Oregon and Washington BS thread

Looking for shop recommendations for the regear of my 2016 Tacoma Sport. Want the 4.88 and most likely ARB lockers front and back.
Portland Oregon or nearby. Thanks!

 

on the topic of shop recommendations...does anyone have one for a good german car shop? specifically audi s4's.

 

More to come but I'll be selling my CVT Mt Shasta soon

 

How many monies $$ ???

 

Anyone have a 2000 or newer gts 6 speed celica?

 

Anyone have a need for stock uppers/lowers? Mine from my 06 with 70ish thousand on em are collecting dust.

Also have my stock front diff with 80k on it taking up space.

Help me rid my shop of these Lol.

 

CVT Mt Shasta for sale


I have had the shasta for about 2 years. My TW price is 1,100. It's lower because of a few things that I will be upfront about.

1. There are 2 holes in every corner because I used Ubolts to mount it to my low profile rack. I have butyl and RTV that I can provide to fill the holes. Structurally these do no harm in my opinion, but sealing them will be recommended if you don't mount them with u bolts.

2. The ladder could be replaced, recently it took a tumble and it isn't perfect near the top. it's a sliding ladder, not the new fancy style. it's about $100 bucks from CVT. I can assist in getting a new one, but structurally it is still sound.

That's really all that is notable. The rails are trimmed to go width wise not length, but i was able to mount it both ways on my canopy so no big deal.

I have an extra annex I can include, and even an extra set of mounting hardware.

I can sell it tonight, tomorrow, or next month.

 

Driveline sold

 

Holy. Shit. I'm over here catching up on weekend posts that I missed... and you posted this in like every single thread that I'm following.

 

Just the regional threads.

 

Clearly we follow the same threads... your name... everywhere. It's like you're following me...

 

I believe you are following me regardless of the restraining order

 

I think it's more like you show up wherever I already am...

 

I feel like I may have, but I see so many Tacos I couldn't be sure. Your front windows aren't tinted, are they? I saw a Tacoma similar to yours on 26EB from the Glencoe Rd exit, but their front windows were at least 20%.

 

I'm thinking about hitting up both Willow Creek Hot springs and Juntura Hot springs this weekend if possible. Do any of you Oregonians know what the conditions are like in either of those areas? I'd hate to be stopped by a 15' wall of snow.

 

Anyone's fox CO's look like this after this winter? These are my buddies shocks on his 2017 and only have 2300 miles since September on them.

 

Yeah I just noticed some surface rust on my rear Fox's, I've heard they are prone to corrosion so you have to keep them really clean. Must be a shitty coating on them if they start corroding that fast.

 

Coming to climb/ski hood the first weekend in may!

 

Turns out if you don't have 40's you wont make it to Juntura hot springs right now. The river is high and fast. I didn't take any pictures of the crossing but it is probably worth visiting later in the summer.

The wife and I had a great mini road trip though. After not making it to Juntura Hot springs we did make it to Willow Creek Hot Springs which was a perfect 102 degrees.



After Willow Creek we went and checked out Bend. One day was not enough in that city. Definitely on the short list of places I need to go back to ASAP!

Found a mountain to climb east of Bend:

 

Should be good weather for you. That's the best time to climb. I saw a couple people going up the hogs back to the Pearly gates 2 days ago
