UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

You aren't kidding. My wife and I want purchase a new tow vehicle to replace my Taco and get her back in a Camry. But prices are impossible right now.

 

All I ask is that they scrape most of the stale fries & dried fruit snacks out from under the seats

 

Oh my...don't look at the headliner.......

 

Not on FB anymore, but reminds me of when I considered selling my Long Travel taco last year. I said 30K OBO but would have been happy with 22-25k. People on Utor don't understand long travel rigs. The NADA for my truck completely stock was 17K. I added a little more for all the mods that can't be taken off (Long travel (Front and rear) plus gears). The rest of the stuff would have been on for 'free'.

I have decided to keep it as the new bronco is not out yet, and I still need a truck to do house stuff. We live in Sugarhouse and don't have enough room at our home to have 3 cars without parking one on the street (which I don't want to do).

I will probably keep my truck till the wheels fall off as I have done too much to it to just start over again with something that isn't as capable.

 

Yeah, it doesn’t seem like you can get out of it what you put into it. Not the best move from an investment standpoint.

 

Anyone know of any custom fab shops in the salt lake area that would be willing and able to extend hitch on my raft trailer? I want to sleeve the existing tongue with the next size up of square steel tubing about 6-10inches and then extend the hitch about 3 feet then weld the sleeved section on and run two grade 8 1/2in bolts through it as well. Then attach my hitch coupler to the now extended tongue and be able to utilize my bed drawer more readily.

 

I got a guy. I sent him your post. He responded Ask how much he thinks that job is worth first… LOL

 

I honestly don’t know. Doesn’t seem too crazy IMO but I am also a guy without a welder. I’d reckon a 100$ bucks or so??? but I’m clueless … I plan acquiring the materials for it on my own too

 

Def not worth it if you don't keep your vehicle for a while. I'm going on 10+ years. Depends what/ how you use your vehicle.

 

A bit random but a buddy of mine who owns a 2018 TRD sport tacoma hates the hood scoop on his truck because he can't see over it and is wondering if he could swap hoods with someone else. It's even got a clear bra

 

Oohh that’s rare. Pretty much everybody is looking to add the skewwp. There’s a hood swap thread full of ppl asking for one and willing to pay: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/3rd-gen-only-hood-swappin-n-tradin-thread.413378/page-274

 

Has anyone been to the Sand Hallow State Park?

 

There now.

 

Nice! Have you done any trails? Supposedly they have some challenging trails. I’m thinking I would like to go there.

 

Just passing through on the way to Coalville. Very pretty place. Busy on Memorial weekend. My Taco is loaded down like a barge hauling stuff to outfit a camper trailer. Too heavy for the sand today. $20 gets you in the park.

 

Maybe we need to go back once you drop your load.

 

Anyone have a recommendation on a shop that understands how to align the SPC adjustable UCA? Weber, Davis or SLC county?

 

Corey at Big O in Sandy or Marc at Fat Bob's in Layton

 

Big O in Sandy is my main mechanic. Been going there for decades. I have so many stories where they diagnosed and fix thing others couldn’t and for cheap.

 

Thanks, i'll give those a whirl.. I appreciate it. The last tacoma I had with the SPC's was a nightmare to get an alignment shop to help.
