North West BS Thread

wind was gusting about 1-2 hrs ago - was out in the back yard and heard a pop/snap - looked for a tree and saw 1/4 of my fence laying half way back - tossed some 3" anchors and good as new. Got me thinking and glad it happened - I checked around the fence and found another 5 spots where you could see either nails were at the tips or the wood was too split for the nails to hold.

 

On our walk, we had the top half of an alder snapped off across our driveway, and another one farther down our road.

About sums it up lol

 

That bumper and winch will be handy in the future. Hopefully nothing else decides to fall.

 

Got an email from SSO yesterday saying the materials are received. One step closer…

 

Man I'm glad I'm missing the storm but did see I may hit some on the return drive this weekend.

 

Just got an email new method wheel. Definitely a contender in my choices

 

I like those! I wish I had gone with wheels without the fake bead.

 

I've always been a fan of FN's wheels - happy with both sets I've owned - very clean and not over done by any means

 

Yup, FN does a good job. Love mine

 

All those look great

 

Man those look good…

 

Hitting another trail this afternoon. I'll send some pics later. Then installs tomorrow and Friday!

 

Well what a week. Currently sitting out front having a drink and relaxing before this crazy few days of trying to wrap up some projects. House remodel was supposed to be done last week, now looking at another 3 months to fix our cabinets, crazy storm brought down a big ass branch that was threatening some roof damage. At least our tree guys got it taken care of. $300 for 15 minutes of work. Oh well the roof repairs would have been way more.

Anyway who had the 20” tires? I may be leaning towards that route as other priorities are killing my lift and new tires plan.

 

Not sure who had the 20"s, found this on craigslist though https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/wto/d/vancouver-falken-wildpeak-all-terrain/7458288625.html

I have my set sitting in the shed too. As they sit in my shed now on the bottom of the leaning tower of tires (275/65R18)


Last good picture I have of them on my truck.

 

I had my 20” OEM platinum take off wheels and tires but they sold about 2 weeks ago.

 

Ok. Thanks for the update.

I need to get on CL again.

 

Also..this Rogue Dead Guy Whiskey is pretty tasty.

 

Trail run 2 from yesterday. Not a difficult trail overall but very narrow and definitely got some new pinstripes but all good. Got my step brother out to join us which was awesome. Still need to upload some videos. The dust was no joke couldn’t see anything a few times, more lights needed lol.

 

I still have mine - they're X Series Rockstars - came with the XP package for my truck - let me know

 

Sliders going in shortly.

 

Boom! These are legit, stand up people here to. Got a full shop tour etc.

 

Those are really good looking

 

Thanks pics dont them justice but I'll snap some more later once I'm back at the house.

 

are they bolt on or welded?

 

Bolt on but I'll most likely throw some welds on there also

 

Another angle

 

Are your wheels 0 offset? I’m just trying to get a frame of reference of how far they poke out in the back.

 

Yessir 0 offset. I can take measurements if you need. Just let me know. Added a few more pics. I also think they'll be coming out with a no kick out option but not sure on the ETA.

 

Don’t need measurements. They look badass! Trying to decide if I want to spend that much on sliders. They are a ways down the list for me right now.
