San Diego BS Thread.

Did a set of cam tab gussets a couple days ago..just posted this in my Work thread but figured I would do it here too in case anybody needs some installed.

 

Night run or not...

 

Good morning SD, I'm heading out that way later today and will be in town for a couple days. Do any of you have some must do/see for a visitor. Looking for some cool hiking spots, wheeling spots, grub, anything really. I'll be out at Mission Bay.

 

Torrey Pines is great for hiking near the ocean but it's probably 25-30 min from Mission Bay depending where you're at.

Drive safe and enjoy your time here!

 

My favorite place to eat is Lil Piggy's BBQ on Coronado Island, very good ice cream near mission bay is Mr. Frostie in pacific beach, the absolute best soft serve around.

 

Installed a lift on an FJ yesterday. A mix of different parts but it gets the job done. King COs, TC UCAs, Icon rear shocks and icon rear springs I think!
Turned out really good made a huge difference in height, the old suspension was totally sacked out!

 

Definitely would like to get some put on. I need to it's the one thing I forgot to do when putting LT in stupid me. Ill shoot you a PM

 

So my girlfriend helps with a local dog rescue that focuses on pit/American staffordshire mix dogs. They are in desperate need of people to help foster dogs untill they find a home. The rescue provides everything the dogs need, you just provide a place for them to stay

 

Haha, you got it, a lot of people dont do it and wonder why the truck starts pulling to one side after a day of off roading especially with LT since they tend to get "USED" to its fullest extent (and beyond lol) . If you look at the pics I posted he had two of the tabs flattened out from the cam knocking it over since its just a weak sheet metal tab welded on to the chassis.
I have done over 15 sets so I can almost do them with my eyes closed at this point but I promise not to try that just to prove a point on your rig haha!
Another thing I recommend for LT trucks (if you dont have them yet) are the tower gussets for the UCAs keeps the tower and frame from flexing and just makes it much stronger since it ties the tower into the actual frame.
BTW those pics of your truck look nice, sweet rig bud!
PM me anytime and Ill get you dialed in.

I wish I could take one or two, no fence and a kitty cat do not allow at this time. Hope they find some good homes for the doggies!

 

does anybody have a set of longer then stock ubolts laying around for sale?

 

No but I can bend some up for you tomorrow if your not in a rush ?

 

Not in a rush, was going to order some online but figure id ask around here first. Price?

 

Repost from my work thread again from this morning's lift
Did a lift today, OME 3" and Dakar spring pack. Came out great!!
Thanks for choosing me for the service, I go the extra mile grinding lower mounts for shock body clearance, greasing all bushings inside and out, tightening all the spring bolts when at ride height to make sure there is no weird spring preload ( the front spring bushings are molded to the spring so they have a limited amount of twist and they always try to go back to "home" position).
It's all these little things that I do that make the difference! And it's attention to detail that keeps my customers coming back and hopefully recommending my work to others.

Anyway here's what I did this morning!

 

Getting work done man. Glad the work flow is steady

 

Thanks, trying to keep as busy as possible! So far its been working out great.

 

I'm trying to build a cab cage while working full time at the desk job. Painful slow process if you want to have somewhat of a social life

 

Anyone, ideally near North County, know a good place to get my CO2 tank filled?

 

https://www.airgas.com/ ? Pretty sure they have a north county location

 

Or westair in Escondido

 

I think I saw one in San marcos
