Northern Virginia Roll Call

Just in case anyone is interested in following, I started my own conversion thread so I cans top blowing up this thread.

Don't have a spindle but do have tools. Prob too late now but are you good?

 

Thanks for the thought! I’m safely back in NY. Was a bit of an ordeal getting a tow late-ish on a Saturday to a dog friendly hotel. Was even more of an ordeal finding a truck and trailer to rent to tow it home. Ended up getting a 16’ Penske truck from Home Depot in Winchester and a tow dolly in Ranson WVA.

Seems like to add insult to injury my starter appears to have died so I had to winch onto the tow dolly.

Never thought I’d say I’m glad to be back in NYS

Man, starter failure as well? Didnt see it in time; otherwise would have tried to get you back to my place overnight and try to repair things sunday.

 

Someone put their build 3rd gen on BAT:

Thanks man! Maybe next time lol

 

Lookin real nice this weekend at FPK. Those that are joining, roger up again so we can start nailing down details

 

I never really committed, but I doubt I'll make it. The eyeball is gonna keep me home. Which totally sucks because I wanted to break some more stuff.

 

There will be more trips, best to play it safe and stay home. Vision isn't something to be taken lightly.

 

Indeedy. Mostly tired of being cooped up.

 

*Pretty sure* I am still in for fishing Saturday. What time are you planning to head to the lake?

 

The goal is to get there roughly around 10 or so, maybe 10:30. Just depends what time we head down from the top.

 

IM IN! Ill coordinate with anyone that needs a lead for saturday or wants to follow me for the ride up.

 

Sounds good. I am going to fish the Dry River then I will head to the lake around that time.

 

Anyone else having an absolute hell of a time with allergies this year/season? Almost every morning feels like a constant assault on my sinus.

Also, truck update--dropped it off at the dealer for round 2 of their diagnostics re: the CEL.

 

What is FPK? I am hoping to head to Peters Mill with a fellow Taco buddy sometime in the next few weeks, but work has weirdly gotten wildly intense.

 

Flagpole knob. It's beginner friendly and has primitive camping, and a lake to kayak on.

 

Wish I could join, gotta figure out this driveline/pinion sound issue post heavy leaf install...trying to get operating angles documented and appropriate shims ordered, but I don't think I'll be trail, let alone country road ready. Also hoping I didn't extend the slip length, or damage anything in the driveshaft...otherwise a Tom Woods DS is starting to look like a reality, ha!

 

Good lord yes.

 

Have you been taking anything? I started with Claritin-D, am now taking Allegra-D, and am planning on trying Costco's generic equivalent lol.
