Well, I've got some new parts coming my way, and I sure do need some help with the install. I've already talked to BruceTS, and he was nice enough to agree to host the wrenchathon at his place (Granada Hills). The more help, the merrier. Here's what's on the agenda..

Install/Replace:
- Donahoe Racing Coilovers
- Camburg Engineering Uni-Ball Upper A-Arms
- Kartek Replacement Inner CV boots on both front axles
- Front Diff Drop


Additionally, if there's time and we're up for it, installing/replacing:
- Panhard Drop
- Front Swaybar Bushings
- 2 Front Shackle Hangers



So if you're free next Sunday, come on down and join the fun and hang out with some YotaTechies. Naturally, food and on me. I appreciate the help.

PM me for directions.

 

What time will this party end on Sunday? I've got some new leafs for my Taco that need replacing, but I don't get off work until 4pm

 

BUMP

Sounds like fun, I might be able to show...

 

Peter:
I guess you'll be in the area eh? Looks like it'll be sweet party! Hopefully I'll be able to help out woohoo!

 

Heck if enough people show up, we can make it a clean up my garage-a-thon as well

I'll have to get with Charles on exactly what time he wants to start, to do the A-Arms and coilovers won't take long at all, but the rest we'll see...

 

I'm thinking...10AM? It's sunday here, so not too early

 

Bruce!

Does this clean-a-thon mean I can grab whatever I want I'm pretty sure I could find some cool stuff!

 

I've got a lot of work coming ahead of me but I might be able to sneak a day and see the inner workings of this install.

Shoot, I might have a new toy to show off too
Don't want to speak too soon though.

Next week 10am, hmmm
I'll have to get back to you guys. Not that I can help in any way other than tool-monkey but the experience would be cool.

 

That's what I was thinking too! I need a spare 265/75 bfg for my bumper carrier. I know they're just collecting dust in your garage, Bruce.

 

I might have some time. Send me your info.

 

Picked up the 'hoes and camburgs tonight.

Looking forward to Sunday...


BTW, I'll soon have some 2.5" cornfed spacers and 2002 4wd front springs up for sale. I'll make a thread about it later.

 

Can't make it - have to work this weekend
Sorry fellas, one less tool monkey in the garage

 

anyone who's coming...see you around 10 tomorrow.

 

Ok, yesterday I actually cleaned up a bit in my garage, so it'll be easier to get around. Charles, I'll be moving my boat out of the driveway, so just go ahead and park there when you show up.

 

thanks bruce and lance for your help.

ain't it puuurtty?


we also got in the sway bar bushings and diff drop. some parts took a bit longer than expected, but a very producive day nonetheless. now to get my front diff fixed.

 

OOoooooOOOOOooooh!
NICE

 

looks awesome! howz the ride compared to your old setup?

 

much stiffer, much better. gonna wait a week for the springs to settle, then adjust accordingly. i can't wait to test these out on some trails. and especially at pismo.

 

Looked good today Charles. Nice looking setup.
It was nice seeing you guys too. Nice trucks all.
Also, Charles, way to get under the truck and get dirty yourself!!
Next, update the sig.

 

thanks...

done and done.


i'm not too mechanically inclined, but i'd like to think i'm learning and i did what i could.
