Looking good buddy

I was thinking MAF as well… but I’m finding it is harder and harder to find replacement ECUs for these rigs, so aftermarket EFI… I have been doing some research on the subject and the Pro Flow 4 is the only system able to be tuned from an iPhone…

When done, you’re going to have an almost 200k rig… it will be so worth the time you’re putting in. Even if it is between projects… I know the feeling, I didn’t get much done to mine this winter either, and probably won’t get much done this spring… I’m waiting for the money to prefer a Edlebroxk...

Glad to see the FSB is getting a little work done.

Another thing that needs to be considered… How often do YOU jump your own vehicle vs jumping some one else… you need to make sure you can handle jumping an old Stroked Big Block or Diesel… as @OTH Overland stated if any where in your accessory wiring to go overkill it is the jumper wiring. My...

Red’NTacky is all I ever use… just remember to retune the grease points after a deep water crossing…

@Big G is your closest member representative. There have been talks about starting a meetup near you, but nothing concrete at the moment. Check out the northwest regional forums for more news and information regarding the PNW. once again, welcome.

Welcome to OB. Southern Oregon is huge. What town are you in so I can put you in touch with your member representative?

@Foxtato welcome to the Northwest. How much off pavement experience do you guys currently have? I started driving Jeep trails in a Full Sized Jeep Wagon when I was 14. I got my first small 4x4 when I was 18 and it didn’t really open any new trails. I have owned more full sized trucks and SUVs...

My club will be calling CQ on every band (except 160m) as W7GRA. Also the Spout Springs Repeater Association (Tri-Cities Washington), who also has a lot of OB members will be operating as WF7S. I hope to hear you on air. If you hear any of the two stations just mention you are also an...

So here is some information about Echolink enabled repeaters regarding Nets (to include OB) If you have an Echolink enabled repeater in your area, you can access nets by linking that repeater to another repeater using PL tones. The PL tones are the nodes. I have two Echolink repeaters in my...

DM incoming

I personally don’t have the money or time to go to both events… most people I have been talking to are going to the Expo due to the way Ray treated us in years past.

A ford 5.0 takes 650A to start, a modern 2.3l takes 850a to start… these are the numbers with brand new internals and new starters. As components age, the more amps needed to spin the engine fast enough to start.

Having done this exact setup for years on my service rigs, I have never ever used a circuit breaker. The reason for no circuit breaker is two fold… first a starter can draw over 1000 amps when there is a bad battery or ground issue. Secondly in the event of needing to do an emergency weld, the...

I think most of us are holding out for Expo PNW.

Depends on the trip… some times my planning only consists of how to get to a general area with out a clue as of where exactly in that area I want to go. Other times it’s pouring over maps and satellite imagery to determine the best possible route to fallow.

They have a meetup of sorts once a month or there abouts… no set schedule, just whenever Dave and Michelle feel like hosting an event.

@OTH Overland has a monthly meetup near you.

I’m excited for you Brian… this is going to be such a meet trailer, and a huge addition for your family adventures.
