NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Welcome. Keep checking the north west region for meets/drives.

 

are you stationed at jblm?

 

You betcha! Don’t forget to put a gasket on the bottom. The manifold you had shipped to me came without one

 

Small bungee cord and secure it to something on the suspension. Thats honestly what I do. Cause like you I would often forget about it and raise the car or kick the damn thing over.

 

Who’s hiring mechanics?

 

hope these are your terms.

 

It is, no rush on it but I’d rather find somewhere sooner rather than later

 

I was about to say that looked like his garage...

 

When you install would you mind posting your impressions? I’d be happy to make more for other interested locals (and not so locals, lol) if there is interest

 

Yes, I know you like yours and you don’t have the tune yet. If these two add to the tune what the tune added to the stock truck it gonna be awesome. It’s not O my god, I’m gonna get whiplash power, it just pulls all the way to the next gear. After I tackled this project and the gears & lockers, I might throw a URD Equal length header on it. I was gonna go a little deep with my gears to 4:88, but I don’t think I’ll need to now if the grunt keeps going better.

 

With man trans I think 4.88 will be real overkill unless you’re on 37’s.
Those headers are on my shortlist too. You may want to reflash after these mods to take full advantage of them

 

FEELER:

Set (4) of TRD Off-Road wheels off a 2018 with 265/75R16 BFG K02 tires. 10k miles on tires but still plenty of meat left on them bones. Tires purchased from Costco so they also have the nitrogen air. Never punctured/repaired.

Would sell with center caps and lugs. The valve caps are not going though. Lol

Seattle area.

 

Going to 33s?

 

agreed, I’m on 5.29’s and although very crawly, i miss being able to do 80MPH without my ears exploding.

Side note, what do you do for work?

 

Anyone have a recommendation on jack stands? I just found out my four 6-ton harbor freight ones were recalled.

I like these Torin Double lock jack stands

I was looking at those and some pro lift ones that also have the double lock. Thanks for the recommendation

 

Healthcare Finance, if you were asking me

 

Does anyone on here do vinyl wrapping or know any decent places? I want to wrap some interior trim pieces but my hands are as steady as Michael J Fox lol

 

This is just the article I was wanting to read while I'm currently rolling around under my truck and have been for the last 3 months.
