I can't stand the sound my wiper motor makes....... From what I've read it seems pretty normal though.

 

I don't even notice mine.

 

I believe Noel nailed it, x fer case, diffs, plugs, tranny, oil and air filter. My serpentine belt was pretty worn and one of my pull-ups was shot by then or shortly after. Personally, I would recommend flushing the brake lines also.

 

I'm guessing he's taking about his taco...

 

I was talking about the Taco but yes, the Ford is past 60k and I haven't even had to replace the suspension twice to make it haul half what it's actually rated for.

 

But you haz no PIAA on da Ferd

 

True... I do have Rigid Industries on there though! And some Avecs but they aren't overly exciting.

 

No worries my brother, PIAA lives on in your stead..

Looking at punching bags and getting so annoyed..so many different prices on Walmart for what really look the same style/weight. Feels like I need it right now haha

 

Hey Seth, how did everything work out with your FJ?

 

^^^ Looks good

Morning everyone. Happy Friday.

 

Anyone?

 

Cricket... I had a very fun morning. Got to go jogging in a Marsh.

 

^^^ That doesn't sound like fun at all

 

Morning everyone!

And do tell more!

 

Kid ran from me early in the night. He's friends stayed wasn't able to find him as I was tied up with them. He then tried to steal a boat and break into a house. didnt end well for him.

 

WTF?!?!

 

Cool. Did the friends give him up?

 

Ha good question. Everything is all nice and.back together. However, when I went to get it aligned the tech said he couldn't get the wheel straight. It's aligned fine, but the wheel is a -45 deg angle when going straight which causes the vsc, trac, atrac lights to light up since the steering position sensor reads the wheel is out of spec. I've got to bring it back and get them to loosen everything and try again, no reason it shouldn't align.

It rides really nicely though, especially with big bumps, expansion joints etc and the superbumps. They do awesone to soak up big hits. Still haven't got the rear springs in yet, but it sits pretty much level with the rear as is. I want to get the rake back so the new rear springs should get it there.

One thing that's annoying me is the left to right variance. The passenger side is like 3/4-1" higher than the drivers, and that's with the 1/4" spacer in the drivers side. I have to triple check that I don't have the passenger side 5100 set at the 1st notch up, but I could swear I set it to the bottom notch before putting the springs on.

So overall the situation has improved since its drivable, but not the outcome I was hoping for.

 

That kind of sucks. Hope you get it all sorted out. Let me know if you need a hand

 

Short-staffed today. One guy is semi-retired and has Thursday and Friday off. One coworker's out with the flu, too. And guess who's assigned to cover their duties when they're not in?
