NW WA Meet / BS Thread

No wheel

 

That tire is about .6" larger diameter and .4" wider and almost the same weight as what I have currently. You should be fine.

 

well someone has a slight lift on their 3rd Gen Taco now @vorkuta775

 

Heard he has some pretty sweet UCAs on there

 

Just a wee bit thanks for the help dude. Enjoy that whiskey

 

The Wu Master.

 

Well crap. Wrong lube in the wrong hole.

 

In for the shenanigans

 

There's so much here that I just didn't need to know!

 

So there I was just laying there looking at the hole, I was too excited to even move. I realized I better get going before it's too late, so I just grabbed the tip and shoved it in there and started pumping away. Next thing I know there's gear oil coming out of the transmission.

I put the hose in the atf fill hole and not the tcase fill hole.

Good thing I didnt have the transmission pan on otherwise I probably would have filled that fucker up with 90wt. I'm on the fuckin home stretch now!

 

Holy shit at least it was an easy fix and right away. Nice puns by the way
I took a blast of t case fluid to the face 2 weeks ago. Scalding of course

 

Ouch! When used to rock a rock drill, there's 100s of hydraulic hoses running everywhere on them and they're essentially ticking time bombs. When you least expect it a hose will blow either just feet away or above your head showering you in usually a fine mist of oil, to where you might not notice at first, and then it looks like you're at the tanning salon as you start to turn shiney bronze. Then there's the times when they'll just explode and depending on the pressure and hose diameter end up douched with 5gallons of oil.

 

i used to run large forklifts. got to see a line blow. like a bug getting spray painted.

 

I’ll never forget the first time i changed a hyd filter on an excavator...without slacking off the hydraulics

 

Oh yeah, that's a good way to empty the system. Always gotta vent the tank.

 

Why does Washington despise mountain bikers?

What few trails there are seem boring, unkept, or otherwise trash. If you do find one, they don’t post it’s closing until you drive three hours out there and figure it out for yourself.

road bike? You’re good on the street where they can run you over. Hike? Well then you can come on over and bang their sister. MTN bike? Well then watch out for the local militias.

I’m so tired of Tiger Mountain.

 

Maybe go check out the Mazama/Winthrop area lots of trails there. Galbraith Mt. near Bellingham is another place you could check out.

 

Tiger is a shit show and sometimes the trails get a bit blown out, but its overall a decent ride. Check out Tokul East and West near Fall City.

 

That's a shit show at times. It used to be low key until EMTBA came on the scene. Some may also call it nutts to butts during peak hours with parking full by 10am.

 

Last time I went to Tokul, half the mountain washed out. Duties is always packed too.
My last bastion is Ollalie.
