Rausch Creek Taco Meet... 9th & 10th

It got hot enough in the glove box to melt the plastic screen cover on my multi-meter. And to add insult to injury since my phone mounts in front of the vents it was overheating so I couldn't use it for music.

 

man that sucks...
whats the deal with that........
have you flushed out / cleaned your rad. after the beech creek dust fuck trip????

or you think this is related to the loosing a lil coolant thing u had going on?

 

I'm gonna try and clean off the radiator, see how much gunk comes off. I think the coolant was low because it's overheating and bubbling over.

 

water pump? or thermostat

 

Just replaced 13k miles ago when I did the timing belt. Maybe I got a bum thermostat though.
I gotta think back and take note of the dates of trips I first noticed the overheating because I'm not sure if that was before or after I did the timing belt change. It's also gotten progressively worse which leads me to believe it's not one of those since I would think they should either work or not work.

 

yea flush that rad. clean probulary packed with mud / dirt

and dam that hadda suck.....driving with the heat on.......it sucked with the ac cranking......

Good stuff Kyle. It was nice hanging out with you yesterday.

 

you too john thanks for the tug up the hill.

 

Ha! Anytime!

 

Thanks for the pictures Kyle & the air on the trail!

ha...That pre-runner did awesome on the greens, even though some might have been blues in disguise

I'll be putting some videos & pics up soon.

 

Here are some of the pics I have.

 

Long ride home last night...My drive shaft took a beating! Probably when I followed down Trail 13, despite my own statements I would not go on that trail! Drive shaft is out, driving a front wheel drive Tacoma for now.....It was "candycaned..." as Scott described..took a hit and corkscrewed off! I'll get a pic up her later in the week...

Where would you go for new "propeller shaft"? Junk Yard? Discount on-line vendor? I'll take recommendations!

I still had a great time!....Have to make some extra money for skids now.....

Hope everyone made it home safely!

 

finally home.

thanks everyone for a fun weekend!
I didn't take any pictures, but I have a bunck of gopro videos that i'll have to merge or something and then upload. the raw footage is pretty long.
