No. We call it a rust and rubber show. If you had an old CJ or even a YJ there is some stuff there. Nothing really for TJ's or JK's.

Not even garage sale. They basically setup a 4WP store with some vendors in the building. There are some good prices though. ARB, Warn and Rigid are the best stops.

I would say differently, just have to look harder.

Last year at the swap meet, I had my JKU for all of 7 days. I picked up:

Set of 17" JK takeoffs, swapped my stock steelies off in our booth and sold them the next day
Picked up a Pro-Cal from the Northridge booth to calibrate for the tires
factory rear hitch
4-door rubi rails
upgraded stereo
I also picked up some new grab handles from one of the vendor booths.


While a lot of the crap is the same crap that is there every year (and has been for the last ten years), there are deals to be found.

That's right... I forgot Northridge was there too. I remember seeing John from ACRO in the same area. I guess the main area was good. It was the outside tents and booths that were horrible. That's what we walked through last so it left the lasting impression.

Cool! So, just to mark my agenda. There are two events.

March 10 - the "garage sale type thingy" where some vendors show-up and there are good deals to be found. ;-)

April 13/14 - the 4WP event with multiple vendors and some special prices


Northridge also has its own but it's later in the year, correct? Any others?

Yes, the main area is well worth the trip tp Puyallup. The outer areas are pretty much what you say. There are a few folks out there that are there to sell the takeoffs form their last upgrade. We'll be there. It's always a good time.
