NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Which trail at Liberty Mountain was this?

Yeah I like the idea of either riding along for my first wheeling trip or coming with on an exploration forest trip and moving up to tougher trips..

Now waaaaaait, I see what you did there

Doesn't he!!

 

Does anyone in the Tacoma-Seattle area have a spanner wrench that would work for Icons?

BTW, the Auto Hobby shop on JBLM is rediculous. I told the guy I needed a 3/4 wrench to tighten ONE bolt on my bumper and he made me sign in, park in a stall, and sign out a tool locker (without saying how much it was going to be). It took me 5 min and he charged me for 1 hour stall time ($4). I was like "Seriously?!" and he goes "We have to stay open somehow..."

$4 mistake = never going there again.

 

Why did you go on base? Do you not carry a small supply of tools with you?

 

I do and I have a 3/4 socket/ratchet but no 3/4 wrench.

I am doing my "Annual Tour" on base right now. I am here until the 24th.

 

Sucks. I think I have a 3/4 wrench somewhere around here.

Have fun on base. I think I will be going there less than you, and you aren't even active duty anymore.

 

Riding along can be just as fun (if not better) than taking your own. No worries about damage .... Id say ride with someone more experienced since they know a lot of the tricks for certain obstacles and youll learn a lot.

Im anxious to get my stock taco out there though!

 

Yeah I just want to see what they're like, so far I've just seen pretty gnarly Youtube videos of trips. I'll show up to meet n greets until a trail trip gets planned to get a feel for it

 

Paint a scary picture to get others to buy aftermarket armor which they later don't like and sell to me cheap, but also throw the big bad things out first so as somebody new hits the trails and gets off easy, then it is a good day.

The recovery gear we got to find out with such a long winching spot.

Of course the drinking is after the driving. Growlers are not conducive to drinking while driving.

I don't know any of the trails we hit at liberty. Will, can you chime in on this? You had your GPS out for it.

I'm anxious to see you out there running your truck around and finally scratching it. You probably have enough Griots products though to take any scratches back out though.

 

Any of these them, Will, or Zach?

Don't crucify me for the link, just ignore the Jeep stuff

 

I love the nwjeepn site!!! I've found a ton of good info. map. resources. and trail ideas from them.

 

pinstripes are pretty much the norm
be careful, go slow, you'll be good
if you don't feel comfortable doing something, don't do it

 

When are you finally going to show up to something

 

middle of october

 

Mandatory over time?

Ive gotta go to CO Springs mid nov through late dec.

 

nope
been going to Judo and BJJ 3-4 nights a week, tournament in October
and playing with the motorcycle.

 

I'm down to ride along on a trail.. Matt ill be shotgun

 

She has a little pinstipping from overgrown alley ways and scrapes from dumb people that cant drive in seattle, but nothing trail related yet lol

I need to break in the 4wd still. But i don't think id do a trail like liberty from sounds of it.

I welcome anyone to ride along especially if they have good tips

 

Dammit Troy!!!
