NW WA Meet / BS Thread

May as well just keep ordering shit... Stoked to have my first set of SCS wheels =D

They were sold out of lug nuts... Are these the ones I need? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C5TGRVU/ref=s9_dcacsd_bhz_bw_c_x_2_w

 

On that note I ordered BP-51's from @HeadStrong Off-Road Yesterday. Her pricing and customer service are crazy good.

 

First part of this, I think you are looking for the term Dielectric Grease. Same stuff you can get the single use bags of (about the size of condom) at most chain automates stores. Typically on the package, it implies putting it on the base of light bulbs for that electrical connection to keep contacts from oxidizing.

 

Looks very similar to mine. I'd assume they'd work

 

I thought scs uses proprietary lugs that only fit scs wheels. They sre super skinny or something like that.

 

I have no idea, they just look a lot like mine

 

That would be very lame.

 

@AWilson013 I can get you a link after I get out from the doctor. Gorilla work fine.

@Smar969905 it's not dielectric straight, because I know what that is and the name would stick. It had some number associated to it, probably one of those aircraft lubes in my links.

Lucky.. I have to go to work instead of playing in the snow.

 

They are M12x1.5 so should be fine

 

Toys are starting to show up.

 

Which SCS wheels did you get? I picked up my F5s at Mule yesterday and they're getting mounted today! I'm going to use mcgard spline drive tuner lug nuts. I've used them in the past on my STI and currently on my TRD bead lock style wheels.

 

anyone in the seattle and north areas know of any good welders? I need a cab mount chop done, also trying to get some weld on rock sliders installed.

 

Let me know if you find someone. I need the CMC as well.

 

You all will like this one.....got home at 1630 from mailing my Switch-Pro control panel back for an update. I got the TPMS light on the way home. Checked the tires and right rear is leaking. Can hear it! No problem. Swap it out right? But then I can't find my 8 spline socket. Looks like I never got it back from Toyota at last oil change. I usual make sure but...
Air compressor doesn't work (ran through the Switch-Pro. Could bypass but running out of time (it's after 1700hrs by now).
Drove on near flat to Les Schwab, Tire Factory, and am now at Discount Tire where they actually have an 8 spline.
I guess it's still better than a broken uca on the trail.

Follow up.
The Discount Tire guys stayed 30min after closing to fix the puncture. Didn't even charge me, and I didn't buy mine through them.

 

This storm is fucking me royalty...JHMR is shut down with 19 snapped power poles till Monday, and Teton pass is closed till Friday at 8am for avy work so I can't get to targee...wtf am I supposed to do with my days off. I might have to quit my job to actually ride JHMR on Monday when this thing is resolved and there is 3 feet of fresh snow

 

I had a guy in Monroe do both my sliders and CMC, NR Fabrication. The owner Nate is a good guy and got it all done in about 3 hours.

 

Nate is a good dude. Tell him I sent you or he may turn you away. He's crazy busy.

(425) 610 0803 is his number.

 

I got the 17" F5s with 4.30" backspacing or whatever it is. Matte Gun Metal.

I would have loved to go through Mule but the shipping from Vin is considerably less (okay, only $20 less) than the tax. Figure in the fuel to and from Issaquah and the cheap skate in me just cannot do it.
