Long Day in the shop...

u still have ur swaybar off or did u put it back on?

 

I'll trade you a glock, and a mossberg for your topper
they are on the right sides, the UCA's weren't removed when we did this front end work. See pics on page 1

 

I put it back on, and that didn't solve the problem like we were hoping

 

that is the last thing i need is another gun.

 

bueller? bueller?

 

Please take a pic and show us where it is rubbing.

 

Not my setup, but should get the idea. Where the red circle is, the ball joint housing rubs the coil when the UCA's droop

 

I can jack the truck up & take the wheels off to get better pics later when im off work if needed

 

went back and read it again, what about the diff drop, i don't have 4x4 so don't really know if that would do it, cv's should not do it.

 

I thought about the dif drop...and I was going to try and reverse that to see if that fixed the issue, but we tossed the original bolts

 

The diff drop should not effect this.

Did you remove the LCA when you worked on the front?

This is a problem with either:

- Upper Control arm
- lower control arm
- shock/strut mounts

Something is out of alignment.

edit: or something got bent when jumping...

 

UCA, and LCA was left in place, and we didnt remove the struts

 

that could happen, does Rene have tc uca's, if so check them out or someone who has, see if you can get some measurements in the front end.

 

the repairs were done May 21st, thats when the problem started. I didn't jump my truck until after that on May 30th

I think im going to take the front end apart again, and re-assemble it. maybe soemthing just went together wrong? i dunno

 

nick this sunday im down to experiment and figure out what ur rubbage is... skip the diff drop, not a good idea to mess with the angle, esp in the front.... we'll make a day out of it. i need to lube up my bushings and leaf pack, im squeaking on any little movement

 

hey Rene, didn't you get a new leaf pack.

 

yeah i got dennys old icon pack... i didnt have any lube at the time (big mistake) so now its making more noise than a shag wagon

 

good deal. if you want, get some solder and we'll fix your console too

 

sounds good, ill pick some up when i get the teflon.

P.S. is ur teflon the spray kind or the other?

 

its in a tub, no spray
