NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Solid choice!

 

I think it was 2 screws to pull, then carefully pull the power window/lock control the right way to unplug it. I want today that I broke clips on that pulling it off. Once the screws are out, start at the bottom and pull out to get the skin loose. I think there are a couple finger holes to tear it off easily on the bottom. I had practice on other cars before I started playing with the truck.

The tow mirrors I had were great. I could actually see the back of the trailer with them. I also folded them out when I was using my utility trailer (4x8 single axle) getting hay. I still had a hard time seeing behind the hay for the way I loaded it. That was also about 2 ton between truck and trailer.

I've got some basic mirrors in my garage still I think from my 2nd gen.

 

i was thinking heated mirrors as i dont have covered parking. but thanks for the offer.

 

Found it on OfferUp, got it for $240. Guy hit it with bed-liner. I don’t really like it, I will probably strip it and refinish it later.

 

Starting ABS round two. Going on the assumption that lack of bed adhesion was the only problem.
EDIT: Round two failed. The raft secured fine but the part didn't. May be the gcode itself.
Switched back to the PLA for now.

Here is a iPhone 8 with Otterbox Defender case mount. Thingaverse file. Fit is great but the print needs some more post production work (printed medium resolution). I need some more nuts and screws for the Ram mounts before I can mount it.

 

Anyone heading out this weekend?

 

Searching right now for trails around Crystal Mountain area.
Might hit Bethal Ridge. Not too exciting but great views.

 

Damn your heading a long ways. I think Sunday I’m going to take my dad up Mt. Clemens, been a while for him since hes been up there.

 

Going that way Saturday. A little trail driving, some Ardbeg Uigeadail, and some dispersed camping. Then taking the gondola up to the top of Crystal for some lunch and hike down on Sunday.

 

Anyone gone up Little Bald Mountain off 420?

It’s a fun area, I would run clover springs trail if you go that way. It’s not hard in the dry at all. Has some good views at the top.

 

I’ll have to wait until i got all my tools and shit back in and the tent loaded on, took it all out so I’m not tempted to do anything


Should be returning to work on Monday

 

Has anyone here ran 4w637, I know there’s a few right spots and was wondering if a 2nd gen would fit. All the people I know that ran this are now older or have CJs

 

Headed up Naches trail in Greenwater but we’re taking dirt bikes too.

 

I live up there for 7-10 days the day after Thanksgiving, Elk hunting. All I know is it’s cold and it snows a shit load. Lol, I can’t remember if I’ve ever seen it in gravel.

 

I'm thinking Summit and Tripod Flats with a stop at Funny Rocks. Although, I bet it will be busy.
I forgot about Trails Offroad.

Yeah... not familiar with the real road names or features. There’s the meat locker rd, the rd you where missed the spike two years ago, where we got stuck rd and the road below camp.

 

Tripod is super fun. Summit depending on which parts you run cool. I typically run tripod from the eburg side to 410 since it’s only like 3 miles from my place

 

Nice. How long would you say it is from Ellensburg all the way through to 410?

 

I would say maybe 2-3 hours depending on how many people you hit on the trail. ( if running tripod ) - it only takes maybe 45mins-1 hour if you take the 1701 road.
