NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Wish we could have! Just working out the kinks now. LT soaks up so much more than my King mid travel coil overs too its incredible.

 

Here are a few pics from yesterday:

 

So, who's going offroading this coming weekend? I'm home on leave for a couple of weeks.

 

I might go hit funny rocks on Saturday

 

Well i didnt really take any pictures till the end of the day but heres the better of the ones i did take.


At the trailhead


The first climb after the lake. Really wasnt bad at all if you hugged drivers side. If not well you end up with a tire in the air



Then the second hill is where whatever the heck happened to @GSPRunner happened. Broke something at that spot and kept sliding towards the trees so a quick winch to get the ass straightened out and he rolled off the hill just fine.


Everyone else who wanted to made it up pretty easy




The only place it seemed @GSPRunner couldnt manage in 2wd was this hill but a quick tug and he was up.

And that was it. Pretty uneventful but a nice day!

One another noted...my @Benson X inspired hi-lift mount decided it had enough. Think i'd used 1/8" thick aluminum (or might have been steel i dont remember) which must have just creased a bit and then with ~1.5 year of bouncing around finally had enough. O well I needed to make a new one for the fire extinguisher so Ill redo this one too. I did hear something bouncing around in the rear so glad it was just this and not something more serious!

 

I've got a 3 day weekend this upcoming weekend so I might be down for something.

 

I wanna hit funny rocks this weekend!

 

Yes how u want it?

 

Not anymore. The threads were chewed up at the end on my driver side bolt so much that the nut wouldn't thread on. @utroda had the idea of filing it down and thankfully it worked. Don't expect to take them off again for quite some time haha thanks though!

 

You might just want it for safekeeping at this point.

 

I posted it in a hurry. I'll get an extra from my buddy at the dealer for next to nothing when I go.

 

Just line the damage with dish soap and pump air into the tire. Shouldn't be too hard to locate. I actually had the same thing happen, but since I am a freak, I noticed the sound almost immediately after it happened. My driver front wheel has a nice line in it like yours, but hardly any material was taken off.

 

Anyone wanna hit up naches this Saturday? I'm going with with a buddy.

 

The scratches are pretty deep, don't feel comfortable running it even as a spare. Got a good deal on a new F5 so it's okay.

 

Going to head up funny rocks Saturday if anyone wants to go. @dakotasyota and @JDAM time to get you guys up that obstacle.

 

Brute Force

 

Yaaaas

 

How is funny rocks? Pics? I'm not sure I want to risk my new stock taco just yet... but I do have my '97 stock T4R limited...?

 

Man I remember last time I went up there with the group. The best part was the HIGH SPEED return down the hill.

 

Well um, neither is ideal. Just thinking of your rocker panels....

But Brian was telling me about a wider trail up
