I have been contacted by the Forest Service to help with the restoration of the area damaged by vandals early this spring.
They have completed the part that required heavy equipment and are looking for our help to reseed and plant the area in EARLY OCTOBER.
I do not have set dates yet, but they asked me to find out how many folks wanted to help.
They will arrange with the newspaper to come and do photos and interviews with us and anyone who helps.

So, who is willing to help and what dates would work best. They are looking for about 8-10 people.

Gen Right 5pc black hood louver set

Here is a couple pics:




I have thought about this little mod for about 4 years now.  I never got around to it for two reasons: 1. I dreaded all the measuring involved cause I get lazy   & 2. I couldn't decide on what style of louvers I wanted.  These, or the panel style that basically covers the whole center section of the hood or the "bubble" as some call it.  I finally decided that I really wanted to do this, so I started going back over some information I had collected.  Most of those that I can draw experience from have used the Gen-Right style louvers and have had great success.  I really couldn't find many peopl...

Poison Spyder HD Header Bar Kit

Well I installed a set of these over the weekend.  So I guess I will be the first to pass along any tips or tricks.

First, I cannot tell you how well these are made.  Yes I know it is a simple part, not brain surgery.  But the brackets are cut out PERFECTLY.  Fit and finish is top notch!  These were a B-Day present, but my girlfriend said that they came very quickly once she ordered them.  They do come in bare steel.  So you will need to clean them first before painting.  I used xylene and a red scotch brite pad.  Then dried with a towel.  For paint I used just plain old satin black rattle can.

Important note:  If you look at this PSC product pic, you will see that the portion that is mounted to the main hoop slips inside of the DOM tube that connects to the windshield.  DO NOT paint the inside of the tube or the portion that slips inside.  I...

Any interest in a Sept. VF run? 

Hey guy's it's been a long time. I will be in portland the weekend of October 2nd and I haven't been wheeling sence January. I was hopeing that we could put to gether a run then? If anyone is up to it lets plan something. well hope to here back from enveryone.

Ok, the immediate need is for a fuse panel diagram for my jeep. The problem is the headlights won't work. They did, not they don't. It is not seeming to be an intermittent problem, just flat dont work. Running lights work, just not headlights.

Also, need a manual for the jeep in general.

any direction would be appreciated

For now, I will continue to look on line but it is time consuming and frustrating sorting through all the ad's and bs

thanks

As a few of you already know yesterday at around 5 P.M. Levi (our youngest member) got into a very dangerous automobile accident in Hermiston on Hwy 395. He ended up hitting a large potato trailer being pulled by a semi truck. He is fine and the luckiest person ever as he walked away without hardly a scratch, his Jeep Cherokee on the other hand is totaled. He is already working on a plan to get another Cherokee to transplant his motor and tranny into and should be rolling again soon. He is very fortunate and grateful to be okay.

Here are the pics I have of his Jeep after the accident when it arrived home, tomarrow when Levi gets home from work we will also post the ones of the accident which will TRULY show how fortunate he is.

spent the last week camping split between randal and ilwaco. great weather both locations and we all had a swel time!

fireman and his little family joined us for the ilwaco leg of the trip where we stayed at cape dissapointment for three days. every morning was clear and sunshine all day. lots of wind though.

we went to cannon beach, fort columbia and long beach. on my way home i decided to go through astoria and let the kids climb the astoria column.

Ever been on the trail and had your foot slip off the brake or the clutch pedal?  Ever thought about where you were when that happened to you and that if it happened at another location it would be scary as heck?

That has happened to me with both the brake and clutch.  Luckily I have never been in a bad spot.  I know Washington and Oregon are seasonally wet, so I would assume some one has had this happen just as I have down here in Kentucky.  Your shoes get wet, muddy, or covered in snow and if your like me you are in and out of the jeep on the trail and you pay no attention to your feet much less how much traction you have on any of the pedals below.

Well I have found a product given to me for my birthday that is pretty neat and offers better traction than the plain old hard plastic gas pedal and the rubber pads that are on the clutch & brake.  They are the Drake Billet Aluminum Pedal Cover Pads found at [url=http://www.quadratec.co...

I have a bunch of copies of tri power with the article from when we showed randy and mona around virtue. Ill drop some off with colton friday so you can get them from me or him.
