I pulled the overloads on my tacoma when I went to the chevy leafs. Not sure if the truck would have been heavy enough to get that pogo effect that my 3/4 ton has when its not loaded but didn't want to find out. I enjoyed the chevy leafs for the one time I wheeled it before I parted it out....

I think this is where it gets weird for me is, "closing" user generated trails that in the BLMs eyes are closed anyways because of their rules or regulations is a no brainer to me as a "land manager" (I am a forester, I look at trees), you can't have people just making trails wherever they feel...

I read it somewhere on this forum or another but the statement was along the lines "I follow trail etiquette, stay on the trail, trails are still closed." I agree that things are going to come to a head, how is my question. Mass non compliance? Do we have a Bundy type situation but with...

Not trying to defend the BLM in anyway, I think a lot of what we do as an agency is a joke. We let grazing absolutely decimate landscapes because the agency as a whole is too scared to push back on ranchers but will shut down an existing single track(s) because its not designated. Most of the...

It should be covered under the Salt Lake Field Office TMA but I am having a hard time finding managed routes. What I am guessing is the field office caught wind of trails out there and are finally getting around to signing them. A quick look at onX show some shared trails which may account for...

I guess my question is, are these user generated trails or trails managed by the BLM? Not trying to advocate for trail closure but if they are user created then is "closing" an unsanctioned trail mismanagement of a resource? Soldier pass is next if they haven't already found out about the trail...

I can not recall off the top of my head how many BLM offices were in the SUWA lawsuit but I remember seeing something about Price being involved. If you read through a few of the documents on the ePlanning website, they discuss one scoping period they had with 1800ish comments, 1400 of them...

I can pass some info along with suggestions people may have for different steering locations.

Steering geometry is based on artec locations.

He made one set and is planning on testing them over the next few months. I will get some info on steering arm geometry.

I think because he already had this axle built up, he has had requests for the 05+ and sounds like he is going to work on that in the near future.

Posting some info about these billet steering arms my buddy designed an had machined for his rig. He wants to do some testing, but is entertaining the idea of making a batch to sell. I will do my best to translate his engineer speak. Designed for 99-04 housing, 7075 aluminum, center bore big...

That's the guy!

I have a buddy with a 2007 Tundra that he threw a blower on at 214k, now at 296k. Says he played with HP tuners to get it running properly. 8 PSI at 5500 ft, 10-11 around 3000 ft and claimed (unsure how true this is) 490hp/580tq to the wheels with deeper gearing and 35's. Again, unsure of power...

As long as you get a comment to them, whether through the Eplanning page, mailed letter or the field office public email, it will be read and considered in the NEPA process. Also, on the Eplanning page, on the documents tab, the "EA Checklist" speaks to the rational of the field office for...
