Just a little north of you in Englewood. Happy to tag along! Won’t be much help on recoveries until I get more gear though

I'm new to the T4R club but very interesting in a group like this as I look to do add a lift and various other mods. Just purchases a 2006 Limited V8 and very excited about it!

Is anyone around here running 265/70/17s with 5100s and different springs (not spacers)? If so I'd love to see your rig in person; there are so many options and I'm having a very difficult time deciding what to put on my new (to me) '05 V8 rig. It's going to be my daily so I'm more concerned with on road manners and looks than rock crawling capabilities.

Might consider some light wheeling.. if allowed. This COVID-19 will get in the way this summer. Just a stock 2008 SR5 here in Sedalia area.

It seems like most of the folks here want to do some lighter wheeling.

I hope we can organize a trip this summer to maybe Switzerland Trail, Bunce School Road, Iron Clads, or T33-A. Pole Hill in Estes Park is fun, so are some trails off of Tiger Road up in Breckenridge. The spot in Breckenridge allows for some great camping, old mines, and mountain goats!

I live outside of Black Hawk. went up Pickle Gulch the other afternoon. it's pretty open for a while. some snow still towards the top. But I'm down for some fun "easier" trails this summer.

also, wheeling is the ultimate social distancing activity! we are all in our own trucks, so no need to break the 6ft rule.

If anyone doesn't do the work on their trucks themselves, can you recommend a trusted mechanic in the Denver area? Or nearby. I have a few things I want to have checked out I can't figure out myself.

where do you live? I've used the guys at Bending Wrenches in Arvada a bunch. good, honest guys and a bunch of them wheel their rigs. not Toy-specific, but good non the less.

I'm by sloans lake. I've heard a lot of people recommend the Toy Shop but its not the closest so wanted to get other recommendations as well. Bending Wrenches isn't to far, I'll check them out.

RSG in Lakewood is another big Toyota Off Road shop. they make their own sliders and bumper and stuff, and focus a lot on the more off-road type upgrades. but I'm taking my t4r there in two weeks for an alignment and possibly to have them replace a CV axle. so they do other regular work as well.

I took both my wife's Subaru and my old Jeep TJ to Bending Wrenches and I sent a handful of other folks there too. good guys for all sorts of work.

I took mine to All-american 4x4 the other day. Not sure about them but they found a lot of stuff. They said my power steering rack needed to be replaced because it was leaking, but it's not leaking profusely so...IDK. They also said my CV Axles needed to be replaced which i then did myself and yup, they were definitely in horrible shape.

Also they didn't charge me anything, and gave me a free Uber (just back to my house, not from my house back to the shop though maybe they would have if I had asked), so... That was nice.

Mines in the body shop. A deer ran into it on south wadsworth. I’ll get it back next week. Then I’m in for some light off roading.
