Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Mine are AP front/rear.

 

awesome. I have my rears thanks to @Kelvin but i've been neglecting my fronts and thats tight as hell cranked either way at droop. Not trying to have a failure.

 

My fronts are still in the packaging they came in ayear ago

Actually gonna be doing them this weekend though

 

I bought these front and rear. They are very nice without the name brand mark up. Not a single negative review from what I remember. Read through and see what you think.

sounds about right

 

Same, I also bought F/R from him. Any length you need just let him know.

 

I bought my fronts from Wheeler's, when I did the Tundra brake upgrade. And bought my rear brake line from the same guy you guys did. Remember I have a 1st gen so I only had to buy a single rear brake line. It was $32 shipped. Same quality as the fronts as far as I can tell. Maybe better. Logistical wise wasn't so good. He sent mine to a guy w/ a 2nd gen in South Carolina and his rear brake lines to me. So I had to wait an extra week for the guy in SC to ship them to me.

 

What the hells going on up there? Cabin fever.

Wish I kept that truck... Would be nice to have it as a daily since I got great mileage in it and it had the long bed.

 

Here's my AP fronts to give you an idea of the slack at full droop. Not sure if your coilovers and TC lowers give you more droop than me. Mine are the "extended travel" Fox's, but they didn't measure much longer than 5100's. Sorry, don't have the extended measurement.

Also...swaybar.

 

I bought the wheelers because there were no fitment issues reported. Some of the others take some more parts and additional work.

 

may want to do a full bleed and flush. I did it when I swapped all 4 of mine to SS and my fluid was nasty.

 

the wheelers ones are longer than stock?

 

I got the rears in +4 so yes. The fronts I can't recall, when I go SAS I need to replace them anyway so no biggie.

 

x whatever on these. I thought I had uploaded pics, but apparently I did not. Very nice quality. The biggest issue people have is just getting their old lines off if they've been on for a while. On install, some people say the clip holding the hose to the frame bracket or axle brackets can be loose, but all you need to do is re-bend the clip a little to add pressure.

The hoses are from Goodridge:

When is this project beginning? That's my plan A few years down the road.

 

ditto, or when I blow up my rear again.... dual cases, 1.5 ton front and rear

 

Wheelers fronts are same length as oem that's why I didn't use them. Only advantage to the wheelers over oem is they are braided

 

yeah, I mainly got them for the better response when heated. Even cold the SS on the front are noticed.

 

Yea at some point I'll be adding them but with my king et and total chaos ucas at full droop I still have slack in the factory lines so didn't want to bother with swapping them out just yet. Figure I'll do it when it's time for a fluid flush
