Oregon and Washington BS thread

I can see the smoke from the fire from brownsville. Atleast it's not out of control just yet. ...

 

This heat blows

 

I'm going to be spending time at the coast this weekend. The high is going to be 71. I may need to bring a coat

 

The coast would have been a way better idea, I am headed for Chelan tomorrow where the forecast is saying triple digits all weekend.

 

I concur with Bennett707.

 

@frycook would you say the windshield angle of your landcruiser is similar to your taco?

I bought a snorkel, should have asked before

 

Thinking about buying a first gen Toyota pickup. Anyone got some insight besides watch for rust and bkien Head gaskets?

 

Bought a landcruiser snorkel for your taco? I would say the taco is more laid back than my 80.

 

Only one way to find out if it'll work

 

Pro tip: You can make anything work with enough sawzall blades and bondo.

 

My favorite tools as a mechanic is a hammer and a bigger hammer

 

As an air force mechanic, a hammer and a big hammer are the best tools

 

School bus's, Air Force same difference

 

It's just nuts and bolt at the end of the day

 

If it doesn't fit I know there's a few of us Olympians who could be coerced into buying it off you.

Also, hello from Twin Harbors. I did indeed need a long sleeve shirt. I'm currently sitting on a tree stump at 55 degrees. The ride over was great. One of the guys in camp has a BBQ trailer that would make you all flip. I think it was dual axle, I'm going to see if he will let me snag a pic. Its about as big as a truck and has dual stacks, lol.

Pic of camp.

 

Looking for a bear?

 

Speaking of that I need to go get my tags, the GF and I went to the range and got the rifle sighted in

 

Taken somewhere in between Canyonville and Glendale.

 

Yeah, we are a bit smokey in Myrtle Creek.

 

Well since alignments plus is only open weekdays, I went to Les schwab today. They were able to get it close enough. Steering wheel isn't straight though. May have jumped a tooth on the rack and pinion or wacked something else pretty good.

Anyone know if steering wheel location messes with vsc/trac? Can I just pull the steering wheel and set it back on straight? Or is there a sensor in the steering column that detects if the shaft is in the right position or not? My cel is already on because of my gas cap. I'm worried if I clear the cel it will come up with a vsc/trac code....
