Mademan925's Truck....

mmmm,snow truck porn

 

Ate you trying to set a record on changing the name of your thread? Is that another award?

 

I havnt found a name Im happy with with yet....

 

These chains worked out great on my 35s. Definitely need two sets of tensioners though.

 

Ooohhh let the fans name it!

How about "my build gets more traffic than a truck stop glory hole...."

 

Just doesn't have the jenesequa im looking for

 

Truck is rad.

My lowers came loose often until I used redloc liberally and torqued to 120

 

damn id hate to have to torque the uniball in that environment.

 

Yeah. I did that but its been a few months and some bumpy miles... Im going to drill a hole through the bolt and slip a cotter pin through as a hard stop so my truck never hits the ground.

 

I didn't have the right size socket.... Hit it with some blue lock tight that I had and took my crescent with a pipe from my floor jack on the end of it and pulled it as tight as I could.

 

Safety wire would probably be a better idea

 

But what would I attached the wire to. to keep the bolt from spinning.

 

You mean on a hill. with the truck on Ice. on a high lift when its 17 degrees out.

 

Something like this, i know it wont exactly like this

"13. We also took a moment to secure a few other key fasteners, such as this one holding the lower shock mount in place. In this case, David drilled out the bolt and secured it to the shock collar. vette"

 

yeah that....that would not be ideal. Anger inducing i would say.

 

What did they do on the nut side to keep it from spinning?

 

Drill a hole in the lower section of the bolt and cotter pin that thing! lol

 

I dont think that situation has a nut on the opposite side.

 

K. probably going to do the cotter pin but maybe I can come up with something. Someone told me they welded a bead to the bottom of the bolt so the nut could never come off.
