Siri wasn't very helpful this morning.

I shouldn't drink before noon.

 

Getting a little better. Focus is the hardest part.

Your truck parts still are not in. It's been forever.

 

So it's been 18 days since I originally called Sierra Expeditions and told them to order the parts to replace my clutch and they claimed to have ordered them. Hadn't heard anything 2 weeks later so I called and was told they were suppose to be in today (which was Wednesday) and they would call me later to confirm. Still haven't heard a word since. It does not take that long to get a clutch kit. The 3.4L and R150f is a very very popular combo.

Will seems like a good guy, but really?

 

Yeah I know. Been waiting on the shocks but got word they shipped Friday so I should have them mid week this week. With any luck I'll have everything on in a few weeks.

 

does anybody know If I can get just the LCA bushings from energy suspension? I see they have a whole kit that covers uppers and lowers but I don't need $60 worth of upper bushings

 

That's great. Are you putting them on or having someone else do it.

 

I know you can't for first gens.

 

You can, its just a pain in the ass.

 

should I call energy direct then? Maybe they have a p/n they can provide?

 

The infamous @snowtank has graciously offered to help. Just have to figure out our schedules since mine sucks and I work weekends. I have so much shit to install he may regret it by the end of the day!

 

No problem dude. Just got to find a time and place that works. And see If anyone else wants to join inaswell

 

I know @Techoma mentioned at the last ride he would be willing to join in on the fun. I'm more than willing to host but I have two major problems. I don't have a flat driveway and I don't have the right tools. Otherwise I'd probably be able to get it done myself.

 

So I have a set of bronze Konig counter steers that I'd love to put on the '16 taco. Anyone know if the lug/bolt offset etc are all the same. I ran them on my 2011 and 2013.

 

My stuff has been all over the place:
Coilovers: 3 months, but they were custom length
Fiberglass fenders: 1 month way faster than expected
Tires: 2 days
Front locker/gears: 3-4 months
Rear locker repair parts during install: 1 day

 

Went out it WeRock Congress today. Ended up following my buddy Adam around since he was competing in his Sami buggy.

First shot is a Trail Gear moonbuggy dropping off a 10' ledge.

 

I have tools and such. At my house I have a slanted driveway. I will check about the shop. But we dont really need a bunch of tools. Whatsthe list of stuff you have that needs to go on?
