So-Cal wheelin trip September 12th-14th

There's this one lake here in CA somewhere, can't remember the name right now, but it's gone from a huge lake to a tiny creek.

 

I don't doubt it, Ive see so many lake with their floating docks 1/4 mile from the shoreline...

 

yeah, at Cachuma, you have to walk down twice as many steps now to get to the boat dock. They said it was the lowest water level they've had there since the 70's.

 

Stoked for this weekend whos with me ?!!!!

 

Hell yeah duder! Super stoked! I haven't hit dirt in 6-7 months! It'll be nice to get away...If even just for a night.

 

Same here its been too long for me well kind of haha

 

+1 to that.... be the first time im out in my taco, should be fun.

We got snowsk8air's allpro leaf pack in his rig last night. MUCH better than the dakars.

 

Really? I was thinking about getting the dakars but I've been hearing people talk a lot about the allpros and saying good things.

 

Same here ! Ill probably go with allpro leafs. Just curious whats your guy's setup on your rig. Im rockin billy 51s upfront with eibachs on maxtrac spindles and camburg ucas. 51s in the rear as well nothing fancy !

 

there was nothing wrong with the dakars. I originally got them because i use my taco as a tow rig a few times a year and thought i would need the extra spring rate so I could haul my toy box/ dirtbikes. but the other 358 days out of the year, with no weight in the bed, they are just too stiff. bought myself the allpro's as a bday present to myself, and so far they are much better for a daily driver, but this weekend will be their true test.

with 3-500lbs in the bed, the dakars were beautiful and rode great, but those circumstances were far and few between so I've decided to try something different.

 

I'm only 5100's all around. Stock coils, stock UCAs and stock leafs.

Agh, yeah that's what I've been hearing. I seldom have that much weight in the rear...maybe I'll look into the allpros.

 

Now that Ive added the swing out bumper, RTT, Bedrack, and Bestop I think I need to add the extra overload leaf Dakar sells for my leaf pack.

 

So whos all meeting us in modesto off 99 at chevron?

 

Glen and me at 12.

 

this is my brain today:

"are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet..."

 

Doing the same thing. Working till 4. Home at 5. Fixing my broken tailgate handle so I can get Daves bumper out of my truck. Installing 4 more lights on the truck. Packing, and the grocery store. Wake up at midnight. Order the iphone 6. Wake up at 4. Leave for work at 5. Work 6-11. Meet glen then meet everyone in Modesto. Drive down. Install Daves new bumper. Drink. Sleep. Wheel in the am.

 

This man has his priorities in check! I'd be doing the same but I'm gonna wait until I have a full upgrade in Nov.

 

Still meeting Alex, nick and glen at in n out in Merced? That ok with u fellers?

 

sounds good to me.

 

Typical Nick, always slackin!!! I need to stop looking at my phone and install some lights and exit signs at work, just 1 more hour...
