UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

I'm lookin at buying in a month or so. From what you've said it seems like your timing and my timing will line up pretty good. Along with a couple other people. Let us know!

 

Yeah I'll post up as soon as I can officially get it hooked up.

 

Isn't that always the question after finishing something! Nothing too big. I'm in a good spot to just enjoy it this summer. Do some light wheeling and all the trimming that follows. A little camping, road trips, taxi the mnt bike out to trails, etc.

BTW - Added the rear view mirror mod (moves it up about 3 inches) and I cant believe I drove around as long as I did with it so low! Im 6' so maybe a small amount taller than the average guy but it was totally worth it and super easy to install. I highly recommend it for anyone.

Next time you guys are at a stop light, count how much crap you CANT see that is behind your rear view mirror. This kit moves it up and out of the way.

 

Looking at getting this http://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.com/Bilstein-Adjustable-lift-kit-with-5100-shocks-_p_1137.html for my 2002 tacoma when my tax return comes.

Wondering if you guys know of any places that would install that for me? I have 0 experience working on my truck other than cosmetically and Im honestly scared to try it alone.

Located right in Midvale but willing to travel a fair distance if somebody knows of a good place thats affordable. Thanks guys!

 

I can hook you up let me know when your ready FYI don't forget to use the tacomaworld discount code gets you 10 % off at toytec

 

If you have a couple friends try it yourself. You will need a spring compressor or take it to a shop and havev them put the springs on.

 

I've been really happy with this:

The price is right (although it went up $30 since I bought it a year ago), and it's local. It attaches right to the roof rack and goes up and down in just a few minutes. It's plenty solid.

 

Can you keep that on 24/7?

 

No, it's not designed to be. It attaches via two straps, one for each roof rack foot. All you do is tie each one on. There's an aluminum rod that runs parallel to the truck to add structure to maintain its shape, the two tent poles and guy lines. That's it.

 

sounds pretty cool, im going to look into one.

 

Does anyone around here have a Hypertech speedo or something like it to adjust for lift and larger tires? Any war stories about doing this?

 

Nice! I just posted up on that thread.

 

I got my BAMF sliders on the truck, but I want to drill the last 3 holes on each side.

What should I expect to pay in the Provo area to have the last few holes drilled for sliders that are already on the truck?

 

I want to drive my truck... homework... problems.
we need to do a central utah meet!

 

Hmmm you know with a drill and a proper drill but it can be done easily lol

 

Yeah I would just save the cash and do it your self, My brother and I did mine and it was actually easier than I thought.

 

So are you gonna make it to Moab???

 

when you or any others heading down there? Ill be there the 26th Memorial day, gonna do some sight seeing Tues and Weds.

 

Me and about 8 or so other member and not will be down there from May 24th to June 1st. We will be camped out at Area BFE. Swing on by and grab a beer and shoot the shit. Maybe run a trail or two

 

I know this is late but I have a new front bumper, easter plans that were cancelled, and a need to go offroad. Anybody want to run a trail tomorrow?
