NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Anyone else lose power? Shoreline area near the Costco.

 

Flickered a few times in Puyallup.

 

Two flickers here at the Renton Landing...

 

@Juforrest come fix my power

 

we are still like 3 hours away from him being in eburg

 

Lost power at the local watering hole. I'm guessing that means I lost power at the house. ‍♂️

 

Apparently TW doesn't like Android emojis

 

I live on a boat and at the moment I think I may end up floating away.

 

Not my yob! But if it makes you feel any worse mine is still on.

Knocking on wood.

 

so, welding the frame together for the trailer and I am trying to plan for the shackle/hangers for the leafs. I am using stock tacoma leaf springs (but dont have them with me)...Does anyone know the length of the stock leafs on the truck? From eye to eye? It'd be a huge help!

 

Its the same as the leafs on your truck aren't they?

 

They are...but its pisssing outside...and dark...and I didnt know if anyone on here knew the length off the top of their head haha

 

looks like about 55.4" if the random google search is correct. Nothing came up on TW via google for the length...i doubt that no one has not asked the ? before haha, must have typed it weird enough that google/TW didnt recognize it

The Dakars sitting on the floor in my garage are 52.5" eye-to-eye (center of the eyes).

 

You are lucky i had to take some stuff to the shed anyways. This is pretty much eye to eye. The tape is hooked onto the outside of the sleeve on the side you cant see. Then just pulled straight across (angle slightly down so you can see the sleeve on the other side. center to center would be ~53"

 

HUGE help gents, thank you very much

Ill post some pics here later on tonight hopefully. Last thing I gotta do for the frame is set the tongue length

 

Moving pretty quick at least! If youll need the springs and stuff (or even still want them) Im free this weekend.

 

I most def still want them. We can set up a time/place this weekend if you dont mind!

 

For the tongue length (from the front of the trailer to the end of the 2.5" x 2.5" steel I'm using) I think 47" is what I am looking at:

from the hitch center to the edge of the bumper is 35". Adding a foot to this would put it at 47" and just by looking, that looks quite far. On the flip side, I may just make it 5" and add a little front tray for shit. . .
