    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    Quick question on our meet up location... Has anyone been out there to know the layout and where we want to setup shop? I have only seen pictures and looked at a sat view. Looks like when you enter the park to the right past the campground there is a large open gravel horse camp/ staging area...

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    I think doing the propane pit will keep it simple so we don't have to bother with wood or deal with the ashes once we're done. I'll try to figure out my meat of choice tomorrow so people can plan any sides they might want to bring to go along with it. Sounds like this should shape up to be a...

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    I have a line on a propane fire pit I can bring if we don't want to bother with wood. My friend I built it for still hasn't paid me so I steal it back any time I need one, it's been a couple years so I don't think he really plans on paying me at this point...

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    I plan to be there. Has the Rally Point updated since the last meetup or is the attendee list form the last one? Is there a head count on who's coming and how many people they are bringing so people can plan for the potluck? I'll be by myself, anyone who thinks they are coming please post if...

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    Sorry, I've been out of town for work and haven't been checking in much. For date I was just rolling with it still being on the 22nd. And for location I think we should do Horn Rapids cg weather permitting. We always have bombing range as a back up if it gets crappy. Does potluck lunch sound...

    2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Build

    I'm not sure if I'm more jealous of the fresh crate motor for the WJ or the SnapOn boxes

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    I'm cool with making Horn Rapids CG plan a, b and c. I haven't been out there but from the pics I've seen it looks like a pretty good spot. Really the only reason I would think we needed to move indoors would be wind and rain, only weather I don't like is rain that goes sideways. I made a run...

    Tires?

    So I finally remembered to ask my coworker how he's liking his tires, and he really likes them. His are 35x12.5x18 on stock wheels, so a little wide for the wheel and he has the centers siped. He said it took a little adjustment of pressure to find the sweet spot but for him 60-65 is where he...

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    Thank you Mike, I too appreciate what you've done with getting things together for the last meet up. For me I see it as we will only get out as much as we put into this so it will take a team effort if we want things to take off and good things to come of this group. I guess I just figured...

    US Northwest Tri-Cities Recurring Monthly Meetup

    I checked out the Horn Rapids cg you suggested and the day use area looks like it wouldn't be a bad place. I was checking around for other places between here and Yakima but haven't seen much yet. I'll keep looking around, but does anyone else have any suggestions? Or a limit to how far they...

    The Tri-Cities Clubhouse

    So I've always had this idea of building a convertible running board/ rock slider if I was ever to have a dd that I was also going to take off road. The idea would be to build a regular slider out of 2"x3" rec tube or whatever fits the vehicle for the protection of the bottom of the rocker. But...

    The Tri-Cities Clubhouse

    Sure, anyone is welcome and we like beer. It's kind of just an open BS session in here, no real topic. We actually had someone from Spokane ( @CurrentlyRockhoundin ) come down for our first meetup in December. We don't have a place in mind for February yet, but if you're free you're more than...

    The Tri-Cities Clubhouse

    Nice and shiny. How big over stock did you go? Cuz if you're doing the work of fixing things and replacing parts you might as well go bigger and badder. Did you figure out what the cause of the problem was? I know they have turbo issues do to soot buildup, I've always tried to limit idle...

    I guess that's the only pic I have. It was for an '04 Chevy.

    The Tri-Cities Clubhouse

    I put one of those kits together for one of my co workers a few years back. Pretty good kit, it took a little trimming to get it to fit the pickup to my liking. The instructions said to tack the frame mounts to the center section, mount it to the truck, then tack each side together on the bench...

    Real OVERLANDER rig import

    I have no experience in importing vehicles, but another thing to think about is where to register it for smog and inspection reasons. Smog and safety inspections can vary greatly by state/county/city. I would think there is an initial inspection when bringing it into the country but after that...
