Not all of it but I get around. I'm aware of my limitations, I spent the night on the busy wild once. Guess who doesn't forget his spare tire anymore.

LOL right on brother. Well I'm Andrew I started the club and do all of our event planning. We are a free club without dues. Just a laid back bunch of guys who love getting out and getting our trucks dirty. We will be having a run here before the month is over to close out the summer. We are still deciding where to go. One of the members suggested Tahuya. Have you been there?

I have not, I have family that ride dirt bikes and quads out there. They enjoy it. I'd like to make it to Evans Creek before the summers out. Been along time since I've been out there. My truck was down for about 2 years until a few months ago.

We went to Evans two trips back and the more stock/IFS guys had a hard time with the more difficult trails. It was still a good time and great camping. I would be down to go again. I'll put out some feelers to the guys. Most of them monitor this thread though and will likely chime in....right guys....

Depends on if you count those that haven't come out to an event or not. Do you work a M-F?

The Naches video says unavailable. Walker Valley looks like a lot of fun. Those are some nice 4runners, mine has met it's share of trees.

Yeah, yeah, I'm still lurking around here . I'm more up for a day trip, that's why I suggested Tahuya. I'd be down to do Walker again too now that I have tires that have tread, lol. Probably not quite as muddy as it was last time too. If it's gonna be an over-nighter somewhere else I can try to make that work.

Do you think we should do Evans again or wait until trucks are a little more built? I had a blast personally on the trails we hit. I would totally be down to close the summer down with a Tahuya or Evans trip. Even a walker would be fun. We still haven't done the Top loops. I'm getting some work done to my truck this weekend (brakes). Then I'm getting this put on my truck before the end of the month We should get a beer Brendan. I have to go into Seattle sometime this week for some other ˟˟˟˟ anyways. When are you free?

Well, my vote would be for Tahuya since I haven't been there yet and would rather just do a day trip. Walker would be cool too.

I get off work at 2:00 M-F. Gonna be heading out camping straight from work this Friday though, but hit me up whenever.

Thank you. Yotatech is a great site. I'm lost when it comes to electrical, and am having a hell of a time. I just bought a used tailgate for my 4runner, supposedly good motor for the window. Plugged everything in and nothing happens. Is there supposed to be power going to the window switch in the center console. Using a light tester with the key on I can't find a hot wire. Can get a hot wire off my ignition so in getting g a good ground. It doesn't make any noise when I hit the switch. Any suggestions. I've trolled around a few threads, top bolts are in to engage the switch, plug in the corner is hooked up. Wiper is all the way up but it been mashed up a bit.

I'm ˟˟˟˟ at electrical as well. Maybe a relay problem? I know that is common with these back windows.
