NW WA Meet / BS Thread

I'm happy with my Cali Raised 31.5 inch light bar.

 

Haha same. Was supposed to be on a 1 year "no buy" for the truck after spending ~7k and made it 9 months so...might as well add to the shit pile without flushing.

 

Between new wheels and tires, bed bars, RTT, plus front and rear bumpers I am only up to about 6k in the past 3 months so I should still be good right?

She keeps saying something about it being the same amount as this ring she wants...

 

The one thing I would say about a bed rack that I'm not super happy with right now, is the height of the tent. I guessed (badly apparently) that I would have enough room to stand under it, maybe ducking a little. Not the case. A canopy/taller rack (full height) would fix this problem, and what is best imo. Hoping that when I get tires it will help enuff to keep it.

We will see.

 

Haha I already gave mine a ring so I am not sure what she has any hesitations about?!? In all reality though, she loves going out in the truck and fully supports it. Keep telling only a little more until it'll be where I want it to be....

 

I have an oem tow hitch receiver for sale. If anyone is interested let me know! I'm in Everett wa

 

So glad one of our brethren bought your magnificent truck.

 

Ha! About $17k in the truck so far, and she's going to Greece without me 2 weeks after we go to St. Martin/ St. Bart next week. Plus new camera body. Plus $100 bikinis. 3 of em.
Welcome to married life.

 

I just swapped the LR UCA with TC UCA and after alignment it was fixed.

 

Finally installed my Racor lift for my RTT. Had to air down to 10lbs to fit the truck in with the tent on.
I need to come up with a better set up, but the 2x3s and u-bolts will do for now.
Will need to lower the shop light too.

 

After killing her spine this weekend my wife is STOKED about the new suspension going in this weekend. Even asked me to take one out of the box to show her.

 

Thanks Benjamin! Let's meet up soon!

 

You're getting a GX? Are you taking it wheeling someday so I can redeem myself for our snow wheeling day??

 

I have the DSM UCAs if you're referring to uniball UCAs that help correct post-lift alignment. I should add that after one of my TW wheeling trips, I wasn't able to get it fully aligned - meaning that the tech said that the adjustment was at the end of its limit. Then I had a period where the suspension would make a loud snap noise when I began reversing with the wheel turned one direction. Now that loud snap is gone but I'm getting the grinding vibration noise all the time and the alignment seems like it's different every time I drive. I tried some YouTube troubleshooting stuff but I should have chased this issue a long long time ago.

 

If you can convince her to help install it then you win You gotta get them involved!

 

I will definitely. My appointment is on the 8th so I'll let you guys know if it helped.

 

I got that shit outta the way so I could proceed with truck parts. But I spent more on my truck..... Don't Tell her... shhhh...

mine is the complete opposite. Almost like this.

 

So you're saying that she is insecure.....Lol

 

Is anyone planning a day wheeling trip in the next 2 or 3 weeks?

If not, I might get one going in the North end around Concrete area.

 

Meh, to a point, but not as extreme as some of my other friends SO's. Sometimes she thinks I just go to the bar and give all the women beard rides when she's not around.
