Vegas BS Thread!

Other than 4WP. Can anyone point me to a local store that might have a Bubbarope in stock? I'd like to have it for this weekend.

 

I read Off Road Warehouse is open, they might stock them locally

 

Hey all! Work’s got me headed to Sloan, if you had time for a short trail, where would you go? I think I’ll have time for at least one short adventure.

 

Yo Vegas 3rd Gen Peeps. I am trying to convince @TWTaco with K& D Tuning to make a trip out here to OVTune our trucks. He was just down in Phoenix last weekend and they had 16 trucks show up.

ICYMI here is an interest thread. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/ov-tuning-k-d-tuning-is-willing-to-come-to-vegas.709228/

If you don't know K&D Tuning and what they are offering: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/orange-county-socal-area-k-d-tuning-service.707096/

 

Well today we went back to the rollers with @TWTaco ‘s truck using @PapaRee ‘s KD Performance tune. Last time we used my truck using 33” M/T’s and while the performance numbers were good... using stock tires was great!

Stock and OVTune 2.0 seemed to have the power dip at about 5300 RPM, and KD Performance has a pretty linear power curve all the way up to the 6300 RPM fuel cut that’s built into Toyota’s software.

All tunes were using the premium 91+ octane maps!

Stock put down 233 WHP
OVTune 2.0 w/THX 240 WHP
KD Performance 270 WHP +37 Over Stock!

Was in Vegas for 15 years, then moved to Houston 3 years ago and in April our house out here will be back on market. Moving back to Vegas. Me and my wife missed it to much. Can’t wait to be back.

 

Is the Vegas BBT club still running?

 

@MOT

Looking for a spare 17-inch wheel. Anyone have one?

It can be shit, it's going to be my full size spare

 

Headed to Vegas next month. Is the dunes trail area near Nellis a good place to go check out? I’ll be I a stock 5th gen 4Runner. Any other really easy trails near by? Thanks.

 

Anyone interested in a 4X Innovations traction bar for 2nd gen with LSD? Sold the truck last week and forgot I had it. It's identical to the BudBuilt traction bar. Never installed, still raw steel.

I'd rather not throw it away. Not much info on it since it was discontinued.

@JaCado next time post that directly on the SNORR FB page. Looks like here was a 3 hour delay before it was on SNORR's radar, and it doesn't even look like anyone saw it that late. The guy that went out from San Diego didn't update until 2:41am, surely SNORR or a random lurker like myself could have ran down there by 10:30 and got it sorted by 11.

Also a good resource to have for yourself or anyone who has trouble in the vicinity.

 

I do not do Facebook anymore. TW is my only social media outlet. If it ain't here.....then it probably doesn't matter.

 

Fair enough.

Still a great resource to have in your back pocket should you ever need serious recovery in the middle of nowhere. If they can't get to you in a timely manner, they usually find someone who can.

 

Someone should sticky this in the Southwest forum.

 

Here is that ^^^ but in a useful format. Ain't nobody got time to be typing that out character by character.

 

Do yall have any recommendation on a good mechanic that perhaps specialize in Tacomas, Toyota, or trucks? Please let me know, thanks!
