San Diego BS Thread.

Like crazy! So many colors. But I think the flowers brought everyone out there. On my way out there was a backup all the way from visitor center to the mountains heading in

 

The other issue the flower fields are having is people have ZERO respect now days and are just walking all over them and laying out blankets all over and crushing them.

 

I saw plenty of that

 

I was out there today leading another Tundra and a 4Runner. Borrego Springs and all the popular bloom spots around it were PACKED. They even closed off the road that goes West toward Henderson/Palm.

 

Anyone know of anybody looking to get rid of some camburg spindles for a 2012?

 

Anyone have connections to get discounts on Nittos or BFGs? I'm due for new tires and I want to go to 39s or 40s (on my Tundra).

I used this 2 years ago when I got my tires. They might have the ones you are looking for in your size. If you buy it in 2's you get 200 off.

 

Discount tire direct is running $100 off $450 or more on their eBay tire purchases. You can probably save $200 going that route.

Edit - slow refresh on my browser, sorry to post what has already been shared.

 

You can buy complete LCAs with bushings on Ebay for pretty cheap I believe. May want to look into that as an option..

 

I have a set in my cart at AM Autoparts - 10-year warranty and $188, but trying to save some $$ by buying a used pair as I already have the bushings.

 

Those bushings can be stubborn as hell. Be forewarned, lol.

 

was someone here selling some all pro leafs a couple weeks ago? Turns out with my current leaf pack and shackle flip I have to drill a few more holes to get the degree I want or just get the expos or deavers. If its still available please pm me!

 

I've heard! I've read the threads, here, and on the FJ and 4Runner forums. I have a 20-ton press and I'm familiar with both the Redneck and bottle jack procedures. Plus, I have a 10-ton hydraulic gear puller on order that might help out. I tried replacing them a couple weekends ago but was not expecting seized cams. Passenger front cams seized; they rusted to the bushing inner sleeve. Might have to do some hack sawing on my next attempt.

 

Boom! Thanks again @jeffz0rz for doing a killer job on my frame!

There is a little write up on my build explaining what all he did!

 

Side note:

Anyone in chula or SD with an extra set of rear shocks?

My icons are leaking and dont have a second car to drill while the rear is shockless

???

 

I got nothing. :/ but if you need a ride somewhere im free after 2 lol

 

hahah thanks man! Ill keep that in mind!

 

If you can get to down south motorsports they had the Icon rebuild kits in stock last time I needed a set. Then ran the shocks to ORW and they rebuilt them in a day. Less down time.

 

You can drive without shocks amigo, your leaf springs are your suspension the shocks just dampen the pogo stick factor.

 

its safe enough to do that?! I figured it would be crazy without them
