---BRO-COMA--- 3rd Gen. Build - 30% Bro, 60% Build and 25% BS

My mom talked to your mom and she said your pops is asking about a $1300 purchase on his credit card.

 

Bro, thanks for the heads up. Baldy's been hella weird lately. I think he's getting ready to kick me out of the house.

Also, tires wont be ready till tomorrow. Bummer dude.

 

Well got bored so worked a little on beefing up the front skid plate. Biggest worry is the curbs at Urban Outfitters.

Pulled the skid and made another paper template. RC Skid measures like .135" thick. Not nearly mall rated.


Traced the Template onto some 3/16" plate. Oddly the existing angle cut into the plate matched the angle I needed.


Made for a perfect fit. I'll have my fab bro weld it up on the sides and add some side gussets along with a bunch of plug welds. Having a fab dude that works for Coors Light is pretty sweet.


I also noticed Hoonigan stickers have been popping up all over the Bay Area on lifted trucks, especially trucks with light bars. So I decided I should order a few, all about the street cred.

 

Word. Glad you're still with it. This place is across the street from one of the schools I've been working at for 6 years - you can see it in some of the angles. There's shipping containers and chainlink fences around the parking lot now - bros 'n da hood don't mix lol. That said they're alright with me.

 

Can't wait to see em.
1 month till Vday, looking on track to take your swole-mate out in style.

 

I read this the first time and thought you said "can't even see them." Brain's on vacation bro.

 

Unfortunately, if it isn't white and say Z71 on the side, the brohoes tend to look the other way. That's when the AXE products come into play.

Edit: Swole-mate, I just got that, nice bro. You hella triggered me to start doing curls.

 

Two sets of KbrO2's, in the back of the Bro-Cummins, level 9!


@BROcephus and I were parched from watching the tire guys load up the tires, so we headed to the nearest Starbucks Reserve for some Cold Pressed goodness.

 

Bro, that's beautiful!

 

What does the 2017 Raptor and the Bro-Coma have in common... C-Rated 315/75r16 KO2's

Sorry Bro's, I only had two cans of tire shine, so I couldn't get them glossing.

Tire came out pretty nice, and they weight less than 1lb more than the Stock OR wheels with 295/75r16's.







<295's, 315's>




32psi no load they measure a tad under 34 3/4"

 

Sorry for the multiple posts, two many pics.

I decided to take the 1.25" wheel spacers off, seemed like to much offset, plus I didn't feel like trimming the fenders tonight.

With Spacers.


With Spacers.


Clearance so far is good, no rub. I'm at about 4.75" of lift in the front.

Front bumper clearance at full steer


I'll probably need a CMS pretty soon, but right now it clears at full steer.

 

Here I am thinking 275s will be enough for me and you show up with this. Tire envy is a bitch..

 

It got dark, so I don't have any good pics. Drove it around for a bit, and man it rides nice with the C-Rated 315 tires (113/110S). So smooth and not jarring. I will say though, the E-rated 295's (128/125R) that I just took off, didn't ride nearly as bad as I thought.

2.7L pulls the Dirty Cinco's no problem, surprisingly . Not a rocket, but totally drive-able. If the 4.88's are too low, I'll be going to some Dirty 7's, or maybe a larger 35". I think I will be sticking with a C-Rated tire, the ride is really nice.



Front pic with no Wheel Spacer. The steering feels better also, I'm not sure why though?
They are wide as hell.

 

Nice build broham.

Even better tire shine.

 

Yeah, I apologize, I only had two cans of T-Shine, it was the best I could do bro.

I'm just bummed the 315's don't have white walls

 

Really? On either side?

 

LMFAO bro T-shine!

Phuck it bro. When I'm in an emergency situation I use some of pops ol' hair oil and the inside of a banana peel. Works like a dream on the Bro2's

 

Yeah, I was shocked, appalled and Triggered AF.

I asked for white walls out, and when I went to pick them up, I was like WTF tire bro? Then realized both sided were black walls. Looks like I might need new tires now.
