    how many good cliff jumping spots are there around reno/tahoe? Summers coming up here and theres more than a few solid spots. Ill make sure to hit them all multiple times if reno is lacking in that area. nothing crazy but the most ill do comfortably is prob 25-35 feet. Most sketch one I've done was prob abt 30 feet into abt 10 foot deep water while having to jump forward about only 5 ish feet. Im hoping there is since here if I'm not super careful heat exhaustion is very likely.

    Rubicon Point at Tahoe is a popular spot. Big rock face.

    Not my video but shows the area.

    eta- Heat exhaustion? Reno is high desert and not crazy hot like PHX or Vegas. If you are in the shade the "its a dry heat" is really true. Also a quick spray down with some water and the evaporative cooling will do wonders.

    Hey everyone - I don’t post much, but trying to find a recommended shop to get my truck aligned/wheels rebalanced. Have pretty bad wheel shake from like 55-65mph and it pulls pretty hard right.

    OE suspension as far as I can tell.

    TIA

    Sunrise Auto off the 50 in Carson did pretty good with my transmission work I needed done so I'll bet they can do an alignment and rebalance pretty well. Another good place I've been to was Innovative Automotive in Moundhouse. That guy did some good work putting in my body mount bushings.

    I mean, that would be convenient lol. Searching within individual threads on here isn't the most user friendly, and I hate to be the guy that asks the same question for the 1000th time. I'm also not tryna scroll through 622 pages :rofl:

    Just ordered a full OME kit from Wheelers. When you go to their website you should get an email sign up pop up and they’ll send you 15% off code.

    Interesting. It was 15% when I ordered a few weeks ago. They must change it. I went with their regular kit, not the BP51s. Nitro chargers, 886 coils, HD Dakars, and the newer OME upper control arms. Also added in front and rear Wheelers super bumps.
