Seattle Area Maintenance and Meet

[Brilliant]

Went out camping last weekend in a friends LC. Central Oregon to swap a rooftop tent.

What do you think of his rig?

What do I think? I love it. Not many rides out there I'd swap my 4Runner for, but a clean LC is one of them. Where does he live? I ask because there's one just like it across the street from where my friend lives in Seattle. He's right by the zoo.

he was looking to do some light wheeling so I pointed him to this thread. I figured most of you guys have nice enough rigs you dont want to smash them up.

I think he was looking to get out this weekend...

I know exit 38 well. One of the largest sport climbing areas in the NW and I climb up there quite a bit. The fire training center is up at end of the road on the south side of I-90.

no its just before tinkham, tinkham is 42 i believe

is there any good wheeling trails or anything the further down you go?

I rolled all the way to the fire center and turned around not really looking for wheeling. It's not too far up and there may be some stuff up there. You could head out the north fork of the snoqualmie river take the exit where the big truck stop is and head south.

I've always wondered what there is for wheeling up around snoqualmie... I havent found much before

I haven't been up there in a while, but I remember some pretty cool trails in the exit 45ish area. Also over on the other side around exit 62.

Anybody wanna go play on tinkham saturday?

 

[PNWRunner]

Ive really slowed down on the Runner since I moved into an apartment, but now that its not so cold Im finding it really hard to leave it alone. I cant go wheeling until I trim my fenders and pinch welds to clear my 35's. Im wanting to do something similar to what Dirtco did to his pinch weld, grind it down and weld a plate to keep things smooth.

Ill bring beer, and buy food, hell ill even pay anyone that can help. Ive got basic tools and moderate knowledge, but no welder/grinder. Help me get wheeling again!

 

[rideexileex]

Ha I just bought material to do that ^. Want to be a guinea pig???
