NW WA Meet / BS Thread

The seal kit, new shock oil, and nitrogen. And of course a spring compressor and or new coils if needed or want to bump up the spring rate.

Fox and king use the same style fill port, Schrader, and icon uses a different style with a needle type.

 

I might have to buy them....

 

only non reservoir icon shocks use the needle fill. The RR ones are all regular schrader valve

 

Yeah I forgot about those. I'm a poor peasant with the normal non RR and non ET version. Good thing it's as easy as taking a spacer out during the rebuild to unleash that extended travel I currently lack.

 

Anyone have a go-to source for HID components besides TRS? I need to get rid of my shitty $10 Chinese LEDs I have installed in my d2s 4.0's and switch back to HID. I don't have the ballasts or bulbs anymore, or even the harness only a pair of H4-9006 adapters. I need a retrofit harness basically and bulbs. I've been looking at the 55w AC kits but prices are all over the place. The higher priced ones list having an EMI/RFI filter included vs the sub $50 kits don't. With the interference I'm currently getting from LEDs in my stereo and also CB, I definitely need a filter included. Do I just stick with a universal 55w AC ballast and run the amp-d2s connector or pony up for an actual d2s ballast? Also, bi xenon or just xenon? Since the cut off shield is what determines the output, it would seem to me that a xenon bulb is the right fit?

Any local shops that are good? Anyone purchased from HID kit pros in Issaquah? Not in a hurry and can wait till next week if I use an online vendor but I'm also the impatient type and would pay an extra ~$20 if I could get it today/tomorrow locally rather than check a tracking number till Monday.. one other reason to avoid shipping is my wife doesn't need to know either.... She has Mondays off...

 

I used xenon depot and have been happy. Not local but you could get it shipped to work

 

I'll check them out. I didn't even think about the work delivery. I usually only think of that if I'm about to buy something that is oversized or heavy and ships freight needing a forklift to receive.

 

That’s my go-to for keeping things under the radar. Too bad I can’t get ammo or uppers shipped to work. It would be entertaining to see what would happen, but probs not worth my job

 

Went out with my youngest son for a quick overnight camping trip to test out the new sleeping platform. It's a little cramped, but you can't beat how easy it is. Not a bad view from the campsite either.

Edit: forgot to mention we saw a bunch of elk, a deer, and a black bear!

 

Add a 50lb dog and youll have what the fiance and I had for 20 nights lol (space wise at least). Looks like an awesome time though!

 

Does anybody want to run Stampede pass from I-90 to Greenwater on Saturday?

 

Is that stock truck friendly without pinstripes? I'm sort of a wimp.

 

I can't even imagine adding a dog into the equation. Our 50lb dog is kind of hyper though.

 

I was just up in that area Monday and have some nice pinstripes. Nothing my orbital can't handle though.

 

This, as long as there isn't some kind of actual damage to the rod or something. It's a thing you'd be able to do yourself and then we could just meet up for the nitrogen.

 

Depends on where you go but I don’t think it meets the WO Pinstripe criteria

 

starting from I-90 side? I might be down. Would also like to shoot. A couple of us were doing around 350 yards one year.

 

Are we going to do a trip up to Gallagher head this summer? My truck should be ready to roll early august

 

Yes sir, 285/70/17 but its the same size. i have the OME leafs with the AAL in the back.

 

New snorkel is on, waiting for my other fender to show up then it’s paint time
