NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Ill try to avoid drilling into them if possible and funny enough im going to use it to get a tent in Oregon city.

 

Oregon's a great place to get tents apparently. Mine wasn't used, but it did come off CVT's "scratch and dent" section.

 

Nice, Im picking up a 23zero from wanderlust overland, they're the closest retailer and I'm most likely going to have some friends in Oregon do the actual purchasing and skip the $2-300 in sales tax

 

Unbolt the mount on the axle and you'll get enough slack.

 

Some more progress, ignore the shark fin, had to run a ground lead somewhere



going to be a SHITTON of tack welding once it’s in and then a bunch or seam sealer to be safe.

 

Anyone else going to the open house at Mule this weekend?

 

Yes I'm in the military. Pretty stoked to get out there.

 

Now I will, typically save 10%

 

Didn’t know that was going on.

 

Driver side welding is done

 

awesome work! do mine, do mine!

 

there’s not enough money to make me do this again...will consult for beers though

 

Has anyone been out Forrest Service road 54 off 90 recently? I'm wondering how far you can get before the snow gets hard to manage.

 

Last plate going in

 

Gonna be one of those projects when you're done you don't ever ever ever want to do again?

 

Pretty much. There are definitely a few things I’d do differently next time around, like not chase an inch or two on the inner wheel well, it made me spend an extra 2-3 hours figuring out a complex compound bend

 

I am done though, prep then seam seal and undercoat.



also, i like to think i can weld...but FUCK this thin ass sheet metal

 

Looks like you have a little rub there too

 

Time to make yourself a set of beadlocks...
