Ontario BS Thread

If you're talking about the Cambridge plant (don't quote me ive been drinking, and dont want to text them to confirm) lexus that's being run through right now, source: 3 people from my regiment work there full time lol. They get bonuses if they spot defects or problems in production (not small bonuses but like 800-3k in monies)

 

I agree, the front I wouldn't mind Fox. It would make it all pretty under there with my TotalChaos UCA's. I need to research this since I think I'm going to need to beef things up.
soon. The weight of the armour and bumper is giving the front end a work out right now.

 

They're not rebuildable unless you're referring to the BP 51.
Which I would image are around the same as the fox, Kings and icons

 

Well factory fox won't do any better they only come with 600lbs springs. I'll be upgrading to 700lbs when I do my bumper

 

I think you mentioned that before but I wasn't about to look through 40 pages of OM&G pages ahah

 

Rebuilds are only for remote reservoir shocks.

 

ya I haven't personally heard of any limits, but id be interested to know what they are with the OME, or when they fail at

 

it would depend on wear and abuse.

Once you start having shock fade its time to go.
For what its worth Fox have three different service intervals
off road only every 1600km
50/50 every 32 000km (this is referring to desert racing though not slow wheeling type)
and all on road 80 000km.

I don't plan on doing it the 50/50 because they should be fine given I dont do fast off road and they won't get stressed.
If I start noticing shock fade before the 80 000km I'll service them but I don't think I will.

If you stressed a normal shock the way anything remote reservoir is designed to be used it would be destroyed in minutes.
remote reservoir can handle it because it has a shit load more oil and nitrogen and is stored externally so it cools better, and obviously the valving inside is different with some using dual bypass or triple bypass valving. But if you don't have the valving and tuning set up properly for your conditions you can burn out a RR just as fast.

 

So the shocks I picked up are beyond repair. Getting my money back.
On the bright side I got this banged out.
Otis safe door circa 1960 with Yale lock. Solid 4x4 weathered oak legs lag bolted. ~275lbs

 

Oh yeah...compustar remote start/alarm with t11 remote also got installed today.

 

what was wrong with the shocks?

You'd be surprised how much you could actually repair lol. It just becomes the point of is it worth it.

 

Where do you get all that hipster stuff? That good looking cart and now this, I like it.

 

I hooked up with this guy that does demo of historic houses in Windsor. I pay him a premium for first pick before they smash shit.

 

Bent shaft and wallowed out lower mount. I spoke to ski and he said it's not worth the trouble.

 

ah ya in that case not worth it lol.

It is technically repairable but the cost would be so much not worth it.

 

Well this was an interesting watch, learned lots in regards to our trucks ignition and stuff that I had no idea about, as I am a noob to all this.



Sits for 2+ years and started like it was running already that day lol

 

Who wore the 285s better?

 

They look more aggresive on your rig, might be cuz of the front bumper just showing them off more.

I honestly do not mind the look of the front of the ZR2, not sure why everyone hates on it so much.

 

What springs are you getting? Would I be able to swap out any spring?

That is very cool.

I'm going with @Ttaco15
