NW WA Meet / BS Thread

$199.99 ?!?!?!?! Where did you get that from?!

 

Pssst. Thats an empty box.

 

Ahh, still seems like a good deal. That's pretty nice cardboard!

 

sign me up

 

I also have the Warn M-8000s, with a 6000lb truck. I carry two snatch blocks with me and 100 ft winch line extension. Hasn't failed me yet but sure, I could go for a 10k at some point.

 

....is not!

I’ll sell it! Even cut 50% off just for you! Haha

 

I have it! its awesome man!

 

This^^^

I was witness the @NorthwestCruiser 's winch start without him doing $hit to the wireless controller on a snow run on North Mt in the Darrington area (the run with 20 trucks and the dude with the Jeep on 40" beadlocks and leaking purple steering fluid).

 

I remember that. i have the same wireless remote but hasn't happened to me yet. I do carry the wired controller with me though.

 

Which line extension did you get? I really need to get a new one just for the truck since the one I had turned into more of a work line (its been dragged around and against crap) than something i'd want to pull a vehicle with.

 

if I ever get around to finishing my accessory rewire, I'll be running mine through a Blue Sea switch to keep the power cut when not in use.

 

can't remember the brand. It's synthetic, bought it at Mule.

Gotcha

Thanks

 

Is this a buy group, cuz im in

 

Truck is dead. turn the key and the dash barley comes on. Hook it up for a jump dash and everything comes on, won't crank even alittle and the dash starts to dim again.

Obviously electrical problem. My question is where should i start looking?

This morning i had enough time while the wife got ready to check the fuses, battery charge and connections. Didn't see any blown fuses, battery was at 12.8 (ign off), no loose connections.

Drove yesterday just fine no issues or anything concerns.

 

When you hooked the other rig up, it was running? If it's a dead battery you should hear the idle change on the other rig when you hooked it up. If it does, then let it sit like that with the other rig charging it for 10 minutes or so, then try again. If you don't hear the idle change, you have a bad connection.

 

Yes it was, did, and i let it sit for about 6 minutes. then left it hooked up while trying to turn it over. It dimed less, but still wouldn't turn over.

 

My guess is a combination of a bad battery and bad connections at the terminals. Smallish jumper cables?
