    Thanks bro

    Yeah it looks level now, but it took some big dips/speed bumps with the quad in the back to settle that AAL. Thanks for the tip;)

    Bring the snips! front definitely needs some. I was able to get 3.8deg of Caster though so hopefully the rear is ok. :notsure:

    Thanks, truck looks so different now. Long ass truck looks better up high.

    Thanks, I really like the black wheels on the dark truck.

    It's an 89 Toyota Pickup. I got some stuff done to it.. FJ axles going under it soon.
    If I ever ever ever ever ever for some reason decide to go ballistic and buy a 2nd Gen..it'd be a DC Long Bed for sure. They look tits jacked up.



































    Now I'd have to be out of my mind considering buying a 2nd Gen :spy:
    :D

    No offence to anybody! :anonymous:

    That looks great, Rich. Kings, sweet.

    Have you gotten an alignment yet? I have an appt. with Firestone tomorrow and lets hope they do it right. It needs it for sure. It squeals around turns even at slower speeds...a sign of a whacked out alignment.

    Now if only I can find some wheels I like that are actually IN stock!

    ...too much shit to list.
    Rear is simple. You won't have to do anything. Snips will take care of the rubbing on the front fenderwell. Couple of zip ties to pull the fenderwells in and out of the way and you'll be all set. Might need a CMC as well, but Pismo will let you know if you need to trim anywhere else for sure.

    Hey buddy, ready to see some pics of your truck with some new treads...

    Yeah, the truck is aligned. My fronts were squealing around sharp corners before as well. That is gone now.

    Coming to Pismo?

    THANKS A LOT to Jason for doing the CMC on my truck. And for the overtime spent doing it. It came out really nice.

    My arms are scarred for life.....or maybe just till tomorrow. Fucking shavings did a number on my arms though. If I ever do a CMC again I'll get a 7" grinder and wear long sleaves for sure

    Rich,
    Got mine aligned today and squeal gone. Sweet. Paid $170 for lifetime too. Tech was cool. I'm thinking of Fuel Boost wheels. They're sweet though a bit more bank than my original Black Rhino Ocotillos that are out of stock. Where'd you buy the tires/wheels and have them mounted? Seems like the least expensive was $100 including switching the OE TPMS, if you don't buy the wheels from them.

    Jason.
    I was wondering about your skin getting toasted. With all those sparks flying, it's gotta burn something. Ouch.

    Hopefully I won't have any rubbing after installing my 265/70R17s.

    Yeah, i been meaning to get a welding jacket for this exact reason. I have a 7 inch grinder with a cut off wheel I specifically bought for this, but its too big and powerful. very hard to control doing the more precision cuts.

    Yeah a welding jacket is a life saver but take it from me and get a leather one or Miller CarbonX Fabric the cotton ones still burn up (mine did :() and i should have a plasma before my next mod day so no need for a grinder :D

    Who in their right mind would produce a cotton welding jacket? That just makes no sense. Much worse who would buy one??? LoL
