The old black bitch is back from the shop and running strong after the rebuild. That and a new alignment have done wonders. Time to get her out tomorrow and stretch her legs for the first time since the lift.

I need to find sometime to meet up with you and get that fancy shmancy spring compressor to throw that extra puck in the front too. P

by Ty Thu Jun 26, 2014 7:30 am

It's nothing fancy!! Just functional! You can rent them from Autozone, the problem is I've heard they are dangerous. The one I made is super simple and wont slip off. I just need to find it!! Then you can have it. I don't plan to compress any 4runner coils anytime soon!!

This is what happens when I get bored around my house on my days off now. My big guard thingy broke, so the front of the good got the spray on bed liner treatment and my grill finally got turned black. Slowly all the chrome on my rig is going to be disappearing.

When are you going to adjust the front suspension?

by **offroad_medic** Thu Jul 10, 2014 11:35 pm

Whenever Ty finds his spring compressor and I get it. I'm going to be in Cali next week though so hopefully right after that so I can get my alignment redone under the 30 day guarantee.

When is your 30 days up??

Next week I think. It's already pulling to the left again though, so no matter what it's going back in this week and they're getting told to fix it.

Do you work Friday? I will be up in Brigham Friday for a while. You should come up and we could add those blocks quick then you could take it in.

I work Friday graveyards. What time are you going to be in Brigham?

by Ty Mon Jul 21, 2014 10:25 am

I'm thinking I will be up p there around 10am

by **offroad_medic** Mon Jul 21, 2014 10:33 am

If you get up there early and we can get it thrown on nice and quick then Friday would work out. I just need to be home by 4 at the latest.

by **dutchman** Mon Jul 21, 2014 11:56 am

I may be able to come up Friday to help.

That could be a good time....how far away is the redneck obstacle course Ty? I wouldn't mind trying out the flex of my rig finally.

by Ty Mon Jul 21, 2014 5:34 pm

I'm thinking I will be up there around 10 or 11. There is no reason we couldn't have you home by 4.

The obstacle course is only a couple minutes away. We could easily check it out.

It shouldn't take long to get your rig done. I'm planning on pulling my rear leafs off and working on re building them as well as getting my 44 torn down so maybe my dad can set up the gears next week.

by **offroad_medic** Thu Aug 07, 2014 5:12 pm

We'll if any of you or anyone you know has some 33's for 16" rims laying around I'm looking. I found a nice set of Mickey thompsons on ksl but didn't have the cash immediately.
