PNW EXPEDITION MEET THREAD

Well that's 4.
Wanna call it officially on like donkey kong.

 

Damn I work Sunday's. Sucks to be me...LOL! If u guys ever do another one on a Friday or Saturday (Hopefully a Saturday I don't work) LMK I'd be down. Hopefully I'll have my Pelfreybilt bumper, skid and Prinsu racks on by then. Still waiting for them to get done...LOL!

 

Oh man. Now I gotta wash my truck for Sunday.

Oh that sucks you can't make it. Next time then.

 

Next month or so is just a no go for me. Im a buyer and its my preseason time so long weeks and lots of travel. Plus my in laws are miving up from Socal so gotta help them some. Bright side is once they are up I have childcare making meets easier to attend.

 

Yup all good next time. Gotta make the easy money baby sitting machines Plus I'm on a diet til Oct 1st anwyays. I'm doing a bodybuilding show. Would suck to just watch u guys eat and drink while I cant...LOL!

 

Yeah I would pound an extra burger in front of you if you were there lol but seriously that's awesome. Takes a lot of discipline! The only lifting I do are pints.

 

I might be able to still make it Sunday but I'll be late maybe won't get there until 1pm ish.

I am taking my daughter to the zoo on Sunday morning now.

Had to rearrange things with the kiddos mom.

 

Shit I might be down for this.

 

Work Sundays

 

Going through the 26 tunnel eastbound is no peaches n' cream, either Alternating sides of the river every now and then would be good to make it work for everybody.

I'll try my best, though midday is when I'm usually up to something.

 

Alternating for sure. HUB is on Powell I was hoping that would be better for the west guys.
Yeah ur gonna be hanging w TW peeps mid day

 

I'm in for Sunday as well.

 

Does anyone local here has a spring compressor or can help me put my front shock and spring together? I got all the hardware already. Thanks

 

I'd help ya out. You can "rent" the 2piece spring compressor for free from Oreilly's. But what coils are you running?
I did it on one set and with the tall coils it was super sketchy man. The compressors were bending and it took a few tries I though the whole thing was gonna explode so I even twisted my body around to protect the family jewels. LOL
The next time I took them off & to a shop with the wall mounted screw style and they charged me like $25 to assemble them was way quicker & safer. But shop has gone out of business.
I sure Les Swhab could do it or Gresham Offroad. If you wanted to come up we could take it off & use my truck to run them some where.
Or you could stop & get the dyi set & I'll stand back & watch you lol.

 

I've used this method a few times and it works great. Way less sketchy than a spring compressor.

 

Thanks for the tip Bro, I'm actually appalled that I'm not smart enough to figure that out myself.
Khae I got the stuffs to do it that way if you wanna.

 

I got the old man emu with the 886 springs. It's all still in the box haven't even opened it yet.

 

I do got the cheapo spring compressor used it once on a truck spring but it was sketchy like you said. It was bending it. And these are heavier spring as well. Not really in a hurry to put them either. I'm still waiting on getting the rear leaf pack befor actually putting it all on in the truck.

 

So how many people are showing up on Sunday? Add your name to the list it could be great.

I'm planning on it.
