NW WA Meet / BS Thread

take it the opposite way. I know People have done a “hidden snorkel”

 

Well, the tires I’m planning on going with are on nationwide back order for about 6 months

 

What about that plywood tire you made with a chainsaw

 

worried about the structural integrity, also i dont have enough plywood.good news though..Mule has the tires in stock

 

Before i toss my old tires is anyone interested in them? Might have another 5k in them. Figured I’d ask if someone wants a set to see if they clear

 

Fawk I just got rid of 5 tires and to make more room in the shop

 

Going to get my tires today

 

Anyone been to Reiter Foothills ORV park? I've been through Tahuya and Walker Valley a couple of times, I was thinking about checking out Reiter this weekend. Is it comparable to the other two? I figured I would start with the green trails and work my way up depending on what it looked like.

EDIT: Nvm, just saw it does not open until Memorial Day weekend, guess I'll ahve to wait a month.

 

After waiting for a couple months for the shop to get the parts, I'm finally scheduled for getting a re-gear done mid May. Can't wait to feel how much difference there is between my current stock setup and the 4.56s I'll be running!

 

I'm seeking feedback on this powder coat job, as well as recommendations for a different shop around here I can take them to for sandblast/re-coat since this job is so so terrible.

I would not be ok with that. I've had wheels done before, about $150 and they were perfect. I'd take them back and make them redo it. Talk to the owner and make sure he sees it

 

Nice! I re-geared in February and it made a gigantic difference, like a whole new truck.

 

My blown out back hurts just thinking about loading these back up, again.

Might be willing to give them another shot, but honestly am half scared what condition they'd come back in if I asked them to try again rather than simply getting a refund...

 

At an old job, we used this place a lot. Seemed like good quality. It’s also been 5-6 years since I’ve been there.

I doubt they'd give a refund without a shit at fixing their mistake first.

 

After a couple replies agreed that quality was not up to snuff I emailed them with the photos asking for either a do-over or refund. They got back very quickly and seem eager to resolve the issue, so I will bring them back tomorrow and we will see how it pans out.

Hopefully tomorrow isn't some kind of ambush and they make an earnest attempt to resolve. No matter what the price is apparently very steep, but if the quality ends up alright I'm willing to chalk it up to a lesson learned with regard to shopping around more.

So far I'm hopeful based on our interactions, will definitely post an update!

 

Awesome. Chances are some new guy tried to sneak by some shit work and nobody caught it. Make sure you get it in writing they'll re-sandblast and recoat. Don't want 36 layers of powdercoat

 

That's what I like to hear. Will be a bit overgeared til I get my 32s, but it should be super quick on my 31s til then!

 

Size comparison



there will be more cutting
