Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Ha Im pretty sure I saw you. At least your truck. Tahoma is my backyard. I live in Homewood bout a mile from PDQ. Have you had a sammich from there before. Mmmmm best around. But bayview trail is rad. All of desolation wilderness is. Love all those trails. You didn't check out the rubicon did you? Saw a silver DC drive past my house that looked like yours.

 

I did! Right when we got into town wednesday afternoon, I turned and cruised up to the the Rubicon trailhead there. A guy in a grey or green 2nd gen Tacoma was parked in front of the snow bank with a trailer. I figured it was closed off, but couldn't resist the temptation to go look!

haha ya we stayed right there at the tahoma meadows cabins. good times. I cruised by PDQ like 10 times and didn't stop in. Now that I know! I'm hittin it up next time.

 

Ha far out!! You may have seen my truck. Black 2nd gen DC with a white TOYOTA decal on the tailgate. And a red 91 pickup lifted with 35s to the left. 2nd house before a left hand corner heading to the rubicon.

 

got back from an awesome trip in the North West. Whistler is hands down the best mountain on the earth! One run from about 3/4 the way up took 13 minutes to go all the way down. That place was humongous!

 

Pictures or it didn't happen.

 

I actually have all 13 minutes on the GoPro. Just haven't uploaded it yet

Here's one at the bottom before the day started

 

On the way to dinner last night saw a lifted silver 2nd gen. It had a camper shell and safari rack with fog lamps on it. Had a sticker that said Die tailgating scum on the lower right side of the tailgate.

On fair oaks and Howe around 515.

 

did you tailgate him

 

Yup to read what it said. Lol. I think it was a female as well

I think I need a new alternator. Ever since frank raines I've been having issues. My battery light keeps coming on. And drains my battery.


Is this a simple swap out?

 

it's pretty hard to break a alt, just take it out and clean it. usually the wire brush get shit in the alt get shit all over it and it doesnt give a charge.

 

I was having the same issue. I just took a pressure washer to it and hit it a bunch with a wrench. It's worked good for the last 3 weeks.

 

as long as you clean it ouw and let it dry b4 you fire it up they dont usually break.

 

Eric: so is it easy to take it out? I had to pull over on my way back from tahoe cause my radio turned off and my wipers were moving slow (dying battery) so I pulled over and through water on it, banged on it and needed a jump after. I didn't have the time to let it dry.


Robert: this is my third time watering it and banging on it. It may need a thurough cleaning as Eric stated.

 

well banging on it is not gonna help, taking it out is easy, threre are 2 bolts holding it, one for adjusting tension and one for holding.

 

sold mah supa charja!!
