    Hey, check it!

    "THE GREAT SOUTHERN MARYLAND MEAT MEET"

    Who: Anyone can come. Everyone is invited. Bring the kiddo's too.

    What: A simple get together to hang out with friends/family, eat some BBQ (Yes Brisket) & shoot the shit.

    When: Tentatively Saturday January 4, 2020
    * This will most likely change a couple times but right now this is the feeler date.
    We'd like to get interested peeps to consider it but naturally the more the merrier. So if you can't make a date, tell us when you can. Maybe we can adjust our schedules to suit you.

    Where: Loony Bin BBQ, Gambrills, Md.

    http://www.loonybinbbq.com/

    I called and spoke to Nick and he said they have at least room for 60 inside. I doubt it will be nice enough outside to hang out. If winter is a little harsher than expected and this becomes a stupid idea then we will just reschedule it. Simple.

    But if you're the least bit like "hmmm, I definitely don't have anything to do that day, and some BBQ meat sounds good to me, then come on out. If ya ask me is sure beats checking off items on your Honey-Do list!

    I'm just gonna add names here and cross post this in a couple other threads. Yes, I will keep them all up to date.

    @RobP62 - Yes
    @Minimag95 - "That'll be a solid probably from me"
    @EatSleepTacos - "Definitely a maybe though with strong chance of changing my mind and doing nothing at home instead since it's 3.5 hours away"
    @Jim=2015 TRD PRO - "I’m in. Only about an hour drive. jim"
    @Comatose - "All I know is my gut tells me maybe."
    @rnish - "50/50 If I show I’m no longer anonymous :anonymous:"
    @Justanotherhemi - "It’s a strong maybe for me. 92/27"
    @UntamedTaco - "Brisket!!! Hells ya, that's my favorite food group. Count me in."
    @RedDeadTaco - "I’m in!"@fdb03taco - "Definitely a soft maybe" [ thinks to self, that's what she said :rimshot: ]
    @FIRE74 - I’m in, can’t remain anonymous forever
    @Bobby18 - I’m in:)
    @Tarvis - I'm in. Anyone interested in carpooling from Cecil / Harford? (That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works! But if you must, you can ride with me.)
    @pdenajim - "I'm in"
    @brownbagindustries - I can do the 4th.
    @FadoMakar - Sick I'll be there!
    @Tonymontana - I know about it, and I'm in.




    Edit - Linking this post to make it easier for me to go back and update.

    The 3.5 in your motor displacement is how many hamsters they have frantically turning their wheel to power the 3rd gens.

    Soo I bought a subaru today. I'm kinda having feelings that I cheated on my normal toyota loyalty. Its was this or a RAV4 with a 10k higher price tag.

    I'm trying to wrap my head around how much beefier these look that my 700# fox's. Logic would say match the preload I have on the fox's. They just look more built than my fox's so I'm skeptical. I guess it's easier to take away than add preload when they are on the truck. I have never adjusted on truck anything with resi's so not even sure it can be done. These also have a 18 stamped on them. I dont think you could fit a 18 inch coil so not sure what that is. I think my current coils are 14 x 700# eibach.

    I'm way overthinking this :rofl:

    You always bring out the best in me Conner. Thank you. :hattip:

    As a result, I did some very technical research and this is what I turned up.

    These are our technologically advanced 3rd Gen hamsters.












    I think we all know whose hamsters these are. :thumbsup:

    So that's why @My Name is Rahl has been such a big fan of the 3rd gen. He trains the hamsters

    I’m running these coil overs with those coils and have 7-8 threads and about 2.5” lift. I’d say start there and adjust as needed. Maybe 9 threads since you’ll be a lil heavier
