Dean K. Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Oops, I forgot the Snow Run was this weekend. Well, I can't make the Snow Run, but I'm good for a Saturday if anyone else is interested and available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 I actually may be able to go for a couple hours, as I don't have to head to the airport until early evening. Anyone else going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedram Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Did you guys go out this weekend? Any chance of going again this month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Did you guys go out this weekend? Any chance of going again this month? I did not make it out there on Saturday. I would definitely be interested in heading there sometime this month. I just got my Rigid Dually lights, so I have been chatting with Barron about the installation. I know that he also expressed interest in going off roading soon. When were you thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedram Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Well David if you need a hand with the install I can help. I have almost anything you need to install those bad boys. Over a weekend would be preferred. Also I'm off Thursday and Friday. Work has been slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over a weekend would be preferred. Also I'm off Thursday and Friday. Work has been slow. That would be awesome! Maybe Barron can join us as well...... I know I spoke to Tom previously about helping too. I have 4 for the front (mounted on tabs on my roof rack) and 2 for the back (same, on the roof rack). I just need to figure out where to put the wires, etc. I have everything, just need to brain storm because I refuse to drill into the headliner. Weekends are also good for me, let me just see when I am in town over the next couple months and get back to you................ Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRover Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I might be able to do the 16th. I'm out unfortunately; too much work is getting in the way of play-time. Hopefully I'm in for the next MORG. Jared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I am not sure about Sunday, but I may have some time on Saturday if any light install experts want to take a look at my lights! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedram Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 If you give me a place to meet up with you I can swing it Saturday for a few hours. Antonio bought a new ride and is putting me to work on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedram Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Oh and another thing. Still planning to go to Hollister with my friend on the 16th. I'm bringing the trailer down to test it out on some trails. I'll bring my grill and some camping gear. The wife wants to join but only if there are other women attending. I want a count of people going to I know what to expect. Who is ready got some fun? Not planning to do any crazy trails. Just take the road we don't normally go on.

Antonio bought a new ride and is putting me to work on it. Hey Pedram, So sorry for the delay - it's been a crazy day. I may be able to go to you tomorrow (Saturday) so you could take a look a look and evaluate the job. I need to get back to San Carlos by mid-afternoon to take my girls to the airport so they can head to Utah. I am actually thinking I would possibly use conduit tubing and just run it down the side of the windshield for now. I definitely don't want to drill, remove weather stripping, but would consider feeding through the A pillar - though I have heard it's very tight and sometimes makes it so it's tough to snap back on. Even though it would not be extremely clean, I like the idea of conduit tubing. If you are busy with Antonio's rig, no problem, we can plan another time for sure. -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to go as well, but won't know for sure until tomorrow. No wife for me, she is heading to Utah tomorrow. Plus, she wouldn't go any way. -David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize I had to do a few things before their flight and it's a bit earlier than I thought. If I remember you are in the north bay or easy bay, so I don't want to risk being late. Let's chat for another date. Will let you know for sure about Hollister tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's chat for another date. Will let you know for sure about Hollister tomorrow. I'm not in a rush, so don't worry. I have tons of things going on here as well so I totally understand. If you would like to reach me directly at my cell (510)673-0625 call or text me. I'm available during the day to chat. I don't want you to think I have no time for your either. I want to help when I can. We can go over the options you have when you have time. Sorry I didn't reply earlier today. I had a date with the wife today since it was Valentines day and also our 2nd year anniversary. We agreed to get married on this date to simplify things. Little cliche but it's fine. So it was a dinner a movie date. Just got home and catching up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedram Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 So I got two trucks tomorrow at Hollister. We are leaving Fremont at 9 am. Giving us about an hour drive down to Hollister so we would arrive there at 10. Maybe a little later. I will be on ham and CB. So my ears are open for NCLR noise. Look out for a white D1 and 1996 champaign grey 4 runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, I posted that I was not able to go but it doesn't appear to have gone through. So sorry I had to miss it, but couldn't get down there yesterday.

Guest Pedram Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Well it's okay. You did miss a little action. I finally broke my disco. This is at the Safeway parking lot. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0004_zpsepe6xfj3.jpg Then to the gate to air down. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0005_zps93ejncnn.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0006_zpsn3s6gtic.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0007_zps0eq7ztll.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0008_zpsuhzlupsi.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0009_zpsajn05pr5.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0011_zpswbn5hsfu.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0012_zps3yvcc4xk.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0013_zpszdg1jpyt.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0014_zpsty8pecwu.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0015_zps7c4rpy6v.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0018_zpsa4crt47z.jpg The t-case went out on my first obstacle. I took it up with the trailer and it did great. I got all the way through but half way up I heard some scary metal crunching sounds and took it easy the rest of the way. Pulled aside and let my buddy with his Toyota take over the trails and watched him snap his front CV joint over a rock last minute. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0020_zps9y42zvbe.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0024_zpsww4awxbt.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0023_zpssgkkrtxu.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0025_zps3o5iyv6w.jpg We both parked off to the side of the stair steps at the old obstacle course and watched my friend Todd replace his CV. Lucky him that's all it was and he had a spare. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0026_zpsemw6g7qd.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0027_zpsa7qic9bb.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0028_zps4qwnclda.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0030_zpsb5q9ff2s.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0031_zps066syexa.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0035_zps7dizqdno.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0038_zps5srxdmjp.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0039_zpsssysyc2v.jpg After about an hour and some jokes we headed back to so easier trails and took pictures. Well that's another story but I was the only one taking them. I was pushing my broken truck around the second obstacle course with the trailer still attached. Avoided the harder stuff and kept rolling. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0040_zpsllfkuuv1.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0042_zps59jacrbp.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0043_zpsle8hlkqp.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0044_zpsa8l0azss.jpg After that we headed to the ravine that NCLR calls Jarells curve, near truck hill. Todd took the ravine and I recorded. Of course mine was parked off to the side. Then off to the rock quarry for a late lunch and pulled out the grill and some hot dogs. Best part of the day. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0045_zpsu8fh8hu7.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0047_zpsg2v6figj.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0048_zps6u208mfm.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0049_zpsjvfjj8uk.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0050_zpsf9uw60hf.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0052_zpssp5it8x7.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0053_zpstq1ylmu6.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0054_zpsgaleqerj.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMAG0055_zps6pgapdhq.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMG_20140216_163005_zps9dhbostm.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMG_20140216_163012_zpszwy3ozjn.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMG_20140216_163021_zps6k8ixtsv.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMG_20140216_163033_zps7qbl7ssh.jpghttp://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a618/PBastan/Hollister%20hills%20SVRA/IMG_20140216_163625_zpst4kucgmh.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidW Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Wow, that was quite a day at Hollister! Despite the mechanical issues, looks like a great time. Awesome photos. I need to head out there soon, as it's nice the dust is down and there are some great puddles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
