"Wheeler's Anonymous"

Hmmm oriellys i was at had no 27f but did have 34 and the 24r. Im no electrician but whats the difference? If CA are high it should be ok? I do have the tow package wiyh alt and trans cooler so this is....important lol.

 

Any recommendations on floor jack and jack stands. Something that will work with max 3" lift.

 

Harbor Freight my friend. I've got the 3 ton jack and 6 ton stands. Depending where you're jacking you might need to add a piece of 4x4 but it works just fine. I know that's what @icetreye uses as well

 

How did this one die and the Long Beach get revived?

 

Its the greater Los Angeles area. We move around a lot!?

 

Going on a wheeling and camping trip in Big Bear this weekend, anyone wanna tag along? Trails wont be that hard

This is what happens when you combine girlfriend mod with the housing mod.

 

Then there is the child DLC. Free at first but has mandatory in game purchases.

Be careful with this DLC as it can be installed multiple times.

 

It probably will but I can't say for sure. I've barrowed and tried a handfull of strut compressors from shops adjacent to mine.

Not sure of the brand but this style has worked best for me since the bottom strut holder is adjustable




I have also used this style with some success



This style has not worked for me. I know you can change the jaws but I haven't found one that fits the 2.5 coils




The two that worked well both had fairly small hooks to grab the coils which will work in your favor. The one you posted looks to have the same style hooks. The only part I'm not sure of is the fixed diameter base. I've adjusted the adjustable lower clamps a few different ways depending on the shock brand and the purpose I was using the tool for. I orient the shock different if I'm just adjusting the c/o's vs if I'm swapping out the coils.

 

It'll really depend on the size of the hook on the bottom. I at the minimum would want an adjustable lower hook so it could be adjusted to hold the c/o as best as possible. Their is a lot of kinetic energy when swapping springs. I saw a mechanic next door to my shop split his forehead open requiring 28 stitches from not securing a strut in a spring compressor properly. With that said I'd imagine you can make it work. But without having it in front of me to look at it's impossible to say for sure

 

@I5runner Here is a thread of mostly 4x4.

 

I see I'm not welcomed at the 2wd section huh. Haha jk sweet thanks man.

 

If you go to the first post you will see my name in blue. I bought a 2wd and should have bought 4wd (20/20 hindight thing) so I live with my choices. Mine is a DD and my business.cant afford to wreck it but love to play in the dirt and camp/fish.

 

Nothing wrong with 2wd, if I could do it again I would go 2wd and SAS but that's a whole nother story. I know a guy out here that convert 2wd to 4x4. Eventually I'll swap this crap LT for a solid axle.
