NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Got my rear end torn apart and the housing out. The ring gear is missing six teeth, one missing on the pinion and the locker side adjuster bearing cage thing is broken and all the pins where sitting in the housing.
The new Currie housing is bolted up to the truck with nice new HD U-bolts sping plates. That's as far as I got today, it's damn cold out there!

 

We are up on north mountain and snowing good. Over 6 inches on the ground and still coming!

 

Glad you got the whole rear then. Sounds like yours was completely toast. Hope this new one holds up well for you.

 

Bummed that I am sick...

More photos???

 

Can't post any from my phone but tomorrow I'll post a bunch! Feeling any better?

 

Brrrrr

 

I wanna know the specs on COtaco's truck!

 

6 inch fabtech drop bracket with 35x12.5x17 toyo mt's. Trd sport

 

It's actually not bad. As long as you dress correctly your fine. Having a heater in the tent reaply helps though

 

Gears?

 

He can't hear me over cams damn music. I'm in my tent he's by the fire. I'll find out in the morning

 

Hahaha I miss cams music I wanna be there! But at the same time I don't CUZ cold and I have this cold

 

It's a really good time and not to cold, snowing though and supposed to throughout the night. Just been a super busy and long week for me so I'm tired and here he is blasting his music haha

 

We tried to steal Brian's chainsaw last night, when he was sleeping.

 

It was too bad you couldn't come this time Dakota, but there will always be next time!

 

I know :/ I wanna do another big trail run where we can get a little flexy. Also someone needs to edit up a sweet video from it too.

 

It was sitting in a chainsaw-shaped box right next to my ladder

Going through pics now, awesome time! Even better snow this morning. Next time Dakota!

 

Cam did a ton with his gopro

 

Alright so here it is. Such an awesome trip I wish everyone could have come. Snow was amazing, after JDAM's friend left (after the first trail) we went up North Mountain to find a camp spot, it turned pitch black right as we pulled in. Camp spot was at about 2540ft and about 6 inches on the ground that we stomped/drove over so we didn't have to stomp through deep snow everywhere. Snowed since we pulled in, through the night, and probably still is snowing.

Met up at Safeway in Arlington, this is before CoTaco08 showed up


JDAM's new Goodyear MTR's w/ kevlar, 285's.


CoTaco08 airing down


Just before a tricking corner, aired down even more. Snow on the sides was about knee deep



On the way back down the first trail we stumbled on this sight, had to get a group pic



This morning, about 28 degrees when we woke up





After eating and packing up we tried to get to the lookout at the top. Made fresh tracks through fresh snow, I was doing well until this corner. I was going through snow that was about 2.5 feet deep. Got stuck here and needed a pull to get back into the tracks (thanks JDAM!)



Over half way up my tire, past my door



The white beast



Headed out



Found that my magic pressure is 12psi for snow without blowing a bead, anything below that and I'd get nervous.

 

I live right down the street form where you guys met. I would love to go next time.
