    Well I’m glad to see other fathers getting there kids to learn some trade skills , welding fabing , wood working mechanics , there will be fewer and fewer as time goes on I think it’s important stuff to know , maybe don’t do it for a living like my self but knowing how to is important I think . Good for you

    If he's not planned on driving it much between now and the 861s, yeah just go for the 861s.

    Has he considered Coastal Offroad yet? Been looking at one myself

    Coastal Offroad is the weld together kit correct? They are located in WA. Trenton makes trips up to Washington pretty often because they still have their house up there and his wife is still reserve out of Ft Lewis.

    I have considered that... for me... and give Robert my Trail Gear lol

    Now we wait for the fire roads to open :pout:

    And then wait for them to get closed back down in 4 days because fire danger.










    Sorry... that was being negative.
    My day started with burning my thigh do to a piece of shit lid on my coffee cup. Half the cup spilled on my leg... the rest was pitched out the window into the parking lot of the gas station.

    We're headed up 1N04 on Sunday. Going to attempt to come back via 3N01, seeing what gates are unlocked.

    Main objective on 1N04 is to see if we can find a phone... anyone want to join the scavanger hunt?

    I'm not sure I have that tool anymore. I know we broke one and John had to get one from someone else when we did his.

    I wonder what the actual service tool looks like for that... and how much it costs.

    I swear we must have done 10 of those things, and the ECGS tool is bearly better than Harbor Freight quality.
