Oahu Members Thread

I personally have not been there yet but would like to go

Peacock Flatts is DOD Property, don't trespass just get a permit to go.
Info: http://hawaiitrails.ehawaii.gov/trail.php?TrailID=OA+01+010 also http://www.hawaiitrails.org/trail.php?TrailID=OA+01+005&island=Oahu
Permit: http://www.state.hi.us/dlnr/dofaw/pubs/Application_to_Hike_Kuaokala_Schofield Waikane.pdf The 10 day processing is if you mail it and want them to mail it back. Just goto the Federal Bldg at Punchbowl/HWY 92 and they will give it to you right there.
They say that 4wd is required but I have heard of many people going with out it. Also have seen people with no lift and bald hwy tires on youtube.
As for it being overgrown this video does not show as such from a few weeks ago

Not trying to start a fight or anything but Legal Access is better than Illegal Access getting the Legal access shut down.

 

I'm down when I come back hehe

 

Lol, if it has an engine, I probably had one at one time

 

Dropped off the truck last night for them to work on it today waited till 1300 today and called the service adviser for status. He said he will go check and call me back. you figure a few minutes. Hour passed called again got the voice message left a message waited another half hour finally called the main service number and the lady said that he was on the phone and that she will have him call me back. Finally called back and said we have to locate the parts there is no part numbers for the Supercharger. Took them all day to figure out there is no part numbers. Since I purchased the supercharger for TRD4parts and had Servco installed it. Now they are saying it is not under warranty. WTH Servco. Took the truck home today until they can figure out what parts to order. Servco Mapunapuna terrible customer service Grade "Z". So if you service your truck there don't ask for Bill ask for some one else.

 

Im down!!! that looks like fun.... Oh and does anyone have a welder??? i have decided that enough is enough with the rubbing due to my 35's... im gunna chop some frame.

Also an update- total failure on mod day today. It has now been moved to TOMORROW... Supposed to meet with matt and do the Satoshi mod tomorrow morning. Ill also be doing my whole suspension.

what happened today??? this is what happened,

story: my roommate got a 10' zodiac boat, and was on the hunt for a trailer.... well he found one.... and cheap..... however...... id say this is over kill- supposed to support a 17' boat hahaha

 

I've had a number of issues with Servco mainly with service, i've since stopped going to them and do everything myself.

I bet it's something you could DIY if you're feeling up to it.

 

i will have 2 spares.... if u want em u can have em tomorrow after i put in my add-a-leafs.

Oh and i think i saw u today down pass by at the intersection by the chillis on the way to barbers point... dont know that side of the island so sorry if thats vague. it was around 5:00ish

 

Took about 5 hours to do his black housing mod but buncha beer in between. Gotta say, thanks for trusting a non sober person on your million dollar headlights Here are some action pics and before and after.

 

Understood.....There's tons of trails up there. Some where a family sedan could drive. There's a big camp ground too so, that's what a bunch of people go up their for. The ruts in the video look deep and the branch that ripped off the go pro would get ginsued by a Husky chain saw lol. Looks like a day long cruz and adventure. I'm game . I'll definitely be choosing the best line.

 

Yeps but I don't wanna damage it cause I figure someone out there will buy it from me when I get my aftermarket wheels. Lol

 

Garenteed another mod day tomorrow morning probably by 10 am. Matt (lemon177) will be helpin me with the Satoshi Grill mod, Going to Crank coilovers, install Camburg UCA's and install extra Add-a-leaf... and beer.......................

 

just put in this diehard platinum , it barely fit lol

 

Sorry I couldn't make it today. Had a friend that stopped by my house today for some help with some stuff.

I'll try and make it out tomorrow!

Oh yeah guys, Jurassic Park in 3D on the IMAX was killer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Sounds good to me

 

I didn't realize that was your truck at first Chris! Looks great!

Works for me too

 

sounds fun!! i wish i had 4x4

 

nah no worries Nate, ended up getting side tracked anyway. Check out the page before this one, i ended up having to haul a trailer for my roommate.

 

Thank you Ratha!!!! I could not have done it with out you. Britt and I had a blast hanging out with you and your family.

Thanks every one for all of the compliments!

 

Britt and I are down to go! Might want to let it dry out a bit if its muddy up there. Camping sounds fun as well.

 

For future reference a lot of companies if you call/email them they are willing to ship smaller stuff via flat rate box or regular envelopes. They just don't offer it on websites, because it doesn't allow for tracking numbers normally.

Yeah I'm down I start my weekend duty rotation the next weekend.

Again, I haven't been there before but from what I understand A DOD/Military ID is not good enough and a permit has to be obtained.
