I have a question. what is AAL?

 

Even if he wasn't he would have been after that ... Course so would I and probably had to have had my skivvies removed by an ER Dr lol.

Add A Leaf usually referred to an extra leaf spring added to the normal leaf pack to support an occasional heavier load.

Good Morning 50,s, Sunday-funday. We have rain today, hopefully it will cool off a bit. Got the lawn mowed yesterday, I did not know I could sweat that much. The lawn looks like straw in most places, I don't water it, to hard on the well pump. Ordered a new 5spd shift knob from AJT Design, black with stainless bolts, should look coool. Turns out the guy is from Michigan, small world. Not to many Toyota fans in my area, the big 3 rule the roost. I was shocked at how many Tacoma's we saw on our trip to the Smokies, they were everywhere. Well you kid's have a good one, enjoy. AAL=Add A Leafspring.

 

Thanks Cypher

 

thanks Jim

 

good morning to all! I will get you that info for you today. Lots to do today-wash truck,mow grass, and a litttle bit of electrical to do.
back in a while

 

wow it has cooled down a lot after the rain it's 64 now.

 

Good Morning! And Have A Good Day!
Your questions been answered Bob. They offer a single leaf witch comes in 1.5" lift or 2"'s of lift. They also offer a 3 leaf mini pack witch is referred as a progressive AAL. I'm installing the 3 leaf one and removing my overload spring to achieve 1.5"s of lift.

 

Wow so many options. my last vehicle was a 07 Ridgeline the second year in production very few if any options. hell I couldn't find a bed mat. I had to use a cow mat and cut it.

 

Good morning all! Hope everyone stays cool today and hydrated. 85 now with heat index of 95, supposed to see heat index near 110 later today.

Welcome Tony, what a day, glad you're safe.

Busy day today, mow grass, need to wire my LED light bar, and some shopping with girl friend. Gotta try and beat the heat and humidity.

 

Lol!! Yea another thing people do to gain lift and to have a much better complete rear spring pack is they switch it out with a aftermarket one like Allpro, Dakar or Deaver just to mention a few.

 

Just got a nasty email from my boss.....Not 100% sure just yet how I'm going to respond, but let me tell y'all about it;

My crew....I'm 59 in 11 days. Also on staff, 57, 56, 55, 55, 53, 48, and 46. (Boss is 56 BTW) I just got slammed for having an "old washed up bunch of has beens".

I've had health issues, but I'm doing fine now. The 56 yo is in his 48th week of lung cancer treatment, but still here every day. The rest will work circles around everyone else in this place and two are marathon runners.

I don't insult easily, but this just chaps my ass.....

Gonna think about this a while before I respond......Old my ass..... Now you see why I find him so irritating....

 

both funny and scary just didn't like the idea they made ya'll leave don't like what may have happened to the bear. i deal with them quite a bit here while hunting in the mountains and they deffinatly command your respect but they are incredibly entertaining to watch. welcome to the thread there's a great bunch of people here

Had a young supervisor give my Shift Lead something of the same. my lead just looked at him and said "My shift has over 100 years of millwright experience. Put a price on that.....now go away".

 

add-a-leaf additional leaf springs for a leaf spring suspension you can get as either a single or a three leaf pack

 

good morning every one have a great day!

 

Just sent my boss an email; I told him that it would be my recommendation that ANYONE over the age of 50 be dismissed IMMEDIATELY, HIM INCLUDED.

We'll see how that is received......

 

I told the wife it was a good thing I took a dump before going to work, otherwise; I would have left a brown trail of crap.

The officer with the 12 guage was ready to shoot the bear but then after thinking about it he decided the public relations nightmare would not be worth it.

I was more upset with the neighbor lady who said she knew the bear was there and called animal control who have not extricated the bear. We could have been killed and eaten under an 80 year old house and the ethical treatment of animals blah blah blah ..... I am alive to tell the story and another day on this side of the dirt is ok by me. Thanks for the welcomes all !!

 

Put the fishing rods down for the day and caught a good tide for the elusive clam.
Guess I know what'll be on the menu today.
I'll have a few dozen on the grill and the big ones,I'll boil them up this week, vacuum seal them and make batches of Stuffies at another date.
Yum, I can hear them talking to me now...
