Oregon and Washington BS thread

I have only used mine on occasion for road trips if I'm afraid of loosing stuff on the freeway.

 

Anyone know of a great offroad shop in the portland area (Hood River Specifically)?

I just installed icon billet delta joint UCAs and I would like a legit shop that knows their shit to align me.

 

I did it a few years ago. If you can do Big Si with a 40lb pack in under 2 hours youre ready. My profile pic is from Muir base camp

 

I have a goal of Olympus in the next 2 years with no pack muel!, did hood when I was a teenager.
@ninernation
Good luck on Rainer. South Sister is a good starting point then middle and Washington Adams ect ect.

You should have some crampon skills and Ice axe self revovery skills. Otherwise you are a Liability plain and simple. No asshole intent.

 

Not hood river, but portland. I've used this guy, theyre familiar with aftermarket UCAs and do the alignment for one of the local shops that install lifts on Toyotas.

Anyone know if 2nd gen and 3rd gen CBI overland bars vary? They have them listed separately online but with the same dimensions...

 

if the holes are slotted they will work on both. I think only their oldest oldest versions were gen specific.

 

Yeah after I did a bit more research I found basically similar info. Thanks, Jerrad.

 

Can I join your social club? (Pretend the cooler is yeti)

 

Not with that zip tie bumper

Jokes, looks good, man!

 

I got tired of you making fun of me so I drove down to Portland and got a fresh one off Craigslist now I’m back to mall crawlin

 

Damn so you did make that trek

 

Made it down to hilsboro and home before noon. Had the new bumper with holes cut for the hidden winch installed by 1:30, and up to greenwater by 2:30

 

Nice! Now those 255/85s

 

Because we've never heard of them? And according to their website, no longer made in WA but IA instead now. Had I known about them, might have bought one of their Kong 25's instead of Yeti Roadie 20.....

And there are plenty of American made rotomolded coolers, Kong is not the only one. Bison, Esky, Orca and Pelican coolers are all USA made. Probably some other, smaller brands out there too.

 

But yeti = overland



It was a joke. Never heard of Kong and didn’t want to afford a yeti

 

Anyone tinker with or have kids that tinker with computers?
Ive got two laptops that are dead and maybe have some parts that are usable.
Dell died in '10, Toshiba was its replacement and died last year.
Both have dead batteries, Toshiba has a power cord.
Whats wrong with them? No clue. Dont remember on the Dell. Screen went batshit on the Toshiba, then all else went stupid.
I gave the hard drives the "associate" treatment and trashed them.

 

I bought one at Walmart, I think it's made by Reese or Hitch Hauler I think. The one at Harbor Freight is thinner and crappy.

Dogs really love them, but I haven't tried stirring more than peanut butter in one

 

Mine. Discount for local forum members.

Last ditch effort for some votes, only 30 min left if anyone in here wants to check out the cook off threads and maybe give me a vote, I'm currently tied for second in one of the categories:
