DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Dakars have a much better ride with extra weight

 

Yes, but wouldn't use it on a daily driver. Let off gas on turns and you hear a loud bang when it engages which is normal

correct. Spend the extra and get 4x4 or an ARB of its a DD. Ox Lockers are badass but can't run them on Toyotas due to not having a removable diff cover. I'll probably end up running that on my JEEP. After a long list of other shit.

 

How much lift did you get with the full set w/o any weight in the back?

 

Haven't heard that about the truetracs. Auto lockers, yes.

 

Powertrax my bad

 

@49erfan i was just quoted 2150 for an ARB locker and ckas12 plus install for all of it, not from Tandem. Still havent heard from them.

 

Why not get an assembled third member from ECGS? 5 year 50k warranty install yourself is really easy and should be around 1500$

 

showing 1990 with a 400 refundable core charge, so yeah would be about 1500. looks like they are participating in the compressor promo also.. hmm

 

Super easy to do, I got to remove mine again because of the gasket but in out and cleaning it should be 2 hours

 

I wont be doing that!

 

Thats what I've read. Its the reason I was thinking of removing the 3rd leaf to reduce the spring rate by ~15% and lower it by 15mm(~.6") but since I have an RTT and Rack ordered it should help a bit. If I still find it rough after I may remove the 3rd leaf or the long overload.

I didnt get any measurements but it is supposed to be 2.75-3". It still has some rake so its probably around that.

 

Gilmer this Saturday for anyone that wants to join in.

 

Order into Headstrong!

 

Anyone need a 3 inch diameter fire extinguisher mount? One came with my h3r but i bought a scott drake qr mount to use instead.

 

I might be able to use it, can you take a picture?

 

oo that looks nice wonder if it would fit the one i have for the kitchen...

 

Anyone tried removing a TollTag from the center top of the window (above the rear view mirror)? Need to relocated/replace my tag because the riser bracket is effectively blocking the tag from being read and worried it's going to pull off that dot pattern on the glass that's up there.

 

Meh, it'll probably be fine. That said, mine's just to the passenger side of the bracket, below the dots. I can't see it, but toll reader can.

 

Guess I'll take it easy and see how it goes. Worked fine in it's currently location till I put the bracket in place, now it seems neither the tollroad or my office parking garage (for auto-entry without my stupid access card) now works.
