing for them I have never done it or else I would have done it myself. I do think I need to get the truck re-aligned now, something just doesnt feel right for some reason.

 

Ok, thanks!! Something doesnt feel right and Im trying to figure out what it is. Maybe its just me.

 

yikes, not something i can entertain then

 

I will say that the truck feels more responsive and peppy.

 

Alright alright....so who here has redone a CMC? I did a nice clean install the first time. Now after alignment I will have to redue it.

A- how can make this not look like crap.

B- I was thinking that a plasma cutter would be a better chance of popping it off vs angle grinder.

C- I like this CMC plate and relocating bracket.

 

Anyone got a recommendation on a good alignment shop? SAWs are coming back from aFe, so I'll need an alignment once I reinstall them. They're just 2.0's, not LT or anything fancy - rest of the suspension is stock (UCA/LCA, etc.). Last shop (in CA) got it to almost 3* caster, which was nice for the ride, but I'd be content with 2* and the usual suspects for camber and toe.

Couple Tacos at pick and pull. 2004 and 2003. Extra cabs, black and white, some suspension stuff still left.

 

That's rare.
