"Wheeler's Anonymous"

Yea but “certain” apps made it very convenient and appealing to the masses

 

Forums are the best thing ever. Only way how I learned to build my pile.

 

Peer pressure and provide the info on how to do stuff without paying someone.

 

I can’t look someone in the eye and say could you weld this to my truck that looks like it is falling apart

 

Finally pulled the trigger on a new set of Dakar leaf springs, was this close to doing the same with a NWTi weld-together plate bumper but then I remembered the checks I just mailed out yesterday for my taxes and figured it better to wait awhile.

 

Might want to look into some greasable bushings.. noisy fuckers

 

Yeah that's what I've heard...I got the non-greasable bushings for now but if it becomes a big enough issue I'll upgrade. My 3 leaf AALs were squeaky at times too but it came and went.

 

I guess it just threw me off cause the deavers were dead quiet. Hahah we added the extra leaf to this pack too, and now I just have to turn the music up so I don't drive myself crazy

 

My deavers are quiet

 

Haha I almost wish I hadn't sold them... hindsight is 20/20

Oh yeah, hahaha

 

I like mine! And like them even better because deaver is local (SoCal) so didn’t have to pay shipping. Plus Jeff at deaver is a great guy to work with and their customer service is amazing. They can freshen up a leaf pack or add a leaf or change ride height of them etc in 1/2 a day!

 

well fuck I didn't know that...now I'm wishing I had looked into those lol.

Oh well, the Dakars were a good deal at < $400 and don't require any custom fitment or relocation of the spring hangars like the Trail Gear and Wheeler's packs did

 

Quit making me regret my decision Hahahaha I can't bare to buy a whole new deaver pack at like $700 lol

 

Fuck Deaver.

 

Now I'm curious

 

Bought one of their expo packs that was supposed to hold 700-1000lbs at 3" over stock height. It was holding less than 600lbs at 2.5". They then blew me off 2 times when I was trying to get help about why they weren't holding the weight they told me. I ended up hacking up Dakar packs and swapped out most of the leaves with modified Dakar leaves out of frustration.

Most people are happy with Deaver, I am not one of them.

 

Chan said he has had issues with his deavers not holding up to weight also. I've been very happy with my Dakars and so far I haven't had any issues with squeaking (I'm sure I just jinxed myself here ). Although I'm sure none of you will give a shit since I drive a 3rd gen...

 

Yeah fuck that. I'd be pissed too

 

Yessir, the "Stage 3"....or whatever.
