NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Pretty sure I read that he sold it but I may be wrong

 

Hes not willing to meet ... i might as well buy it new it would cost me 50 bucks to drive there and back ... these are hard to come by used ... everyone must like theres

 

Oh. well if you ever put in an arb it will need lower pressure

 

Why not go aftermarket like a Yakima one? Yakima's can hold more weight than the OEM ones

 

Would suck to wait, but I'd wait for Grey. Not a huge orange fan. Weather sucks anyways probably wouldn't use it much now anyways

 

Exactly what Cam said, only advantage of having orange is if I ever got stuck/broke down and needed to be rescued, all I would have to do is open the tent and it would be easy to spot from a helicopter or something.

Plus in the mornings when the light comes in it'll be a bit brighter with the orange reflecting light more than grey. Ill stick with the grey

 

Probably running hoses that aren't meant for the pressure?

 

All of the hoses that I used were 3/8" rubber hoses rated at 300 psi. It could possibly be the fact that I used adjustable hose clamps. I think I should be using crimping hose clamps.

 

Was wondering if anybody still plans on heading out this weekend? ProPhaze I saw you posted about headin up to find some snow... I have never heard of the two places you mentioned. It would be good to finally meet some of you guys and get out on Saturday. Let me know cause I'm down to go!

 

...I miss the PNW TW crew

 

You.... You... I've been saying how I want to wheel all week long and no one responds, then I make a plan to go to Spokane to visit for the first time in 5 years and then, only then does someone and even a local yakima guy say he wants to go. Wtf haha.
Hey what don't you meet up with me and butcher on Sunday? May do a mini mod day, I'm coming back on Sunday.

 

Hey man that sounds good! I wasn't really sure what I was going to be up to earlier this week. I just got jaw surgery a couple weeks ago so I sound like im a mumbling idiot, but I can get around mumble work on trucks and drink beer! One of these days I will get out with you guys and get the truck some exercise. I am thinking about a place called Funny Rocks soon, once I get my sliders welded on. I will try to jump on the forum more often, not good with keeping up n the web!

 

^ on the web or phone..... I'll PM yah my contact info so you can shoot me a call if you end up getting together Sunday.

 

Heard funny rocks is prett extreme, may want bumpers all around too before that one. Sounds goo though

 

Anyone know a silver dcsb sport running ome lift, arb front bumper? Was an 05 to 08. Also had sliders.

Passed him heading north on 167 a bit ago.

 

how extreme is extreme??

 

It's all dependent on where you go there. One section is some 'rolling hills' made of slick rock with a north/south running fissure or two through the middle, ending with a cliff face to the south. The fissures can be difficult the closer you drive to the cliff, but the majority of the area is just a time when you can articulate your suspension.
The second section to the north is sort of a cliffside that you can climb. It's basically the picture below. There's a small canyon of sorts slightly to the left outside of the photo.



This is one of the harder parts of the north area. completely avoidable unless you are the type magnetized to these situations

Proof that you don't need anything beyond stock to get there, The dent predates the trip. He needed some lift here for the line he took, but could have gone around.

 

There is a lot of trails around the funny rocks area! I have been up there with a bunch of jeep buddies from my work. with a lifted truck there is a lot you can do up there... But ya I wouldn't do a lot of the lines I have seen some dudes do without a little bit of armor. There is quit a bt of FS road and some great views up there!!

 

hmm I would like to do something this weekend. No ideas yet. Maybe just drive around looking for rigs to recover with my new winch. hahaha

 

Just got an email from AllPro, my new rear end is going to be at least two to three more weeks, damn!
