Oregon and Washington BS thread

I was thinking about it. Perrin Performance is having a garage sale of their scratch/dent parts for Subarus and Evos. Their shop is right outside the grounds where the air show is taking place

 

I think it was someone else

Saturday's my bro's birthday, so I'm tied with that.

I will be driving by the airshow several... SEVERAL times on Sunday. The new place is between Jackson School Road and Brookwood. I'm hoping no one but me and my 'movin crew' is going to be on JSR, and 26 isn't too bad. We have my taco, a trailer, and two fullsize Dodges. Also have an Escalade with 8' of interior room at my disposal if we need more

 

Alright, maybe I could be seen in a Kia

 

Looks like the front of the old BMW Z8!

 

Wish me luck, I'm about to go spend the afternoon in the garage putting a bumper on the truck...

 

You don't get my good luck blessing until you show us some damn pictures of this bumper

 

We did but this bitch is heavy! It didn't align its self up too well either when I was bolting it together this afternoon. It has me questioning the quality of the overall product a little. I didn't think I would have to drill out holes or contort the steal so much to get it to fit properly.

Anyone want to help me put this beast on?

 

And I bet you know a bunch of other guys that have trucks that could assist!

Where at on JSR? Not too far from my house.

 

Lol I saw him too. James was going north on Cornell

 

anybody on here from klamath falls or within the area (100 miles)

 

Anybody wanna buy my rear TRD Bilstein shocks? They only have 8k miles on them, asking like $115 OBO..I'll meet somewhere

 

Their are 2 members their. Soon to be one tho. Relentlesstaco amd timicha. Both are also vendors here.

 

So I was thinking about this earlier. Can most of you (in the portland area) spot each others trucks when driving if you see them? I need to get a TWorld sticker for mine

 

Zach's truck is obvious. lol Joe's rig is pretty close to mine but other then that no. Not at all. I do see a lot of nice street Tacoma's in the area. There is at least three different 2nd gen's in my little apartment hood with 20's and lots of little "beauty" mods.

 

Hmmm it should line up ok. My first gen went together easy enough once I got the pieces to line up right lol. As for mounting to the truck... me and my buddy did it... we used a floor jack to help hold most of the weight on and balanced it from there... helped to get the four bolts to the truck installed easier. Make sure you space it down with some washers... mine still needs to go lower because I'm still hitting at full flex. After this run, you can kinda see below the driver's light where it rubbed the little crappy plastic piece below the headlight a bit... also rubs the fender flares slightly on both sides. I'll probably add two more washers to each side giving it about 6 washers total if I remember right.

 

If its modded and I've met you a couple times in person, yes. If you're stock then nope hehe you blend in with the general population.

X2..Zachs(04LTTacoma) racoon looking(from the front) LT tacoma is pretty obvious along with James(jammdog) white double cab long bed..just got to look at the grille and how far the tires stick out. Mikes(chickenmunga) is pretty easy as well..silver double cab with relentless front bumper aNd sliders. Once Jason(kalamakid) has his AP bumper on it'll be easy to identify him even though I personally haven't met him in person yet. James #2 (chazjb) 1st gen is pretty easy to identify also but not sure where he's been.

I'm sure I can spot singlefin if I were to see him also with his AP hybrid bumper

 

I've got to start looking for more Tacomas around here. I've got a huge (I think its 12x12) WSU logo on the drivers side rear window. That's my "identifier"n right now

 

If the bumper doesn't help I also have a lot of desert pin stripes and some good scuffing on the passenger side from a little run in with a clay mud hole, and an old yellow lab drooling out the window of my shell.

Oh yeah, the other day I was running on Swan Island and saw a white 2nd Gen DC with a AP Hybrid bumper...first time I've seen someone else with one.

 

Never seen any of you guys around, except Zach he's obvious lol..but I do see a lot of modded Tacos, not just a few mods like TW worthy mods but none of them have been you guys

EDIT: I'm always lookin for for other modded Tacos on the road
