Tahuya - January 27th

Yes! These are amazing!

That is some great filming too! Nice camera work. Makes me want to work on my truck some more and get back out!

I have to admit I hit two trees, once just my mirror and the other I dented my VW diesel cap

What work do you need to perform to get back out?

What work do you need to perform to get back out?

Well nothing that's dire important except my motor mount, so no nothing broke. But that motor mount did keep me out of 4wheel drive except that mud pit. But there are always things to do! I also saw yesterday my wheels are barely rubbing the inside of my fender wells, so time for some bigger spacers!

Still looking for something that will lift my tires as well guys, or at least make me remove my sway bar
I also need to figure out my my rear brakes work at 0%
JJ you should come next time and hop in someones rig with em!

ToyotaTim I think I saw you guys taking some pictures?
Thanks again everyone for taking such awesome pictures, this was the best trip for pictures I would have to say and it really makes for some good memories.

Yea, there is always something to do; get that motor mount fixed . I'll try to make a trip if it's not to extreme or paint scratching overgrowth. It's been real hectic time wise though. I'll definitely bring my boy, he'll have something to yell and point at when he looks at the lifted trucks!

Yup got some pics. I will post them as soon as the boy down loads them. I had a great time, even though it took me 2 days to recover. No damage at all and the old cruiser did better than I expected. Now I am being pressured to wash wax (maybe it will happen this spring). Kyle I love watching your 60 in action. Thanks all for the great time.

Hahaha, Tim you and your wife crack me up. So I got some bad news lol, Julia's doc says absolutely no more wheeling until the baby is born! Crazy, but towards the end we had to take it easy because she was having contractions but she knew to realax and everything would be ok. We find out tomorrow if its a boy or girl. I can't wait!

I know I am a few months late but dang. I'm new to the forums and didn't even know there was a area specific section. (Never really payed attention to these things.) Is there going to be another trip soon? I just finished rebuilding my 80 a few weeks ago and want to try it out stock before I go and get bit by the modding bug haha.

Tahuya is a great place to get a feel for a stock rig. We took mine there the second day after I bought it back in '09. It had these weak smittybuilt tube steps on the side that dragged on everything lol.

My trucks abilities have progressed considerably since then, but Tahuya is still a fun day with the family.
