Sorry to see all the damage

Thanks, there's been a ton of help so far. and the police and military have put in huge hours to watch over everyones stuff while people havent had access to their places, but I look forward to it being finished and over with.

Removed the front bumper. Torched an adapter plate. Added my dinky little 9000 lb winch and finally finished the 4W319 trail in Liberty, Wa. Turns out I didn't need a winch but it sure felt good knowing it was there.

How are the trails up there? The FS discouraged me from trying it a couple of weeks ago. The said they hadn't cleared the blowdown debris from the winter or rebuilt the bridges burned during the table mountain fire. I decided to go to the little Naches area instead.

Love that area and can't wait to get back up there. I've never run Crystal ridge, is that a fender smasher or can you do it without damage?

The trail didn't officially open until the next day, but we got lucky. We didn't know it until later in the day, but the forest service was clearing the trees ahead of us. We caught up with them toward the top of the trail. As far as difficulty I would say that it depends on the weather. I can make it with my unlocked 80 when the trail is mostly dry but when wet the dirt turns to a clay based mud that acts like grease it can be extremely difficult. I had great success chaining up in the mud a couple of weeks prior to this trip when it was very wet. I did not make it all the way through due to the lack of a winch. The lower elevation has some bushes that will pinstripe and the upper elevation has all the awesome hill climbs. The picture above was my 80 on the largest of the stair steps which is the worst obstacle when the weather is dry. I climbed it with little effort although I did hear my muffler touch which turned out to leave a small dent in the bottom of it.

Awesome, I'll be sure to take a run at it next time I'm up there.

Thanks!

I can understand why, but at least you looked good doing it Cheers!

Of course now that summer has finally arrived my air conditioning stops working. Looks like I will be replacing the condenser. I got it pretty cheap through Amazon though. About $80

Started last weekend and finished up today. Built a swing down for my 4x4 labs rear bumper.

By the looks of it, it was time anyway. Might help with airflow across your radiator now

Any assist for it? If I did this my wife would kill me.

My wife has no business with my 80, or any of my other cars. She has her own. I never learned how to share as a kid.
