New to Denver

[Dogtown]

Dinner might be a bit out of my budget, beer is not! :cheers:

Who wants to help me swap out my rear springs and shocks, and knock the rear diff breather relocate!

Depending when you were planning I could give you an assist. Just took care of the diff breather on mine and I think I still have some excess supplies.

I have that ARB breather kit, and just ordered the new rear shocks/springs today, guessing they will arrive next week assuming in stock, coming from toytec. Need to check with the wife on what's coming up...


This weekend I'm hoping to finish some type of fridge mount and my new CB install now that I got a new dremel, also have some wiring to wrap up and want to get my compressor mount made. Feeling optimistic again... :jump:

This weather has that affect on people. Shoot me a pm if you get a window and need some hands.

Im also new to Denver and was hoping to find someone help me install Bilstein 5100s all around with rear daystar spacers. I've been quoted in the 600-700$ range.

I think I can do it myself but don't know what tools will be needed and nervous about being able to assemble the shock and coil spring on the front together without being able to compress the spring .

i will have a pair of used SAW coils available soon if you might be interested. They are great, until you put a heavy steel bumper on... Doh!

TrailDamage.com is a good site for trail difficulty info. Don't rely on for open/closed status. Some of the info is a bit dated.

I would LOVE to get a meetup going here. There are a lot of CO runners here. Oh AaaAAANNNnnd, CO is a great place for beer.

Hell, there's almost enough numbers in this thread alone! We just need someone to lead us...

Looks like you are getting a new cbi bumper, if you need a hand with that let me know, the install is the same as my 11. It's fun cutting the stock bumper...

I can give you a hand, just let me know when!

Thanks, got the shipping notice already, but need to get those other projects done this weekend, will check with wife beyond.

Lets See Austin = No real 4x4 Trails
Colorado = LOTSSSSS :bump2:

Red Cone is Fun as well, anything up in Summit County is close. You are going to have some fun 4 wheeling summers!

Thanks for all the info guys! Used the info to catch some browns this afternoon and got up close to some bighorns too while I wast out.

I am getting the OME lift and Chaos UCA's done in May by Slee Off-road. That will hold me over until I spring for a bumper winch combo, then maybe Icon or Slee's custom suspension, we'll see.

Totally down for a meet up soon. I still have time until I start work so I will be doing some wheeling during the week. Feel free to reach out if anyone wants to join.

Time to update your location? :banana:

One of us... one of usssssssssssssss.

 

[Jbahr]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.... Updated...

Off to explore Pickle Gulch, hope the snow is gone.

Hope Pickle Gulch was a good time!

To add to everyone's beer comments there is lots of beer to be had, that being said, I work for Coors, and can provide beer for meet ups (from time to time) as it is pretty cheap for me!

Pickle Gulch is a no go. Tons of snow still up there. The hill climb past the campground entrance is 2-4 feet of snow on one side and a stream on the other. I tried to start up it and the snow packed enough the feel like I would not roll, but backed back down knowing that if I got stuck without a winch I would be SOL...

With more snow in the forecast for that region it might be a few weeks till that area melts down. Guess I'll fish the Blue this week and ski A Basin instead.

My buddy in Durango says it's pretty dry down south, if you still have time you should head that way. Don't eat the fish in the river though, haha.

Native Coloradoan here and Coors is the only beer I drink.

Nectar of the God's, I don't care what the craft beer swilling yuppies say.
