NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Huge win! Congrats that’s something to be proud of!

 

Does the last picture indicate that driving straight you have right leaning steering wheel?

 

Just sent in my last truck payment.

 

Welcome to the owners club.

 

Good stuff, Ron!

 

Yeah but that was because I forgot to mark the cam bolts before i removed the LCAs so I needed an alignment. The steering wheel is straight now.

 

Apparently built on a shortened Tahoe frame with a V8

 

This is funny, several customers have sent me messages about this thing!

 

Ok, this is a long shot, but does anyone happen to have a firstech/compustar ads-usb idatalink programming cable? Or the mobile programmer that allows you to use your phone instead of a laptop? I picked up a remote start and didn’t think about how i was gonna program the blade AL and figured I’d ask here before buying a $50 cable that I’ll likely only use once. Pics included of what they look like.

 

real question; why do you guys extend the AC drip tube?

this mod makes me giggle. is it really causing issue?

 

Is this a 3rd gen thing? This is the first I’ve heard of it so must not be a 2nd gen problem?

 

It drops right onto a cross member if I remember correctly. With how prone they are to rust, it's simply a preventative measure

 

Ahhhh, shit my AC doesn’t work and I’m in the new frame club anyways so

 

Long shot but is anyone looking for something to do next week? I was supposed to run the BDR south to north starting Wednesday morning and my buddy can't go, wrecked himself on a dirt bike. I feel like I've been hyping it up too much to bail now so may just run it solo anyways unless someone wants to join for some of it.

 

Maybe ask on the BDR 4x4 Facebook group. It’s all clear now so it’s doable solo

 

Yeah I asked a while back and didn't want to sound like a broken record but I'll give it one more shot. Trail reports all look fine now so should be all good. As someone who's never ran it do you come across many people out there this time of year?

 

Some friends and I are hitting up Naches, July 3 through 7, for some wheeling and camping. There will be a moderately built OR 4runner, a couple locked Broncos, my truck (locked), and I'm not sure who else. Some of us will be meeting in Seattle late afternoon of the 3rd, to convoy down. PM or call me for more details as I get them.

 

Hey folks, I got into a convo with some WA folks on r/ToyotaTacoma and there's a fella organizing a trip out to Fortune Creek this Saturday. Not sure if people are on reddit but thought I would throw it out there. Check out r/pnwtacoma

The guy organizing is u/Buttpropulsion
I guess it's reddit... so will leave it at that

 

meeting guys on reddit is my bag baby! I haven't been up there in a while, I might be in.

 

Now you have @Bertw192 attention
