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

Office view this morning.

 

Not really. All the skiing I do will has already started to take a toll and I wear some supports when I go up most of the time now. The day they come out with upgraded knees I'm selling a kidney to get em

 

Now THAT'S what I like to see.

 

Bummer on you knee @cartter469

Typically the rest of my body hurts so much I usually don't even notice my knees. I guess that's a positive when it comes to cancer

 

I can't "like" this post.

I wish everyone that is a nice person felt good all the time!

 

Powered exoskeleton legs

 

I would kick a lot of people in the balls if I had those.

Taking the kids to cars & coffee tomorrow AM. Never been so I'm not sure what to expect but here are the details if anyone is interested. Fingers crossed it's not just a bunch of clapped out civics and imprezas.

 

Made it back!

 

Woah...ya can't post that without deets. There are rules and procedures.

Last time I went to one that was by a coffee shop in the sportsmans shopping area there were high end Porsches, vipers, a new Ford GT, Audi RS6 Avant and many more exotics. It was a fun time talking with people. I can post some pics from the last one if you want but they're mainly of one viper that looks like it's been lived in and tracked its whole life.

Fantastic pic.

 

Well I tried to install suspension. I couldn’t get the frame and the axle far enough apart to get leafs out. Our trucks have that little pivot in back.

I had 2 little pieces of 2x4 to put under the factory bottle jack the truck comes with. I wasn’t comfortable only having the bottle jack below the pumpkin to lower it down while the frame was supported since this was my first attempt at anything like this solo.

Thinking floor jack+larger sturdier chunk of wood on the hitch to move the frame up far enough from the axle to get leafs out and new ones in.

The top nut for one of my shocks was slightly cross threaded so that made it real interesting since the shaft of the shock just spun with it. My savior Ended up being duct tape and really really clamping down w some pliers on the duct tape. Needed the friction to be able to get past the cross thread. My suspensions toast anyway so not worried abt resell or anythin.

no power tools+bottle jack= me very tired
But I had fun so Idrc. That’s how this shits supposed to go when I’m personally doing it first time right?
