NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Still up in the air... I got a date with Traci though gahhhhhhhhh I can't handle my life

 

Take her with you

 

Ahh yuck it would be so glorious sick ew hahaha ahhhhh

 

I'm still thinking leafs up front. Dunno.

 

Ew

 

Setting up a linked front is more work but worth it in the long run

 

Coil overs or nah

 

Oldschool...it works

 

There's haters in every bunch.

 

Can you shove leafs up front on these?

 

A few guys from pirate and ttora have done leafs up front. Problem is keeping it low, and not sky high.

 

I finished installing the Bird Dawg Tech Deck and after it was done I realized I have no power to that little panel that has the hazard light switch, clock, alarm light, and the indicator for passenger airbag. Airbag is stuck in off. LOL fuck. I have to take it all apart again and look for a wire harness not fastened correctly. I think that plug is one of many going into the stereo.

In the end though I'll have a phone mounted dedicated to running Torque app and I'll also have a 8 inch tablet dedicated to GPS apps.

 

I installed mine now all the lighting for my climate controls are intermittent. I said fuck it because I JB welded it on.

What tablet are you using? Do you have a antenna hooked up?

 

Did you get the extreme duty version where you drill holes into the lip of the stereo? lol that was fun, and luckily all the holes lined up in the end.

I have a Galaxy Tab E no antenna for it yet. I'll see how it works first. That tablet was almost free through T-Mobile. You pay $25/month for the equipment but they credit you $25/month so all I paid was tax.

So does the external antenna help with the GPS signal?

 

Yeah I got the extreme duty version. I can believe all mine lined up. I went a little overkill with the JB Weld but I'm sure it won't fly out for any reason. You have an automatic right? My options are fairly limited because I can't run anything down below due to the shifter.

The antenna is plugged into the bottom of a tablet or phone and supposedly help boost the GPS signal. Whether they work or not I'm not sure I don't have any experience with them

Let me know how the tablet works out for you because that's a good deal, already do all my mobile stuff through T-Mobile

 

I just read about GPS antennas that are Blue Tooth connected so you can put antenna on the roof or something.

 

I'm going to order one of those. I'm running my 8in tab 2 s on a ram mount suction cup from the windshield and it takes up visibility

 

that is exactly why I'm installing the Tech Deck and also why I already did his mirror riser. Plus I don't want to run down the battery on my main phone when I'm using GPS for trails. Your ram mount will work minus the suction cup of course. Just need the base with 1" ball.

 

Alright guys so this is the updated list (I believe.. Correct me if I'm wrong). 7pm tomorrow!

 

I would love to go, however I will be in a meeting until 730..
