Idaho BS thread in the PNW

Well it's warming up finally. Anyone taken any trips up the owahees? I'm thinking Leslie's Gulch, or Silver City this weekend.

 

Ive finally got out fishing a few times. Ive caught my best Pike last week. Other than that no trips for me yet

 

I went fishing near Wenatchee with my dad a week and a half ago. We were on the lake for about 2 hours. Dad got 5 small fish (4 rainbows, 1 perch) to the boat and threw them back. In going down the lake, I caught a good size rainbow and kept it. The wind was blowing 30 mph constantly, and in turning the boat around, dad let his line out to get caught up in the prop. I was able to save the lure but by the time we made it back up the lake a little (going into the wind) Dad was soaked from the constant splash into the waves.

I'm still up for a wheeling trip soon, but looking for E. WA or N. ID.

 

haven't had this thing for 24 hours and have a programmer, lift, onboard air/ airbag set up that can be controlled from the cab, and other little goodies for it.

 

what year is it?

 

2003

 

Been up in McCall the last 2 weekends dicking around in the woods. Renting a RZR next weekend to do some more exploring, my boyfriend thinks if we rent one I'll want to buy one, we'll see how that goes.

 

Anyone have the space, time, tools to help me install CVs and wheel bearings/hubs on my second gen? My apartment is not the place. I have the parts and know how just no jack or place to install. Afraid the local dealer would charge me an arm and leg to do it. Tried my buddies driveway but the angle was too steep to safely put it on jack stands.

 

Was in Mountain Home and the surrounding area back in May and I fully credit that trip to converting me over to a truck guy. Granted I was driving F-150's and Ram's but nothing beat gunning it out on some of the dirt/gravel roads around Bruneau. Boise was pretty nice too. Would not complain if I had to move there.

 

Hello fellow TW members, looking into relocating to the Boise/ meridian area in the next couple years and trying to decide if bringing my 2wd race truck/prerunner would be worth it? I know there's lots of 4x4 trails around there, but is there any high-speed 2wd action?

I have jack stands and most if not all the tools you would want, plus a driveway. My weekends are currently Sunday Monday, but that will change in the near future to Saturday Sunday. Feel like making the trek north of Spokane?

 

Where in Idaho do you live? I'm in Idaho Falls, though I'm not going to have free time until after the 4th...

 

Sand Dunes are about 4 hours from Boise, beyond that I wasn't aware of much else in Idaho. There is lots of dirt biking trails and such, but very little go fast trails for trucks... especially nothing that would even remotely challenge your rig...

 

You could do some prerunning at owyhee mtn's and Pleasant Valley.

 

Thanks Smar but I think you may be a little far.

I am in Twin Falls and have a 3" lift. Do you have a jack tall enough Brady? That is the other problem I ran into when I tried to do it. My friend's jack wasn't nearly tall enough.

 

Yeah. I have some floor jacks and stands that will lift it up enough.

My wife if from Hazelton so I head over your way every couple months or so.

 

Yeah that's what I was afraid of, guess it's time to go shopping for a 4X4

 

2003. 5.9 cummins HO with a 6 speed trans. slowly pushing up to 400 horse.

 

very nice!

 

I am in Salt Lake right now. Heading up to Port Angeles WA. No set route.
