NW WA Meet / BS Thread

sweeeet. Hi ProPhaze!

 

Those are pizza cutters like mine, in fact they are the same dimensions as what I have installed now but obviously more tread...
Thinking about it.... but 35" are in my mind...

 

You can see my sliders in that pic behind the tires

 

Where's this trail at?

 

Anybody interested in doing some exploring on Sunday? The girlfriend wants to get breakfast at Sultan bakery so I was thinking maybe meet there in the morning and then head up Hwy 2. I've been up Beckler Rd. just past Skykomish to go shooting with friends a couple times and it looks like there might be some interesting FS roads shooting off of that or if anyone knows of anywhere else interesting up that way I'm up for whatever.

 

I might be into that depending on how Saturday night goes. I really like that Beckler Rd. Troublesome Creek area.

 

Yeah, the lifetime deal has definitely been worth it for me. I have played around with the front end enough to make it worthwhile for me. I can see how those UCAs might confuse the novice tech but the trick is finding one with enough savvy to figure them out. I am usually pretty aggressive about talking with the tech after they have set it up on the rack but before they start to make changes.

FWIW, I use the one in Kent on 240th at 108th.

 

That and some of the other trails we explored that weekend were just past Little Naches off HWY 410. The south side of the road is were we started at a place called devil's creek and went up and down East and West from there. There was a couple little techniqueal spots (tight areas... haha which we all love) where I almost dragged my rear corner on a tree and then a few different trails that had some old standing water mud holes.

 

I will have to pull out my maps to get the trail Numbers we started on^^^.
The weekend of mothers day me and the wife and kid will be heading up some trails just north of Rimrock lake off HWY 12, there is a couple small bodies of water we wanted to find/camp and fish at. Could and prob. will do some exploring around that area also..... anyone want to join let me know! I am by no means a guide but I will find my way around with some maps and GPS.

 

Finished up my front end. Well minus the lightbar which isnt wired yet. But i can finally drive the truck again! Still a good amount to go but its all smaller stuff.

Looks great Nick

 

Looks awesome Nick! Got my shock relocation done today, running 12" travel kings with resi Zipties are temporary right now

 

Looks awesome but damn that bumoer is wide!!! What brand?

 

Looks like Pelfrey

 

Been looking into linking the rear instead of springs. Anyone have links that can shed some light on that? Ive been looking at the Giant DD link kit.

Its a pelfreybilt. It is a bit wider but not that bad. It sticks out ~1" one either side past the fender flares. Looks a bit wider as the passenger side fender flare is off too.

Dont think youll find many people up here with a linked rear. But post in the Long Travel thread or in the San Deigo thread and there are tons of people who have done it down there.

 

Okay will do, cool thanks.

 

Had a productive morning!

Got the Mt Shasta all setup! Cant wait to use it. Its a lot roomier than i thought it would be.



And then i took it off. Couple thing ill change on the pulley setup but it works good so far.

 

Awesome

 

That would be awesome if you could get that for me. I've been wanting to go on something like that. Start of my offloading experience with just dipping my toes into the water, with some FS roads and light trails.
