Welcome

[Diff Whack Daddy]

Thanks for the new forum Rick. I had no idea it would be set up that fast. Anyway, I am in the Mount Vernon area, very close tho the Walker Valley ORV area. Hopefully there will be more people available to play with now that we will all know where each other is at.

Walker valley looks like about a 2-3 hour drive for me, which is do able unless I damage something there.

With enough notice, we'd love to make a trip to WA. I know Derrick is ready to go anytime.

 

[Derrick C.]

Well Kent is right. I can jump on anything depending on work of course.

Hopefully we can get together some time soon.

And a BIG thumbs up to Rick for gettin this started for all of us.

That's great. I've only been at this base for 1.5 years so the chances of knowing anybody is nill, however, if he ever sees my Exploder tell him to say hi.

Hey! I just found this forum! Niice!! I'm up for a trip anytime if I don't have class or work to interfere. My X is stock though I'm way up in Bellingham, but I'm down near Seattle quite a bit too.

 

[NOTAJP]

Welcome Gina. I remember the days of wheeling a stock Exploder. Yeah, I was on the end of a tow strap more then my own power; but it was fun! I'd wheel with a stocker anyday. That way you could see what a real Exploder should look like.

hey i finally found somebody that lives in washington. I live up in arlington. When ever you guys go shoot me an e-mail. I'm not from around here. I just got stationed down in everett. I'm in the navy. Never been trail riding yet. It would be my first. Never been to walker valley. Here alot of things about it though. Hope to here from someone.

Bigmac- welcome to the site, Maybe some of us get get something going in the next month or so, my explorer is going to be down for about 2-3 more weeks depending on the weather, due to tranny replacement.I do not know where you came from but it happens to rain a little in Washington so you should extend your breather lines on your axles,transfer case,and transmission.

Am I too far North for this NORWEST Club???? Does it count that I am orignally from Oregon???


Maybe it should be called the PNW-Explorers or to confuse some the North-Coast-Explorers hmm maybe even PACWEST-Explorers

 

[NOTAJP]

Augh Kurt, you can count. Any native Duck is good for me.
Besides, if we let you in we can be in good standing with EEO for members being handi-caped.

Would be a blast to wheel with you someday.

Welcome Bigmac!
Anyone want to plan something for mid february? Walker Valley, Tahuya...? I think(crossing my fingers) my ex will be done in a week or two(front diff, 5.5" superlift). I want to go exploring!

 

[bmotoX]

i'm up for a run any time;however,next weekend my X is hopefully getting the straight axe. So this weekend I hope to give my ttb a good fairwell beating. specialy because skyjacker sent me a new 6" drop bracket that looks beefy. compared to the 3 old ones i've broken.

 

[jrgaylor]

Mid febuary looks good I should have my tranny fixed by then ( it sucked coming back from tahuya with only first and second).
Brian- good luck with SAS.
Joe

 

[Siekyre]

SWEEEEETTTT NW!!!!! When we going?? =) Now I have incentive to get those tow hooks on and gears in LOL. (no one around me to wheel with LOL)

 

[Diff Whack Daddy]

Welcome BigMac, I am about 20 miles North of you in Mount Vernon. I just moved up here from Arlington. I was stationed at Everett, but now I'm at Whidbey Island.

I will be gone from the Feb 8th to the 21st si mid Feb is bad for me. You know how the Navy and their schedule is.

 

[jrgaylor]

The ball is starting to roll
Joe

 

[BigMac]

That sounds great. Anytime in feb. is good for me. I need to know atleast a week in advance just incase something comes up. Navy is always doing something.
