NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Not east side but I have an extra I can loan you until ARB gives you 2. That's TWO that should come with the kit. One for front, one for rear. I am in Auburn, but we could meet somewhere like Mule or xxx. Or I can mail it to you.
I have tomorrow off.

 

All I'm gonna say is, they would have never hit you if you took the Volvo up there.

I have yet to check Walker out. You get any pics or video at all? Tell us of your yonder adventures in a mysterious land.

 

Besides 2 maybe 3 shorter trails you definitely need at least 33" good MT tires, full armor, high clearance rear, rear locker and be willing to be winched.
There are 2 gate keepers; one that isn't very hard but we are too long and can't get around the post. Other one is a little more technical but I fit pretty well. Unfortunately most of the trails are closest to the other gate keeper so you have to go around then go down this trail. Of course pictures don't do justice. Took us a while to find this trail. Didn't do those trails as it was getting late (had a late start) and started to downpour. Oh, and no DCLB's..

High centered here the first time, backed up and barely got over it.

 

Ok friends, as of last night, our buddy @JimSnell was in Dutch Harbor, Ak.. probably without comms for a bit. He's doing well on his maiden voyage ( an I do mean maiden, cuz he won't be one when he gets back)
Think good thoughts for a safe voyage.

 

I was just thinking about him. He posted on IG the other day iirc.

 

You on your way back from there when I saw you on hwy 9 tonight in Lake Stevens?

 

Yup I saw you last minute too. RTT and cbi bars look good!

 

Well today was a Fucked day. Broke my manual pop and lock. Went to the Titus will got the oem tailgate handle and the actuator for remote lock and got 20 percent DC. Installed and was a pain but works fine

 

Is he on a boat up there?

 

That looks awesome, definitely want to see that stuff in person. I think my rig could possibly do most of it, plus it's a bit smaller... but it's also my only DD work truck and I can't afford to bash the shite out of it. *le sigh* Someday...

If only my CJ8 project was done...
And by done, I mean started.

 

Cabin boy, I mean cook and deck hand on a barge tug. Quite a change from the railroad.

 

Yeah, unfortunately after getting the tent mounted and opened up finally I found some damage from shipping. Nothing major but the ladder mount was bent, a few small holes in the fabric and the aluminum base is folded up a tint bit in one corner. Sent a couple emails out to REI and Tepui so hopefully I can get it cleared up pretty quick though.

 

Did you buy with the 20% off member coupon?

 

Damn thats too bad. Did you message Boxrocket on here? Hes always been great with customer service, but that sounds like more of an REI deal than Tepui overall. Could be wrong though

 

Yes indeed, had to wait like 3 weeks to get the grey one though

 

I look forward to your thoughts on the tent once you've had it on a few outings

 

From the shipping label it looked like it went through a couple REI shipping hubs so they got the nasty gram. I'm more hoping Tepui can just help with a patch or something on the fabric or maybe they can get REI to hook me up with some sheets or a weather hood

Just start ordering parts and that'll get the project t going least that's my hope since I picked up most of the suspension parts to get me going on finishing up the frame
