Cap City Build & BS AF

Man I'm young

 

I put on my rear bumper with help of a 10yr old kid, so mostly alone. And, not a fat joke, but I'm skinnier than you sir.
Yes, I too, need to install the fuse panel myself.
And wire up a bunch o shit to it.

Bought some cheap plastic saw horses from Harbor Freight to support the bumper while I sanded, primed, and sprayed the bumper. I know you have issues with your arm, but that bumper can't be much more than 100 lbs, mine is 114 exact I think. Two people can huck that m'fer with ease. Ask a neighbor for 5 seconds of their day.

 

What makes you think a Brute Force Fab bumper is lighter than a Fab Fours?

Just curious....

I will need some help for sure

Luckily, that wont be an issue.

Just need to get going lol

What's crackin Scott? Finish any AR's yet?

 

120 on mine. Removed way more than that. Factory receiver and bumper was freekin' HEAVY.

With winch, aluminum winch bumper, full aluminum skids, AllPro sliders, rear bumper and HiLift jack installed, truck is 282 lbs heavier than before, weight distributed pretty much evenly. Suspension dropped 1/8" in front, now sits at exact same ride height as before in rear.

End result is, it RIDES much better. The little bit of weight added helped instead of hurting.

 

I'm 23

 

Nice!!!

My 2016 TRD OR coils up front are pretty damn stiff.

Hoping the addition of a low profile winch bumper may help soften up the ride

Wife says 'Your truck rides like shit'

My answer is always 'that can be fixed'

Still breast feeding I presume?

Just playing man, I'm still in my twenties also!

 

I'm 51, when are you supposed to stop breast feeding?

 

Woot! Not the youngest!

 

Usually ~ 15 IMHO

 

OR coils are stiff and get stiffer as they go through travel (progressive rate springs) I like the ride from 885's with a touch of added weight. 887's are same rate as 885's, just 5mm longer. I'm hoping the ride stays the same. It's actually at a point where I like it now.

 

You're supposed to stop? Why?

 

I think what I'm going to do is get 884s with 5100s set at zero and call the suspension 'done' for a while.

Any idea how much those would run assembled?
