    Mm. Not quite the style I want to go eventually. And I’ve only got a few thousand on my current tires and I much prefer my wildpeaks to a MT. Gl tho

    Well, GX has been in the garage on stands for a few weeks and developed a transfer case leak. Appears to be the front output shaft seal. Manual states to remove transmission and transfer case to repair. I feel like this comes up often, but any recommendations on Toyota/Lexus specialty shops that would take that on?

    When did 4th of July go from celebrating America to acting like complete douchebags? I’m not sure what’s worse between the pictures I’ve seen of the absolute garbage dump people turned Lake Tahoe beaches into, which is the worst I’ve seen in recent years, to lighting the hills behind my house on fire with fireworks.

    Agreed. And at the risk of a 30 day vacation I'll leave it there. WTF, sad.

    On one hand, people need to clean up their own shit. On the other hand, how does USFS allow this to happen every year with no enforcement or consequences? Every year it’s like there is no planning or management from agencies that are supposed to be taking care of public lands. Then the public comes in and volunteers to clean it all up.

    People definitely need to clean up after themselves but the current mentality is no worries "someone" will clean it up. I agree 100% that the USFS should hold dipshits responsible.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Tourists really fucked up my local beach. Was out for 2 hours this morning helping clean up this mess. We ended up with over 7000 lbs of trash, just from this one beach.

    Fuck people.

    On the plus side, we raised $20,000 at my kid’s school for charging $40/car to park in the school lots which is across the street from Zephyr Cove Beach.

    Not the same thing but I was chilling in my car yesterday in the Costco parking lot and some lady in a Porsche across from me just started dumping out garbage. Then her mom even joined in and started pouring out trash onto the floor.

    I wont say I wasnt part of the "tourist invasion" yesterday in tahoe. But at both beaches I was at I left with more trash than the stuff I came with. It's sad that the amount of "other people will take care of it" outweighs the "Pickup the extra trash you see".

    I had my one day of zephyr on the 4th. never again. Started the morning on a buddies boat though. Always a blast

    So I’m thinking for doing UCA’s once I buy them it is probably worth it to have a shop do those at the same time as swapping to the heavier coils on my coilovers. I don’t want to mess around with those manual spring compressors because that’s just scary and not somethin I want to take on in the apartment garage. That and I’d have to cut out the UCA bolt right? Since it hits frame?


    Think Nate’s is the best bet? Or anyone have other suggestions for trustworthy but also not insane $$$

    That's awesome it definitely kept a lot of cars from parking on 50. I took this picture about 2ish yesterday. Most years they are all double parked in spots.
