Northern Virginia Roll Call

@ready6delta prescribes "Change your socks, drink water"

 

I think I’m going to Order about 40 bucks worth of McDonald’s then go outside and roll around under my truck like a beached whale

 

Yup, working on my cmc again too today

 

Trying to decide on weather to go to bald mountain or Rapidan to camp......

 

Morning all...

 

You gonna box them or insain fab them ? I damn near cut my finger off trying to get the the insain fab plates to work. Not much room in there with my BAMF weld on sliders.

 

So basically a lot of laying and making weird ass noises?

You still rubbing? @Darkgoatracer must be fucking with your truck at night

 

The hilux surf Offroad guys are doing Flagpole

 

Any 3rd Gens in here do the Xenon HD upgrade to their headlights?

Since I read too much TW spam I was so inclined to purchase a set and now would like some assistance with the install. Any takers?

 

Going to try the InsainFab plates. Im going now to Home Depot to get some 6" cut off wheels

 

We are signing for our new place today, so gonna start moving shit we don't need through the week over today and tomorrow.

 

DS has it's perks and you can go to a lot of cool places... but a lot of shitty ones too. I just hope it's still not hot when in September when I get back to NOVA.. Im hoping for some highs in the 60's and 70's and lows in the 40's and 50's.... I hate the heat anymore.

 

I had minimal rubbing with Icons. Going to trim for those and reassess when i get the new coilover back and adjusted/installed

 

I thought they were in URE this weekend. I was going to go to that but work got crazy and I didn't get to leave last night. Hmmmmmm may head to flagpole then

 

aww preemptive strike. smart plan

It does, we have done some work with them, then sometimes its a shit ton of paperwork to fill out, it will probably still be hot here,

 

I know I've stressed this before, but be careful. Every time I cut with mine with no guard, I have a very healthy fear/respect for it. If you don't already have one, pick up a face mask. Having that disc come flying at your face doesn't sound fun. Also wear leather gloves (I wear welding gloves) because you don't wanna pull a mark.

I ended up buying 3 grinders from harbor freight 1 for cutoff wheel 1 for wire brush and 1 for grinding. Makes it so much easier. Get a pair of goggles and face shield or something too. regular safety glasses didn't cut it for me. I wore my welding helmet for protection but that made it hard to see.

 

Congrats!!!!
