Hoe, there is also T&J's Performance in Anaheim. Tom is one of the owners and Max is the shop manager. They know me pretty well and have done a good job with my rig, even when I broke it!

They done a few regears for people on here.

[ginobetterfly]

Thanx Jeff, you down Gene?

I guess it depends on the price... but the more i think about it... i might hold off on the regear, my power loss is not that bad at all, and i need to get more important shat put on first... like some new tires (the ones i got now only have like 1.5k miles left on em)... im also saving money for a down payment on a new car... soooooo... yeah...

[K.Patel]

Looks good.

[Bala de Plata]

very nice!! :thumbs: :dancing: :woot:

[Kamr0n]

damn. just need spindles now.

[AZNPG]

very nice!! :thumbs: :dancing: :woot:

but one question and it really doesnt matter cause obviously its all about how it performs, but stil, just curious why not black coils?



brocks gonna see if the 600 pound springs are good for his truck if they are then hes gonna powdercoat them black.

but i say brock should of kept all the blue stuff as is and then get the shock body in black that would of been a better combo

[AZNPG]

and man it was fucking hot up at brocks place

[AZNPG]

and chaz ur gay for not coming up to brocks place

[brock]

coils will be black asap. spoindle gussets will be fine for me becaus eim not going to be driving over and ford focus'...

[ryguy]

looks great!! Im happy you went to LT. Hey btw, TIGHTEN YOUR ALIGNMENT CAMS 150 FTLB's Or your alignment tabs will go flat!! Now, your gonna be like me, rear sucks compares to front! LOL!!

[Tweeter]

Might want some reservoir tabs from TC :2cents: Looks pretty clean

[menacekustoms]

He's getting the brackets welded on tonight for the resivoirs. It rides nice, since I actually stayed to the end. We obviously didn't test it offroad because of the lack of limit straps and no brackets for the resivoirs. Oh, and we took off my swaybar, and it rides much nicer now.

[menacekustoms]

And ryguy, we torqued everything to proper specs. And, brock is not like you, you're way cooler. :rolleyes:

[SCEXPLORER]

Dang Crazy! I thought you were gonna keep the Dhoe air bump chubby's.

[ginobetterfly]

looks good congrats... i wish i didnt have to work til fuggin 7pm today... i really like the bumper add-ons or whatever they are didnt know they had those...

[yota4lyfe]

It's about damn time! 3 configurations later. Looks quite nice for a home installation.;) Now lets see how she holds up now that Johnny had his hands on it.:eek: I wish I coulda stayed for the free food. It was good to see some of you peeps again!

[brock]

[HoeRunner]

and chaz ur gay for not coming up to brocks place I had to work til 5 and didnt want too sit in traffic in this gas guzzling POS Dodge :mad:

coils will be black asap. spoindle gussets will be fine for me becaus eim not going to be driving over and ford focus'...

[HoeRunner]

Looks good Brock cant wait to see it in person

That about sums up your hole truck right? Baling wire, zip ties and duct tape? Maybe some chewing gum for good measure?

man that hurts viet haha hell i'm just happy that my truck is running right now. oh and tell mike thanks for welding my uniball adapter out at the night race

the cool thing about zip-ties is that you can change the color of them as often as you want, which equals to mega ultra cool points

Went to DMZ to pick up Tim's customfabbed tool (pretty bitchen), it saved Brock another trip to Sears. Got there about 10:30. The left side was alraedy on its way to being done. So i decided to bust out the camera and try to make a write up of the right side. Midway through we got lazy, messed around, ate pizza, then a couple other guys came over to see the progress. So i didnt end up taking pictures of the whole process of installing an LT kit. So no write up. But here are some random shots i took.

Brock, How much clearance does that elbow have between the shock?
Thanks for all the help

I had to clock the 90 elbow coming out of the shock into the resi down to about a 45 degree angle and crank the coilover down so that the elbow wouldnt contact the shock. Maybe at ride height it wont be so close.

[brock]

i just have it resting against the top collar. kind of dumb design imo.

[ryguy]

hey your on and its 4:13am.. lol
Doesnt this limit your travel? Just wondering.. Mine looks different:

[06HAOLE]

I have about 9 threads or 1 1/2 inches of thread showing on the shocks with no contact between the 90 degree elbow and the shock. I might have to lower it down. I know the Foxes and Kings are totally different so we will see what Total Chaos has to say.

I should probably be done by this weekend. The axles still need to be cut and put together.

Sorry to clog up your thread Brock. Post some pics with that new glass.

I laughed..cus I'm the only 05+ Taco in my town setup for dezert..

[06HAOLE]

Well to clear it up. Total Chaos said that my adjustments were fine and I might even need more since its 4x4.

Brock if that elbow off the shock is resting on the adjustment collar that might be bad if you take a hard hit.

no, no travel is limited, the arm doesn't come close to contacting the hose.

i should have clarified, it was resting on it but i needed to add more preload anyways because i was sitting stinkbug.

[SCEXPLORER]

Brock,
Just wondering if you got the chubby's to work with the LT?

[menacekustoms]

No, that was a LONG time ago. They are in Germany.

[tacosupreme]

No, that was a LONG time ago. They are in Germany.
I'm putting them to good use, no worries.
