I'm gonna be out of town that weekend. So i cant do anything tell the 12th. Evens creek I believe is still closed. Also your gonna need a forest pass. I thought when I first went my discover pass would work but the ranger said no. But it is a nice drive out there tho.

 

I'm busy the 29th with a fire fighter banquet. Where is evens creek at anyway?

 

Okay let's plan on the 12th then. When does Evans open?

 

Interested in being involved. West Seattle.

 

Awesome man and thanks for the offer to help with my sliders. I think I actually found a local guy to fab and weld me some for cheaper than it would be to order the ones online and have them shipped. Looking further into it though. I will be doing hysteer here shortly though and will need help with welding on the IFS box to my frame. So maybe we could have a work day soon! What are you running for a rig bro?

 

I don't know why my signature isn't working on this thread. I have an 87' 4runner with an 84' SAS with marlin hysteer, marlin dual ultimate t-cases with my own custom triple stick shifter, custom front and rear plate bumpers with a warn 8000 in the front, OME 2" HD springs/bilstein 10" shocks. The motor is a 1994 1KZ-te 3.0 turbo diesel out of a Japaneese surf.

Holy ˟˟˟˟ man that is too sick. Especially that sleeping platform. That is my dream to have something similar in my runner but I just don't have the means to make myself one yet. What a sweet rig. We would love to have you in the club. I'd love to see pictures of your custom bumpers too. Who are you flying for btw?

 

I am taking my instrument instructor check ride next week, then hopefully I will be working for the school I have been training through (Classic Helicopters). They are on Boeing field. Seattle helicopter pilots are mourning the loss of one of our community. Our prayers go out to the families of Pilot Gary Pfizner and photographer Bill Strothman.

 

Yeah that was a tragedy. He was a long time Boeing employee as well and union member so we have been mourning him here at my work as well. Have they found the cause of the crash yet?

 

Even open end of April or beginning of may depending on wearher. I'm down for the 12 just let me know where u guys wanna meet up

 

Alright cool well since Evans is off the table I'd like to hit up more of Walker. I think I'm going to plan a route starting at EZ Connector that will run us all the way round the park. I'd like to make it a longer trip than last time. Might have to leave the girls at home this time or something.

 

Sounds good. Wish I could leave my girl she ready to go again. Ill see what I can do about leaving her

 

Here is shot of my rear bumper. 3/16 square tube.



Here is the front. It is 1/4" plate. I'm am still adding to it.

 

I may be up for the 12th.

Hey Helipilot77! Haven't seen your Runner since a bunch of us went out to Reiter for the test runs before you did the lift and everything, lookin' good man! How's the 1KZ been treating you?

 

I enjoyed having our girls with us last time they just need to know going into the 12th that it is going to be an all day trip and be cool with it.

Very nice!

 

Yeah I mashed my 4runner at the rubicon so I have some body and paint work to do. It did pretty good on the CON, but I definately need some rock sliders. I have started to build some. Hope to go wheelin with you guys soon.

 

Are you going to make it out on the 12th?

 

Sounds good! Looks like we'll be going to walker valley then?

 

Yeah the original plan was Evans Creek but David let me in on them being closed for another month or so. I also want to hit up Tahuya soon as well.
