Oregon and Washington BS thread

That's bigger then mine, really nice buck! Where at?

 

No kidding! I followed your advice though and camped near Mt. Emily off the summit road exit last Thursday night. Pulled in around 12:30am and was back on the road by 6:00 Friday morning. I never heard any wolfs but I woke up twice from a scream that I suspect came from some large mountain cat? Not sure..but it definitely didn’t sound like a wolf. Thanks again for the suggestion on a camping spot. After putting just over 3k miles on the truck we just teturned home today.

 

Nothing like the lullaby of a screaming lion! I have a tag, might head up there in the morning and see if I can cut some kitty tracks in the fresh snow.

 

Welcome to the 1stCivDiv, safe travels.

 

Cut the Christmas tree for Pioneer Square today

 

I couldn’t imagine driving that truck in Portland.

 

I’m so thankful I don’t have to be the guy to drive it into Portland

 

It's only a 53' trailer...

 

I thought I would share a few pictures of the drive. These are all from western Colorado.

 

Looking at options for 2-3" lift on my 2017 DCSB. Any recommendations for shops in the Portland to Wilsonville area?

 

@Coddington99

When you get settled, there's a few members including myself who aren't terribly far apart. We should totally get a drink/food and you can meet some of us asshol....i mean gentleman.

 

Cool pics! Colorado is pretty cool.

 

I got mine from Accessory Outfitters in Beaverton/Aloha (185th & TV Highway) and Brian took good care of my questions and needs and the work seems top notch so far.

 

Wheeler's off road is a great option, they're pretty far south from you but still in Oregon, last time I talked to them (2013) they weren't doing shop work, but they still have a great website and you might save on some on shipping. @YotaDan

Edit: They can do coilover assemblies.

Edit#2: According to their website, it looks like they have a third party shop that does professional installations, however, coilover swaps aren't difficult, especially with helping hands and/or someone who has done it before.

 

Metal tech 4x4 is in Newberg. They're a bit more spendy, and typically do most work on FJs. But still worth looking into.

@MT4x4

 

Unfortunately Yotadan is no longer with wheelers off road and I'm not sure who took over for him as TW rep. I do recommend their shop for suspension purchase. Tax free and fast shipping with great customer service.

As for shops you can try like the folks have mentioned: Metaltech in Newberg and Accessory Outfitters in Aloha. There's also Superior Off road up in Gresham. No experience with them but I drive by them when going snowboarding. Or you can join the TW NW Expedition crew, meet up with them, and join them for a mod day (my recommendation)

 

Well, S***, shows you how long I've been out of the game haha. Thanks

 

Hey TW family . I'm on the east coast (SC) lol. But I'm looking for someone ( a lost family friend ) I'm pretty sure he lives in Tacoma Washington or in that area his name is Michael Dana Kohler . So any help would be very helpful

 

Does anyone have a lead on an entry level hospital job or Costco job in Salem? Looking for something good in the area that will work with my school schedule. Thanks in advance!
