Oregon and Washington BS thread

that would be cool. Thanks man! I'm trying to piece things together before I start the install.

 

Well i know for sure where the 9' cable and 18' cable are. Also found a "flip down" piece that i bought and didnt like (its nice just didnt like it in my application) and found the 90 degree adapter.
The SWR meter is in my toolchest

Thats all i could find right now. Im in the process of reorganizing my garage so who knows if ill find the stud

 

I'm officially faster than a wild bunny now.

 

Question for you all.

Just got my truck back from the shop that was installing my OME fronts (broke two bolts trying myself so took it in) on my 04 Tacoma. I thought it was a reputable shop, great reviews and recommended by the local parts shop. Noticed after I drop it to get aligned today that they installed the coil seats upside down. WTF! As this is my first time installing anything other than OEM parts, is this a huge deal, is there any repercussions to driving with them installed upside down? I ask because I have a flight to catch tomorrow and need the truck to get to the airport.

Thanks all for the advice!

 

What are you going to name it?

 

Pics? Maybe they are installed the correct way. Either way, it will be ok just don't be curb jumping.

Not mine, but its dark and that is what it looks like. The coil basket is facing upside down and is sitting essentially an 1" lower than it should.

 

I vote for "George"!

Wow that brings back memories

 

Mary's Peak is just taunting me on a Friday.

 

It better get some good snow up there this year.

 

I've never actually been up there but I want to go. Is it just logging roads?

 

Maybe, but probably more like last winter.

 

That is exactly what I don't want to hear

 

Roger. I'll let the shaman know. We will throw the chicken bones again.

 

Did this this morning! Really cool to watch 30 balloons launch! (I know there are only 23 in the pic)

 

Hello fellow Washingtonians

 

I just realized that Softoppers don't have a provision for mounting a high mount stop lamp and AFAIK having one is a 50 state requirement. Checked the Washington RCW and as expected I didn't find an obvious exception for canvas retractable canopies. Can anyone confirm if there is some exception because, unlike a fiberglass top, the soft ones are "semi-permanent" because they can be lowered? I haven't been hassled in the three or four months I've owned it.

 

My truck is pissing me off... I'm getting a loud snap/crack sound outta the rear. It only comes up on suspension flex or a hard start and stop on uneven surface. I can't repeat it on the deck with just moving the truck around with my arms under it. It's pissing me off. It's loud. The Old lady has even brought it up now. I laid under it and check the U joint. The leaf bushings. The tightness of U bolts etc. Everything is perfect. WTF. Guess its totalled at 77,000 miles... Changed the diff fluid (clean) and checked for broken leafs....
