Any of yall do a cab mount chop and leave it open? i need to do the chop but i dont have access to a welder.

 

I've seen people have that and they say it is fine, I also think if you have an impact that compromises the cab mounts, you may have bigger issues. I think any shop with a welder would do it for fairly cheap too. Sorry none of that is knowledge from doing it on my own truck

 

i mean i could burn it on with my buddys Harbor Junk Flux Core Welder, but it
probably wont be a good weld.

 

I booger welded mine with an old buzz box. Looks "ok" structurally sound... Probably noo.

 

me. for about 80K at least.

 

I've heard the plates are cosmetic. You're probably okay until you can get to a real welder.

 

Given how you wheel, that probably means okay for life for us mortals

 

Same here, and I took A LOT more off than the normal chop. No issues.

 

I cut mine way back, and used 10 gauge plates, so this might as well be cosmetic.

Miss Liz

we were at the Isaac's

 

so all this front end talk is perfect timing, i have to do my rotors/pads soon and I was going to go ahead and get ball joints, and replace the hub assembly while i was at it.

what else should I check/fix/replace while i have her apart??

when is this mod day? I have no parts sitting around but i'd come help and hang if i'm free, be nice to meet some of you fellas

 

Saturday the 23rd.

There is a big jump in PITA from pads/rotors to hubs and ball joints unless you have hub ball joint issues I would mess with them.

 

Ball joints starting to leak a tiny bit and I've been avoiding hubs for awhile now.

Figured it'd be best to get it all done at one time. I'll probably stock pile parts for the next month then find a weekend to do it all.

 

Do yourself a favor and get the pre assembled hub/bearing. They are a bitch to do even with a press. My inner reace was seized the the spindle and had to get creative to get it off

 

Only one I know in Jersey is Kev @nj636 from Jersey Built Hubs. Jerseybuilthubs.com uses all oem parts and sells em preassembled

 

Bamatoy also sells them

 

Makes sense. Might want to do CV boots too.

 

Fuck that guy. Lol
