That's awesome lol I'm trying to convince my brother to get one now. Best truck I've ever owned

 

Alfuh,

Was it you that had energy suspension bushings on your lowers?

 

yup

 

that's what are in my chevy leafs

 

Where did you buy them and how bad/weird were they to install?

 

From energy suspensions website lol. They were a pain in the ass to install. Gotta burn the old rubber ones out. Then grind away all the old rubber on the sleeve that you burn out then press the sleeves and bushings into the LCA and you're good to go. A lot easier said than done...lol

 

Here's the link for them lol

So you leave the outer shell in lca? Sounds odd

 

Have auto zone price match them compared to Amazon like we did

 

Interesting way to leave the outer bushing sleeve in like that. I don't like it

 

To do the black headlight mod or not to do. Hm

 

Do it! Looks so much better.

 

I think I will this weekend, it doesn't look too hard to do either

 

When you get married these are the debates you will have lol Fiona is @Tisa4runner14 4Runner and Trinity is my Tacoma

 

^ LOL let me know how that works out fer ya....hahaha

 

I swear I always get put last lol

 

LOL dude there will always be something....Dogs, then kids, then new house, then this and that and this......next you'll be 40 with kids and dogs and soccer on Saturdays and Baseball on Sundays and ballet on Mondays wondering when da fuk did this shit all happen....

 

Lol I've heard that somewhere before we just moved to a 5 bedroom place on 5 acres then got a horse and 6 dogs and 3 cats and 3 goats and 25 chickens and a pig and 2 ducks haha all within the year. It was from 1974 so she hates all the floors and all that so we try to balance between all of that. Then waiting a few years on kids to get everything straight (and the trucks built) it sucks going out in a stock truck

 

^hahaha yep well sounds like yall are off to a good start! The truck will get there. Keep the wife happy and the rest will fall into place when your least expecting it too.

 

Outer shell? I don't remember an outer shell being in the LCA bushing housing. I just remember taking a torch to the rubber bushings then taking a socket to smash them out then cleaning the inside to press the new bushings in. Just took forever since we have to grind away the rubber on the inner sleaves to press them into the polyurethane bushings. I haven't had any issues at all with mine, all my creaks and pops went away once I changed to the poly bushings. I should probably loosen the LCA bolt and retorque them since the bushings look like their bulging
