Oregon and Washington BS thread

Finally got my sliders done! A fellow Oregon TacomaWorld member, Toyota Man, was the builder. He put a lot of work into them and they turned out pretty damn sweet! I have a write up and more pics at the link below, and a couple pics too.

Bad ass video Bobert! That chick in the GTR is a badass lol and fucked up/funny with the photoshoot people. I wonder if that hurt with all the dirt blasting at them. Crazy jumping over the GTR and the girl. I wonder how much of it was real and digitally edit.

And Zach, double .

ShadesofGrey - that's pretty nice. How much did it run you just for the sliders itself?

 

Excited I got a new lift!! Can't wait to put it on

 

Let's go wheel the shot out of those bad boys

 

I'm down! I wonder how great it'll soak up jumps and the whoops out in the dunes..will be great to break these bad boys in!!

 

I do want to go back to sand lake and test my suspension out. Maybe you can do this again

 

HAHAH i remember the great sounds of your flares popping off.

 

Thanks man.

Yeah I just got mine primed up this afternoon, think i'll paint try and them this weekend some time.

Definitely man, hit me up when you got some free time. Once I get these sliders welded up I'm gonna try and get in on these wheeling trips these guys plan every couple of weeks.

 

Truck looks good man! I see you from time to time around Salem!

 

Thanks man. Back at ya, and I think I've seen your truck around too.

 

Don cut me a great price on these prototypes, in turn we agreed that I wouldn't mention the price. He did say to let anyone know they can PM him here (screen name Toyota Man) and he would be happy to talk pricing. Form what he talked they would be pretty competitive. Just don't want to step on his toes, ya know?

 

LOL

 

Awesome. I like it.

 

Understandable! He only does sliders or all sorts of fabbing?

 

Honda accord is not a rally car...

So about a 100 miles from my house I'm driving up a semi paved ish road to a nice hike in the Coast Range. It was Sunday, the weather was so nice and I had a few passengers so I drove my little honda that could... Well 40MPH on a road like this isn't the smartest thing I could of done and I just so happened to meet the pot hole from hell. Heard a loud "ting" when I hit it but thought nothing of it. I get to a parking space a couple miles up and as I crank the wheel the worst grinding sound you could imagine appears out of no where. So I get out and look at my right front to see that the collar on my strut had separated and my strut was being forced into my CV shaft Yes I drove home all 100 miles just like this with a nice friendly grinding and jarring sound/feeling the whole way home!!!


Collar broken pushing the strut into the CV




Just a little bit of material was removed



Don't buy shocks from Mexico...




Moral of the story...

Don't drive stupid shit into the woods

 

Jason what year of Honda? I rally the shit out of my 86 accord and it wont die lol.

 

2001 accord. This fucker won't die either just a little weak at the knees

 

He's doin sliders, but I know he will pry be working on more for his product line.

 

I bet this is what crack is like
