kappes03's Storm Trooper..ish Build (SOLD) :(

hey man, ive talked a little in the WA thread and im heading that way in DEC. how many good places to offroad is there close to JBLM? At least within a 3 hour driving radius?

 

Sweet! There's quite a few places. I have only been here since June so I haven't gone out much
I've been checking out some trials I want to hit from these sites though:

nice man. well we def gotta hit some up pending weather come jan/feb. looking forward to see the trails out west since ive been on the east coast my whole life.

 

Yeah man let me know when you get here. There's a few others in the area I live in which is south of JBLM and at least 1 I know of who works on base as well.

 

sounds good. lookin forward to gettin to WA

 

So that link is dead now... doing some looking, which one of these is 'correct'?

In the second one, he's got some weird pressure indicator... what is that? Not sure you'd know either, but hoping you can make me stop wondering.

EDIT: I'm guessing the second one is the one I want so I can get the reducer.. my snorkel has something like a 3.5 - 3.75" or so opening at the top (not taking off the cap right now, it's raining like mad)

 

The 1st one is what I got and purchased a reducer separate. I'm sure the 2nd one with the reducer would also work but I know for sure the 1st link is the model I have. I would feel better having the silicon reducer separate cuz I think the one included might be plastic.

That indicator is a dust load indicator. It let's you know when the air filter is dirty. I don't think it'll work on a snorkel but I'm not entirely sure

 

If you're looking for housing in Lacey stay away from Martin and Steilacoom. There's a mushroom farm there and it smells like complete asshole around that area

 

Huge thanks for the heads up!

 

When you get here go drive by it and you'll know what I'm talking about haha. I drive by it every morning. There's a middle school and a really nice park there too

 

that sucks for those living there or wantin to enjoy the park/school! haha

 

Normally the wind blows it north so they're safe haha

 

Aluminum CBI overland bars installed

 

Mount Shasta Extended Pioneer

 

Set up

 

Looking good buddy

 

hey get back in the TN thread. . .

 

Lookin good Mike! Get a buddy heater for the tent when it's cold out and set it in the annex, you will thank me later

 

No way I like the cold haha.

 

Did some more looking at it, the included gasket is a rubber insert reducer (40R375), which seems to cost $9 normally. As a result, I think the second option is just fine, provided the seller gets back from whatever vacation they are taking. Just gotta wait...
