Oahu Members Thread

Same here. I was probably reading all my recent subs at 4:30 this am...

what time do you guys think you'll finish today? Are you guys gonna hit the sand to test her out after?

 

They smash down pretty far. I have them loaded in the attached pics, but not to the point where all the load is on it. The other tire is still on the ground, so it will compress a little more. They work well hauling too. Just ran a load of ceramic tile on the bed. The superbumps smoothed out the ride, and I know that they were hitting. I had about an inch before contact with the truck loaded up.
Depends on your shock length, the pedestal may be too high for your needs, I'd measure first, or you guys may end up losing travel.

 

How's the install going?

 

you went into your garage last night specifically to take that picture didn't you. bastard.


that's what I meant by "I spend way too much time on here."
when I passed 20k, noticed that I've been banned from this place more than a dozen times, and have my own damn emoticon I realized this place is ruining me. lol

there used to be only four hawaii TW members that were active, now there's so many of you.

brings tears to my eyes

 

Just figured if I was going to take the effort (and spend $0.23) to be able to cut one circle, then I should make it cut as many different sizes as I could

Went to bed at 230, woke up at 145...

Wait, wait.. They made that pineapple specifically for you? That explains a lot..

 

Do I really need a sway bar relocate bracket with a 3" ome lift? Anyone know what vendors carry the sway bar relocate kit and who has better quality to value shipped to Hawaii?

 

Just pull the damn thing off and be done with it

 

Sorry, forgot to put if I wanted to keep it on for on-road purposes.

 

Toytec got them for $29.00 https://toyteclifts.3dcartstores.co...or-07-09-FJ-05-UP-Tacoma-03-09-4Run_p_12.html

 

I took mine off and it handles better without it.

I do have a lot of extra weight and stiff springs though.

 

It's charging me $14+ in shipping...damn Hawaii shipping. Emailed Marie at headstrong if they carry it. They've been awesome thus far with free shipping on most things to Hawaii while maintaining competitive pricing. There was a couple on eBay, though researching the validity of the vendor.

Thanks for sharing. Will run 885 coils, though not planning on installing any bumper and winches like many others.

 

I still have my diff drop if anybody needs 1.

 

Wait, do you mean why do I have 5 for each size? I didn't have enough room to label each size so the farthest left line is every size on the inch, the second line is every size plus 1/4", third line is plus 1/2", forth is plus 3/4", and fifth line is plus 1/8". That's all in overall diameter, not radius.

Just made a bare-bones router table today! About $10 worth

 

Sorry for bringing the rain to kapolei, my truck was asking for some love.

 

Anyone we know? Fabtech 6in

 

Nope... but makes me think (now that I am learning more every day).. does the guy wheel it? He got a heavy duty front and rear bumper and even a winch, but then a non heavy duty from skid and the factory side steps.. even if I don't go off road much, my sliders will protect and give me a place for my hilift (as the factory jack is probably worthless).

 

probably stays on the sand, hence the winch

 

I love floor jacks lol. But i was also looking (just looking) at front and rear armor bumpers. Alot of then cone with winch cutouts. That just makes me want to buy a winch just to say i got 1.

 

If I had a winch I would probably tie to a tree and just pull my truck around for fun..

 

adding the wiring for the 4wd is not as bad as I thought...but its still a hot mess.
