Oregon and Washington BS thread

Have you checked the leaf mounting pins? Maybe undo the suspension and check it all?

 

3 coyotes, 1 hay bale.

 

That's a BA picture

 

So did you shoot them?

 

Did anyone fill a tag this weekend? I wasn't able to go out, I'm hoping to live vicariously through others.

 

Missed. Grabbed the dope sheet for being zeroed at 100 yards instead of 200. Would have been two yotes with one bullet dammit.

 

I took my dad to Mary's Peak so he could take sunset pictures. He loves photography. I found out Mary's Peak is closed until some time in November. So we ended up taking the 1 lane gravel road over to Harlan. It was a fun drive even though we didn't get to go to the top.

 

So I'm putting oem turn signals back on. Only problem I have is I can't find out what the heck sort of connector plugs into the plug. Anyone know?

 

that looks like wires should go in there, looks like the plug is in the pic, just not wired.....

 

kind of like what you see here.....

 

Yea, I'm just not sure how to wire it. Looks like there is some sort of OEM connector that keeps the wires in the plug?

 

Its a "weatherproof" (more like weather resistant IMO, hate weatherproof term) connector. The wires will have a connection on the end that will secure in the weatherproof section. The little plug you see j ust fits over the wire.

Look up weatherpak or duetsch connectors since i suck at explaining things.

I dont know how the OEM ones wire up exactly though but its the same idea

 

@jammdogg hey James maybe I missed it. Hope things panned out with work

 

Complete Charlie Foxtrot. Site closing, so they offered me a relocation package. This was on a Thursday in late September, and I accepted, verbally. They wanted me in place on December 1.

So mom and my brother went to house and started painting, redoing trim, 20 Yd drop box delivered, Landscape work, etc.

Negotiating the relo benefits, to get them to truck down my cars. Get an email stating, Ooops, we are over budget, and not backfilling position in Vegas. Have to rescind offer.

So, I am staying. Looking for work, which sucks. Happy I am staying, but not happy with the way it went down.

 

Damn James...that sucks! Sorry to hear it.

But...silver lining....because TSF?

 

Ok, so...when I had my truck lifted, I went with instead of 650#. I didn't (and still don't...yet) plan on putting a bigger (heavier) bumper/winch on.

I'll be getting my sliders welded on next weekend (finally, yay!), which are quite a bit heavier than the step bars I had on. I have no idea how much they actually weigh, but @ETaco23 did an awesome job on them.

Now I'm contemplating a new skid plate and belly pan as there's some unprotected stuff hanging down underneath. The product page says that it's 110# for both.

My question is - am I potentially going to be adding more weight than I should with "only" 600# springs with the sliders and skid/belly?

 

I have a front bumper, ifs, trans and transfer case skids, and sliders with 600lb springs. I'll be going to either 650lb or 700lb springs.. I lost about 3/4" of lift with everything on and the front is spongy.. Very spongy. I hate it

 

Ugh. That's the kind of feedback I was looking for, thanks. Crap. It was the same price for the 650lb but I didn't ever envision I'd be doing more stuff to my truck.

Those bumpers are really heavy...maybe I'll be ok if I don't go that far. Or, plan to upgrade the springs if I do.

 

of course! That was one thing I was NOT looking forward to, is no green, limited hunting opps, etc.

 

Damn. Always get it in writing aye? Sorry to hear they did that. Things will work for the better in the end I'm sure. On a selfish note glad you're staying!!!
