I can put a swamper on anything (wilsonville Oregon)

swing gates make alot of noise and will eventually rust out the car dont do it unless your going to attach it to the bumper but then it will rattle like crazy take my advice easy to get the tire but hard to take the bumps

My goal is to not just keep it oregon but to at least get everyone on the same page we will need leaders for portions of the region also I am trying to make it northwest friendly as washington has a group I dont want to detour away from thenm either but I do want to make it subie club oriented I dont want to start it on the board because these guys have enough to do then monitor us all day I still want usmb because this is where I grew from and not want to shy away but I think we as a group need to create hands on things and creativity amongs ourselves in one place I have designs and modifications I still havent put up that I need to on usmb that I think other people would grow from but I also want to have what the club northwest washington has and thats friends hanging together going on rides and having a spare car for others to enjoy our sport to trail activities and fixes welding diffs and putting in lsd please I ask everyone to read and consider these things it doesnt just pertain to offroad but rally suspension mods for other subies to If you got ideas join lets make a family. northwest .............

I drove up to tacoma and then drove home I stopped off the road and let my kid pee then took off got up to speed and then the car suddenly started to wobble badly I dont feel it in the steering wheel it feels to be the back of the car. I feel it at all speeds but doesnt get real bad until 55 it feels like a flat spot like a bad tire or flat. the tranny shakes violently could this be a front axle or the drive line on the subie please help thanks

Can t wait Im showing up early then planning the wheelin back down because I like to hangout this year instead of showing on the last day cant wait family is excited to

Ok so I went and bought a new sender then I went and shopped around for a oil pump I drove around for a couple days and then something weird occured smoke blew out my car and I lost a quart of oil on the ground where I parked the oil was all over my gauge and cover and bottom of the oil pan when I did further investigating I noticed that the sending unit had a strong amount of oil on it and had blown the oil out of the rear of it I replaced it with the new one I bought on the side of the road put in more oil and now everything works great weird how that works but its alll working now

Hello everyone I have a problem I had good oil pressure one day and then my gauge only goes to 45 the next if I tap on the pump it goes up to 85 what is going on is my pump bad or is my senssor crazy it goes back to 45 and now when I sit at lights it even reads below zero other then that it doesnt knock nor does it run funny just need input going to pick apart tonight to pull oil pump and sensor. any info would help. Oh yeah and my temp stay pretty normal so no overheating issues at all
