New to Hickory NC area and I am in for any type of meet with in 100mi of hickory. So let me know the date of next meet and am there. Sooner the better. Will go to any meet but prefer ones with some kind of trail/mud riding

 

Welcome. Just keep up here. This thread is pretty much the only "active" one in the southeast forum.

BTW, I bought my leveler @ 4WP during "Free Install" Weekend. So I paid, $200 for the kit, and the alignment

 

Thanks I was just woundering if you have had any problems with it and if you would go with the three inch over the 2 or 2 1/2 .There seems to be alot of negative commits about the three,but would like to here from one with a kit not just an opinion,thanks Chad

 

It's all about the angles the leveling kits create. The bigger the lift, the more the change in angles, the greater the wear on parts.

I went with a 2.0" leveling kit

So far, about 12k+ miles put on with the 3" and I like that I got that much lift. I plan on replacing the ball joints say in another 15k just because everyone says they wear out faster. Because I put so many miles on and I go offroad time to time, I wanted alot of lift for not alot of money. Also, I didnt like the rear being lower then the front, so I put on the AAL. So far, I have put 20 80lb bags of concrete in the bag (1600lbs) not to mention the weight of my tools.

So all in all, No problems so far. I am very happy with it and would like to move up to 35" tires. not sure I've put on enough miles but I can be prepared anyway.

 

Hey, if you wanted, we could do a "mini-meet/ tech day"

 

Just checked back in....I am not very familiar with off roads areas in Asheville, but I do know of one about 20 mins north of Asheville. What I dont know is the "permission" level that can be had for strangers (myself included).

I will check on it. Thanks for the welcome. Oh and I only own one gun and its a 9mm...I am guessing you are talking more rifles and shotguns.

 

All guns are welcome here as long as they're not pointed at us. I just bought a Punisher emblem, aluminum cover plate for my Glock 19.

 

How do you like the 19? My dad's trying to decide which glock 9mm to get.

I'm an idiot, I have a 17. I was just typing in a hurry, But its my baby, I shoot it most, was my first handgun, It has the Special Falcon coating. (Basically the one Will Smith carries in Bad Boys II). I have XS night sights, hi-cap factory mags and extended slide release also. I can outshoot my friend with his Beretta 92/96 which are known to be tack drivers. Maybe he doesnt know what hes doing. I am currently looking to get a G23 for concealed carry. I currently use my Kel-tec P-11 but I want a larger bullet. As Rick said, "You can drop a glock in cement and it'll still fire".

 

Depends on how long you leave it in the cement....

 

You buy the gun, I'll buy the cement, we'll chisel it out and we can test it. Whoever is right gets to keep the gun. deal?

 

Pinks all out is coming to Concord April 25. A few folks from another site are gonna get together so I figured I would see if anyone here is interested. Have to get as many folks with blue blood together to boo them Chevys ...LoL
