NW WA Meet / BS Thread

why you at my work?

edit: I see it probably wasn't you that took the pic. That Runner just recently started showing up here. The other Tacoma is a spacer lift and stock UCA's, probably not on TW.

Fucking A, work has about 10 parking spots for overheight vehicles so it's a race each morning to see who can get here the earliest. Need a commuter car.

 

FYI:

 

I want that cvt too but I need a canopy for that to even fit since short bed and bed rack that only goes up to trim wont do

 

Well you're going to have me down there next month because we're moving to NP5 in June

 

Well, didn't go camping or stripe my truck, but I AM in St Martin, and here are some shots of some local trucks. There are a lot of cool vans as well. 1st is a rover pu cool and unusual. Mitsubishi unibody they say are tough, rear lock and wierd front end like an old bronco II. Euro ford ranger 3.2 liter diesel, hiLux 3.6 gas.

 

I really wish they had some of these trucks in the states, I had a 5-speed Mitsubishi when I was in Jordan like that black one and there really fun to drive.

 

Anyone have a spare ecgs tool availble to borrow? I may take a crack at replacing the bushing before I decide on the suspension kit.

 

@chanes8cwu currently has mine, you might see if you can pick it up from him.

 

Yeah, he posts on the 4Runners of WA page quite often. Seems like a nice guy, but I dunno. My friend bank is full. Until someone dies or moves on, no more room for deposits.

 

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, seems like Mule outfitters in issaquah carries the bushing so if I can save by not paying shipping I'll probably buy the part and install it in a bit. Any suggestions on shops to go through if I do order suspension ? I'm wanting to install everything myself just wondering if u save on shipping by going through shops or anything like that. Also here's the specs of what I would like to do, have done tons of research on here and feel like this best suits my budget and off roading needs. I like the stock height/suspension but worry about suspension sag with bumper/winch, canopy additions in the future which is the only reason I think I need to do an aftermarket lift.

Front: OME 887 coils w/ ome 90021 shocks , light racing uppers , taco lean spacer
Rear: Dakars w/ ome shocks

Thanks!

 

Just have ot call around for best pricing. Local and other vendors. SDHQ, Downsouth Motorsports, Wheelers Off-road, Head Strong Off-road....all are good options to least give a call and see what they quote you.

 

Just emailed Trasharoo because I broke one of the triglides. They emailed me back within about 3 minutes and are going to send out a replacement triglide no charge.

to Trasharoo and excellent customer service.

 

I've got one.

 

10.0% sales tax is likely to be much higher than shipping.......

 

Especially with many places offering free shipping on big $$$ items these days.

 

Soooo, I might have just "accidentally" bought an FJ80 (1996 LX450 to be exact). Anything I should know?

 

That I'm jealous

 

You should accidentally 3 link it and just happen to throw some 40's on it

 

Pics!
