UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Thanks Jason,
The best parts and deepest crossings were not filmed, unfortunately.

My family and I were untouched. I didn't even lose power at the house. Quite lucky, considering the amount of flooding in the region.

BTW, I found a higher resolution version, and deleted the original, sorry! New video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyVC3MwXdHc

 

Glad you and your family are ok, I work with a a lot of people in NY and NJ they had of course flooding and power outages for several day for several days.

 

Hey whats everyone been up to? My friend is in town for a while and he wants to go 4 wheelin, anyone up for a meet?

 

I'm planning to go to the RME thing over at Miller Sports Park already this Friday/Saturday and have to be home on Sunday. I might be able to do something Sunday noonish+ though. They going to be around on the 24th and it'd probably be better/more time?

 

Anyone planning any trail ride trips before the snow sets in?

 

I'm not sure about everyone else but I know a good handful of us have been super busy this summer with work and everything else. Hopefully I can make another trail run before to long.

 

Wow Jan, just checked out the video. Glad to hear that you and your fam are ok.

 

hi new here. i just put on 4 5100's @ 2.5'', fr.diff. drop, cb drop, toytec 2" AAL. need alignment and tires does anyone know a lifted taco friendly place to get a good deal on some 265 75 16's and a good alignment, in or around slc? thanks

 

265 75 16
Stocks? Or aftermarket?
just tires or wheels and tires?

 

I was always told to avoid 4 wheel parts.

 

stock coils, stock wheels(trd 16" alloys) I think. would like firestone destination AT, bfg AT KO, Terra grapplers or some comperable tires. thanks

 

I always go to Discount for tires, they will typically match or beat any price. Take in the Tirerack.com price and see if they will beat it.

P.S. Welcome to TW

 

thanks josotaco
I have a discount tire near my house. are the any good with alignments?

 

thanks ww
I heard they are expensive. but that's it.

 

Yeah I heard the same thing but I heard horror stories of shops all around the country where they were giving the customers issues. I'm not saying there are some good stores out there, just what I heard from TW members.

I got enough issues already. ;^]

 

Discount Tire doesn't do alignments but they can recommend places. Rumor has it Firestone has a lifetime alignment you can buy it's a little expensive but hey buy it once and take you truck in for alignment as many times as you want in the future. I'm going to look into that option for my next alignment.

 

thx jaso
I am going to firestone today to talk to them. they have the tires I want and do alignments. when I was putting on my billies I coulnt get the top nut off my struts, so I went to the pep boys to see if they could just swap out the struts quick. they said leave them here for at least two hours and they might get to them. and charge me 35 bucks each. so I walked out and went to firestone across the street and asked them if they could just loosen the top nuts. the had both done and in my hands in 5 mins. and didn't charge me a thing. so I think they may get to put tires on my taco.
pep boys blows

 

Firestone, I never have been a big fan of Pep Boys. I like doing business with companies that value good customer service even if means doing something for free.

 

I have the lifetime alignment on my truck. Granted, I do think they have restrictions to the amount of times you can take it in a year (I think twice a year), but after the 3rd alignment, its more than paid for itself.
