Deeezy's Locked Sport Grocery Getter Build

Yeah, it's a lot of moisture. I didn't know humidity had that much effect on the compressors. Mine's just for tires, yours must really need a separator.

 

Ahem...part numbers please...

 

Looks like this one: https://www.amazon.com/XtremepowerU...r=8-5&keywords=air+compressor+water+separator

Or this one:

Thanks Dana . Did you source the connectors locally?

 

Yes, I had some leftover quick connect fittings from a Craftsman air hose/fittings kit. Was like $18 or something and comes with several different fittings and qty's of each.

 

@deeezy are you still running all pro standard leaf springs in the back? I ordered a snug top camper an I'm wondering how well the standards are holding up. I don't have a bumper or swing out in the rear an I won't be hauling heavy loads except for the weekend BBQ stuff.. Since all pro has free shipping to Hawaii I'm thinking of taking advantage of that but can't decide between standards or expos..

 

I am not currently running the standards but they were really good. It held up all of my stuff at about 2", maybe a little more than 2" lift over stock. I changed over to the Expos because of a 100lb spare tire, heavy hilift jack, Leer 100xq, and heavy bumper w/swingout. The Expos probably will too much for your truck, like lifted over 3". I also have my battery and co2 tank in the bed and a steel shackle hangar cross brace.
The ride will be better with the Standard pack on your truck too.
But to answer your question, the standards held up fine on my truck for how heavy it was.

I don't think with just the snugtop, you'll need the expos.

 

Right on!!!! Thanks for the advice!!! Btw love your build!! Your truck is solid! I swear I end up on this thread at least once a week! LoL

 

Thanks man! I appreciate it.

 

If I recall, @bullaculla has the Allpro standards on his truck. Bullaculla, how has the leaf pack been?

 

Been awesome sitting in my patio

 

Lol, I didn't know that.

 

@bullaculla I can free up that space on the patio if they are for sale? LoL

 

Kevin,

How much lift were you looking to achieve? When I had the standards with just my Leer, it was like having a 3-leaf add a leaf with the overload leaf left in. Little over 2". If you want more lift than that then go with the Expos.

 

@deeezy thats exactly what I have now. Icon 3 leaf AAL with overloads in an I have the icon rear resi shocks

 

I received my ADS coilovers yesterday and immediately went to work. Everything went smoothly. I had to cut and notch the resi bracket to fit over the Relentless frame brace. I also changed out the outer tierod ends while I was in there.
These came with 700lb coils and were custom valved by ADS to the specs/weight of the truck, style of wheeling that I do, and requests to them on what I am looking for.
I took it for a test ride and bombed some speed bumps at the mall. The ride is very nice, small bumps are less noticable and there is no harsh "topping out" when flying over big speed bumps, it just eats it up.
I will play with the compression adjusters this weekend and report back.
I am very happy with them so far.

 

I adjusted preload on the ADS coilovers today and it isn't bad doing it while installed on the truck. The nice ADS spanner wrench can't really be used because the handle portion is too thick for the "pin" to be fully inserted into the hole in the collar because it contacts the spring. I found that my drift punch set works really good and the 5/16" fits perfectly.

 

And, the water separator for my portable air compressor is still working good:

 

Took the truck to get an alignment and to see if I bent anything on the last trip. My steering wheel was clocked to the left and I immediatley thought something was bent. Well, alignment went good and nothing is wrong. Good enough for me:

 

island brake and alignment?
