NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Never heard of them, but I've also never had this issue before.

 

Never mind. I just went grab there info and they have gone out of business

 

I've been told right way spring in tacoma is a good place.

 

Throw a couple new Dakar packs and some hammer hangers in there and well... Bob's your uncle

 

Already got the original archive flip kit.

 

Git springs in auburn is who we do all of our coil/leaf stuff through. They’re easy to work with

 

Those are SECKSY!

 

Is anyone well versed in the 01-04 double cab values in WA, or in general I guess... I’m really interested in making the switch from extended to double cab.

Requirements are under 100k miles (obviously the lower the better), must be 4x4 (TRD would be nice), really anything but white or the two red colors and a clean title

Everything I’m seeing is around $16-20k for those requirements above. Is that pretty typical that the guys who know the market?

 

Those prices are probably on the higher end IMO and could definitely get reduced to $15k max for what you're looking for. Are you set on strictly a 1st Gen DC? For $16-$20k you could find a decent 09-11 model.

I searched for over a year before I bought my Tacoma. I was originally trying to find one like you are, but seeing what people were asking for 1st Gen DC's, a 2nd gen wasn't much more. For some reason in the PNW Tacoma's hold an above average market value vs what nada/bluebook etc value them at.

I eventually expanded my search to include all of Washington, northern Oregon and Idaho. I found mine in Spokane where the seller wasn't asking an inflated price and it was in decent condition but needed some work. He was originally asking $17k and I drove it away after paying $13.5k which I couldn't have touched that truck on the west side of this state for close to that let alone a later model 1st Gen like 03/04.

An 01-04 DC with under 100k is going to fetch a premium and can be like finding hens teeth. The prices some people ask are just outright laughable. I'd take the nada estimate, which is usually high, and the kbb estimate, which is usually low, and find a number somewhere in the middle. In the end it's only worth what you or someone is willing to pay regardless of what some website says it's worth.

 

I was changing my oil on this weekend and noticed a leak coming off the front cover of the engine - probably this timing cover oil leak that has been reported before in these 2016s. Truck is still under warranty, so I should be covered. I had my free service done by Rodland in Everett, but would prefer not to drive all the way up there. Is Lake City Toyota trustworthy?

 

You had my curiosity but now you have my attention. Bolt on?

 

Not quite yet. I need to buy a $650 drill first...

 

Hmmm... Mag drill?

 

Low profile mag drill that takes annular cutters up to 1 3/8"

 

With enough interest, deposits for sliders could fund the drill

 

Bolt ons....

 

Sounds like a Pelfrybuilt strategy.

 

Took the words right out of my head.

 

Yeah, that terrifies me.

 

We'll never mind I guess haha
