[Hepar]

I don't know a damn thing about welding, but I can help with the beers.

What are you wanting to get done? I have a few favorites for different things

dont need anything done, just wanna go check one out, ive never been to one before I just wanna check out what kind of goodies places like that have in person.

 

[Zubesyo]

Anybody wanna go play on tinkham saturday?

I'd be up for going but can only go on Sunday.

 

[rideexileex]

I'm torn... I've got a HUUUGEE laundry list of things I need to get done on the 4runner, and might take the weekend just to get them all done/started. If it snows, I'm definitely going skiing. The weekend after seems more likely to me. I've been wanting to get some snow wheeling in for a long time... need to break in that front locker!

Hmmm, I know of a few hole in the wall places like that, but havent really been to them myself. There's TC's down in kent, Billy Bobs down in Milton, Olympic 4x4 up North, 4 wheel parts in tacoma, etc.... Really depends on if you want a "parts" shop, "repair" shop, or a "fab" shop.

There is also a place up north in the Marysville area called Randy's offroad.

I can't go sunday but we're going Saturday.

For those who are interested I'm meeting edward at the qfc parking lot in north bend at 9:30 Saturday morning, we'll probably be exploring the tinkham area.

Hey anyone out there wanna buy Weathertech mats for a 4th gen? I have two sets see my ad in the classified section or on craigslist. Vendor sent me two sets and my wife ordered the first set for the wrong generation to begin with. Grey front and rear sets and can pick up in Seattle or Bellevue.

How was it up there?

Did you go far enough up to hit deep snow?

 

[K2Runner]

Yeah we did. It was slick, wet snow. We helped a stuck explorer on timkham. We didn't make it very far up tinkham and we made it kinda far up denny creek before we couldnt go further. All in all it was fun

Looks cool, how was the tread on those tires? Looks like the Michelins? I hit the mountains with my BFG All Terrains and it was like night and day to my Michelins.

Edward has Michelins on his rig and I got Nitto Terra Grapplers. The grapplers did okay but the snow was just bad. I got about 40000 miles on em and about half tread left

 

[rideexileex]

Soooo, whats the next destination trip? I want to do something fairly technical

[SilentYoda3]

I'd say somewhere over here by spokane would be cool! haha, that or i'll wait till summer to go up with ya'll since i'm stuck on the east side right now.

 

[PNWRunner]

Ive got thursday and friday off this week. I would like to go out to reiter and see what's opened up, even though my tires will be eaten alive by the body. Anybody wanna go?

 

[rideexileex]

I had some buddies go check out reiter last weekend, and I had to cancel last minute, and they said it wasn't worth the drive. Given that you're close, you'll have to tell us how it goes!

I'm really wanting to get some hard snow wheeling in, and I'm open for ideas on where to go. I would want to get a group with people that are willing to do some snow bashing, and use the lockers.
