Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

But then again, I keep getting emails from the places I got my lowers that are doing a full build package for black friday. So we'll see if there's anything worth it that pops up

 

Palmetto State Armory, be quick though, it sells out quick!

 

Any of you guys running the wheeler super bumps? I'm gonna order my all pro u bolt flip through them tomorrow and I need to do something for the rear bumps in particular.

Seems like a good price and primary use is more rock crawling than high speed

 

Lets go!

 

Heh, I'm buying them next week.

I think @Bentrodder is running them now?

 

If by running you mean staring at them on the floor of my garage, then yes I am.

 

That's exactly what I meant!

 

Ran them for a while - big improvement over stock. Takes the harsh edge off bottoming events. They're really good.

 

So I took the 4runner out on a drive today around the block and noticed it smelled like it was burning oil in the exhaust and ran really rough at first (died multiple times and idled rough/low). After I got back home I checked it out and there was oil dropping on the headers and all down the back of the engine and steering rack.

Could a valve cover leak do that? There is a ton of residue right by the rear valve cover bolt and you can see where it dripped right onto the header. Couldn't see anything coming out consistently when I turned it back on and looked with a flashlight.

 

Good to know I'll go ahead and order a set with the flip kit

 

More than I'd want locals to pay...

I bought lower than market value, because the guy wanted to sell quick. 8 people contacted him in 16 hours after posting. A few wanted to fly in, rent a truck, and drive it cross country. Maybe because used 4wc's for DCSB's are rare

I usually sell parts for much less than I paid, and give away OEM parts, but I'm going to try make a little bit on this one.

Got projects to fund...

I'll let you know first.

 

Yes for sure. Tighten the valve cover bolts I bet they are loose. I'm always checking both my 3.4s

 

Hmm outta town the 3/4 and 10/11 but could possibly do next weekend 26/27. I don't have any power tools but we could knock out everything but the bumps easy peasy. You could prob come here if you need

 

FTFY


edit - I spy a Ballast Point...

 

Lol...you got me

Yes sir. Gave me a quick buzz. Much stronger than my norm, coors light.

 

sippin on another bomber of Bike Dog Brewing's San Dog IPA. good chit!

 

Brewary is down the street from my job

 

oh i like the sound of doing it earlier
maybe I can come down on the 27 sunday
and we could knock everything out I've got power tools so we could do the bumps or I could just run stockos for a week and then go to @EDDO the next weekend to do the bumps
either way I'm already grateful to all you guys for trying to help me get it up

if that works for you guys (mainly @BudMan and @EDDO) then that is the most appealing to me
