    I am sure someone in the group will have a good compressor, if you ask nicely, and offer liquid tribute :D

    Eh, see my Build Thread sig link. Too many mods to list.
    I ordered a Viair 85P. Their site indicates it should work for my size tires. Guess the proof will be in the pudding. It should be here on Saturday...kinda like to have my own equipment.

    And a logistical question: On a run like this, what do females do in the way of a bathroom? This is a state park, right? Are there outhouses? My copilot will most likely want to know and not want to hear "Here, use this Gatorade bottle".

    Week chocks aren't necessarily there to stop a truck from moving forward, but will certainly help, and if one is in the situation, extra help can be a good thing.

    I still am going.

    I have the cheapo harbor freight pump, and it does okay for my 245/75/16. I just can't ask it to do more than airing up more than my 4 tires from 20 to 40 psi without a cool down break.

    Also, good point on the female toilets. I plan on having a female copilot.

    It's a state forest.... Hence there are trees. :D
    I always keep a roll of tp in my truck for such occasions.

    my truck told me it needs a day off from my @ss and vice verse so I won't be attending either of the bundlef*ck events Sunday. I gotta get the bike out and ready for the superbowl.
    y'all have fun.

    Hey guys, I hope it's okay if I post my question here. I'm installing a lift on my 2nd Gen at home (5100's, OME coils and AALs) and am looking for a reputable alignment shop in the Kitsap area.

    When I lifted my XJ (w/ adjustable control arms), I took it in to Goodyear in Silverdale and those guys had no clue (they were happy to take my money though). I had to bring it back home and re-align it myself in the garage (levels, angle finders, etc.). I got it within spec but I was pissed!

    I don't want to go through that again. Is Firestone any better? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Firestone can be hit or miss, but the lifetime alignments sure are useful!

    I suppose I could. Hadn't really considered it. I'll give Heartland Toyota a call and see how much that'll run.

    This. Lifetime alignment for something like $180. I've had it on my Honda for 14 years now...haven't paid for a single alignment after that.

    I have a lifetime one with Firestone. You just need to find one that is somewhat competent. It's lifetime, so you can go back after every off road trip, every lift adjustment, etc. For the price of 2 alignments at a dealer you can get a lifetime one... Just my 2 cents

    I go to the Silverdale one with no issues. I also have the lifetime. After the lift, they were surprise that the alignment was good.

    Hey guys, I live in the Port Angeles area and am usually going up Slab Camp for a quick offroading run. The trails that I know of stay pretty local and don't go too deep into the mountains but Im wanting something that goes a bit deeper and makes it a bit more of a trip that would take a whole day for some friends and I. I know a lot of you aren't from my area, does anyone know of any trails like that on the Peninsula?

    I'm really debating on the Tahuya run, but it'd be an hours drive just to get to the trail and Im kinda strapped on money. Just out of curiosity (not just for this run) anyone know how many people in this thread live on the Olympic Peninsula?

    Those are pretty sweet little rigs; guess they're not very durable, though.

    They've definitely got some weird stuff going on as far as what freqs. they can TX on (out of HAM bandwidth) technically illegal.

    Assuming you've got your license.
