PNWCRV Washington CRV meet. OFF-ROAD at capitol state forest. 

Yes they are!

Hello from the states! Crv passion is global. Great cars.

Thank you!

Thanks for coming out! Ill let everyone know when the next one is out together.

Doing what we do best! Thanks for watching.

Thank you! It’s a lot more fun as a group.

CRV gang gang!

More to come! It was nice to meet you and check out your CRV

Thank you!

Thanks for checking my video out, I am a big fan of your channel! I started up these meets because there was no established group. So far we have had a few great meets. I think if you put out an announcement you would get guys showing up.

Thanks bro. lets fly you in for the next one, you can drive my blue crv

We had a great time :)

See you at the next one?

See you on the trail! I’ll be posting the invite for the next one soon.

We had a blast!

Tell me about it wish I wasn’t so far

We had a great time.. Come out to the next one!

Very cool!

I have a 99 RD1 with 215/75/r15 General Grabbers. They are ok. Lost a lot of mpg. Thinking of dropping it to Geolanders 205/70. Redoing the lift. Going with truhart lift coilovers instead of hrg spacers. Good luck on your build. God bless

Watch out for the next announcement

Me too!

Great time.

I dig any group of the same car getting together. I have an old Toyota pickup that I have a video of if you are interested.

Come out next time!

@LoganJohnsonWA oh I will! I got stuck with mandatory OT. Next time we'll have everyone pukka out their tables and have a potluck or something lol

Get it fixed and back on the trails!! I just did a head gasket on a crv. Hardest part was scraping the intake gasket off. Make sure you do your valve seals and can seals while it’s out.

The Crv community is strong on here.

Yeah they are. Needs a little more power

I don't recall the skid plate hitting anything on this run however it has been smacked pretty good before. Ground clearance was only an issue on the second gen crv that would hit the fuel tank guard. Those repairs were a long time coming, I did put a lot of wear on the vehicle doing the WABDR (exhaust, tires and knocking the wheel off center.) Right now I have it all fixed up other than a leaking steering rack and I'm coming up on time to replace my clutch again. (I got a couple years out of it off roading and towing things that are way too heavy. I think that the crv is a great light duty off road vehicle. Surprisingly robust for its size and intended usage. in stock form a crv should handle any forest road without breaking assuming its in good condition. I hope that answers your questions well enough, thanks for reaching out.

Cool, thanks! I guess I've been nervous about what qualifies as "light duty", and didn't want to find out the hard way. I was shocked to look underneath and find flat pieces and thin stamped pieces 😱. I've seen "heavy duty" high-clearance control arms, but surprised by lack of tune or I-beam style strengthening. Would you strengthen the CR-V much, or just use your truck for rougher stuff? And any thoughts about doing a viscous coupler and locking the clutches and/or diff?

I’m not too worried about breaking stuff as I have plenty of cars and the abilities to fix what I break. I have thought about changing up the rear suspension design a little

Yes about half were autos. Everyone had awd

Thanks dude! I shot most of this on a Sony Zv-e10 with the kit lenses. I have a lot of learning to do with filming on it.

No, he's just trying to slide down the hill. It was far steeper than it looks in the video.

Sounds like a good car to keep going. Don’t forget the lower ball joints and timing belt needs service routinely.

I recently posted a video explaining the next one.

I’ll post a video soon going over my set up. Hope that will help clear things up.

Hello! The black one is mine, the tires are 235/75. Most of the guys had spacer lifts. Mine is coilover lift.

@@LoganJohnsonWA Thanks! Your car looks very harmonious!

It was a great time!

As far as I know we all had factory rear units. I have been wanting to upgrade to a pinned set up with a coupler on the driveshaft. Time will tell as I’m working on a new crv project at the moment.

I posted an invite on my RU-vid channel and on my instagram. Once you go to one of the events you get put on an internal message board that has planning details and less formal chit chat. As of right now there is no official next event planned for this year yet.

Hi in this group everyone had all wheel drive. I think you would make it to most of the same places as we did.

Idk if I’d say this wasn’t off-roading. That car was driving down the main line which is not what we were coming down. You should come out next time and see what we were really up to. Thanks for watching

Ok I admit I came on strong with that one, sorry don’t mean to sound like an asshole, I’m sure the video makes it look easier than it is and you guys look like a fun group to hangout with, and honestly I would but I live in BC, but I am planning on the king out to Washington at some point. Good luck with your rigs, it’s always nice to see people wheeling their CRVs such an underrated car.

@@kindolive9528I have a 98 crv and a property and last year with the rain and floods had to drag my old mates 4wd ute out as it was bogged in the paddock 8 times at least. Only time I got stuck was when I was dragging his 4wd ute and stock crate bogged to the axles. Had to get the crv dragged out with a red fergy tractor then had it stuck up on a stump had to get it dragged off with the tractor. Tonka tuff. Love my tonka crv.

Lol whatever nerd

Thank you!

They are on there pretty tight.
