Rancho Cucamonga Crew Roll Call

Hey Mason. The solution is to reduce the preload on your springs. You're riding pretty high considering the coils are only 600#, so if you dial back the COs, it will soften up your ride. You'll lose height, but you can afford to. As for the sway bars: if you remove them you significantly increase the tendency to roll, or tilt, to one side while turning. When you come over tomorrow I'll show you on mine. So it's a trade-off...noticeably better off-road performance comes at the cost of a greater likelihood of rollover during high-speed evasive turns. Pick your poison. My truck is no longer my daily, and I judged the risk to be worth it.

 

Hey Nathan. You could eliminate the wandering by increasing caster. I bumped mine up to 4 or so, and noticed that I can maintain a more relaxed grip on the steering wheel on rough roads. Feels WAY better.

 

Went to Firestone here in costa mesa.
Had me in and out in 30 min.
Have yet to take her on the freeway, i will report if it went bad but seems like its good.

 

Correct me if im wrong my frien but my front left had to much tilt "caster" and it caused my wheel bearing to blow out?

 

Mine rolls with 600# springs up front. I'm not talking about driving it like a race car. I'm talking about a hard left at 40 mph to avoid a child in the road. Unlikely of course, but it is a fact that removing the sway bar increases the likelihood of rollover.

 

Wheres all the Jerky?

 

Hey Bryan. If by tilt you mean that the front wheel looked like this (/) when viewed from the front, that is camber.

 

OK thanks man

 

Hmm alrighty because my caster is at 3.8 maybe that extra .2 would help.

 

Can't open the bags right now..... you know how that goes

 

Ol' snap! Not good! Hope it heals up quick !

 

It "is" good, Daniel. corrective surgery for carpal tunnel and trigger finger. After this one gets healed up they will be able to fix the other hand. Thanks for the speedy recovery wishes though

 

Fuck that shit looks like my head when i smashed my face.
I thought you f'ed your shit up good but thats good to know thats for healthy stuff.
Hope it heals well. Will make a bitchen scar.

 

Thanks. Was expecting one in my palm like the one in my wrist, but upon removing the bandages I see why the Doc said it was a bit more involved than he had anticipated.

 

Shit'll buff out

 

OMG, Jimbo. I hope I heals up quick.

 

Thanks Oscar. It's doing well so far, not expecting a prolonged recovery time.
'fraid this puts the nix on any wheeling this month though You'll have to do enough for the both of us

 

For those of you that met Dever in one of the meets or champing.
We just found out that he has a low red blood count. He is in the hospital going thru a blood transfusion at the moment. I hope he pulls thru.
