NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Hahahahha I make my way down there every now and again so I'll keep that trek in mind!

 

Haha yeah wrong baker! Heard the weather may be pretty bad in the mountains this weekend though. I wanna see snow as I havent gotten to in like 3 years about so may have to go anyways!

 

Hey boys I am going to OR to pick up a puppy this sat. Anyone know if Snoqualamie Pass has heavy snow yet?

 

about 30 ft on the roads

 

The snow level is supposed to be getting down to 2000' or so.

Right now..

Lol.

 

You sure your on the right webcam??
This is what mine came up with

 

Love driving Chinook pass when it first opens in the spring and the huge snow berms!

 

They have damn near NO snow yet. We were up there yesterday. Had about an inch on the ground up about 4500' - 5000'.

 

So went down to Vancouver and went out to Yacolt Burn and Jones Creek for a run with my buddy, who has been building a zombie attack vehicle outnof a 73 Kaiser Jeep. 1/8" steel body panels! 1 st time we ran it more than 20 min. Went for about 4 1/2 hours ran great except for the air cleaner falling of and getting eaten by the fan..yeah in 1st pic, we have a lil oil leak to chase down.

 

Also as usual, dented my truck on a rock. 1 step close to new rear bumper with dual swing outs!

 

35 ft now

 

Yeah, I know it's a a Jeep but we gave it a name

 

These guys ar B Sing you. There's only about 32" so no prob with 4 wheels chains.

 

Lol thanks guys. I am not worried about much snow if I am driving the Tumbler. I am considering driving my little Turbo Fiesta for the gas so I'll be sticking to the pavement for this trip.

 

That's the one! I think you went to Tacoma right afterwards. It was during elk season, so this time of year.

 

Alright guys I need help.. Been having a clunk/rattle now for a while and can't figure it out.
Symptoms:
-Only when turning left over minor bumps or going straight and hitting big bumps
-Passenger front feet area, sounds like my door speaker is loose but my friend rode with me and said it sounds like under his feet/thought he could feel something moving under the floor
-I've shaken/hit everything under the truck in that area and nothing is loose

Thought it could be an exhaust shield but they seem tight.. My skids and bumper are all tight.
What could it be?

 

Maybe motor mount or diff mount? Motor mount is up in that area ish
One other thing on my last Taco, I had a steering knuckle start to fail and it telegraphed the clunk. But the steering wheel had a tiny kick too.

 

My steering feels a little loose on the highway right now but I think it's just my alignment. I check the motor mounts and they seemed fine

 

Just wait till you have LT... It sucks

 

Try tightening LCA bolts
