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

I would stay far away from installs @ 4wp, and just be mindful of the work you are getting for the price at folbeck. They charged me almost $300 for an alignment.

If you just have font coilovers, rear shocks, and new leaf packs you should be able to do all that with basic tools (no need for a shop or lift) if everything goes smoothly and you enjoy some beers while at it I would think no more than 5 hours or so.

 

Anyone happen to know what road conditions are like in Jarbidge? Specifically around the Marys River access? Have a spike tag that is open until January 5th and Id like to try and sneak out there if I can.

 

Thanks man. Don't have all the tools. And an extra set of eyes is aways good

 

@skidooman might have some info he I think is local ish . Talked to him a bunch when I had my cow tag earlier this year

 

My camper shell will be here sometime in the spring (ARE Overland) and I assume it's going to dampen the already anemic rear tacoma springs. What's the best bet? AAL or just get a stiffer pack? Airbags?

I'll have a few hundred pounds of shit in the bed most of the time plus the weight of the shell.

 

The stock pack is going to sag prematurely with the excess weight of a shell and the AAL is just a bandaid in my opinion. I opted for a full leaf pack.

 

That was my line of thinking as well. What did you go with?

 

I went with Dakars (the older version FWIW) and they've worked well for me over the past 5ish years. I may add some air bumps in the next year though because when the RTT goes on and the camping gear gets loaded into the bed I get into the bump stops pretty easily if I'm not taking it slow off-road.

 

Not really local, although I wish I still lived up there sometimes. My Dad is still up that direction, and is out often.
He said he didn't know about that area specifically but Wildhorse Res. only has about 6-8". Probably count on similar amounts over at the bottom of Mary's.

 

Adams high rollin customs

 

Thanks!

I ended up heading up there Wednesday evening hoping it would be manageable. We were able to get to the Mary's river access / chalk basin area with trailer and setup camp there. Sxs was manageable enough to get around. I think alot of the elk are still in the wilderness. Tough conditions in any case as foot travel was all but impossible for any distance. Oh well, tag soup for me.

Any recommendations for an exhaust shop?

 

Brought my truck to McVays for exhaust reroute. Good service and work still looks good 2 years later!

 

I second this. They did my exhaust on my 85. Did it wrong. I told them what they did wasn't what I asked for. They told me to come back two hours later. It was right when I got back.

Given it was two hours late but they totally owned up to it and the price stayed the same. I appreciate integrity.

 

Is that arb compressor for sale?

 

The only exhaust work I’ve had done here was on my Jeep at Landa on 4th St. They did a good job and I think the price was reasonable enough.

 

No, sold already

 

Baja Designs onx6 20 inch amber lightbar in driving/combo pattern, bought a month ago, switching to a s8 for my front bumper. I do have the connectors and pins needed to make a harness I can throw in, a switch as well, fuse/relay block as well. asking 500.

 

What size S8 are you looking for? Would you be willing to trade? Plus some cash?

@RelentlessFab will a 20” onx6 fit in the 3rd gen low profile bumper?
