209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

I'd be down on the 26th***. I can change out fluids and do some preventative shit

***as of now lol

 

I can’t commit to a date but would definitely be down to help out if I can.

 

I am painting my sliders right now
Good day for it as I’ll take 86 degrees over 102 any day.

 

I'm down
I'm assuming 1st gen since only 1 rear brake line

 

what bushings are you using in the A arms?

 

Yep... he just bought it. Pretty much my truck only 4x4 and gray.

 

They're SPC... bushings already in them.

 

If theres another mod day, I am going to order my suspension setup soon then. Going to need help with extending brake lines and bleeding etc...

 

Ok... so @TacoJohn4x4 is off Wed-Friday.
I'm thinking I'll schedule an early day at work to get started around 1:00. I'm pretty sure I can have most of the front done before anyone else starts getting off work. The leafs are simple because we wont have to disassemble... but he's got a diff drop. I don't know how to do that. I'm sure I can figure it out, but don't want this thing to go super late.

Is there a Wed-Fri evening that works for others, where they can chip in a couple hours to help wrap it up?

 

Sounds like @roguegs might be down for a full Mod day on 8/26... I'm totally down for that. I think we could do your lift then, if that'll work for you.

@TacoJohn4x4 is going to need to do his lift during the week some time.

 

Ive been debating going with longer brake lines. But am for some reason sketch on bleeding my brakes. Bad experiences with midas and les schwab i guess.

Anywho, was probably going to use OME's shocks which means i wont need the longer lines.

I work the 25th, so depending on my chores (aka the girl) i may be able to show up this time

 

Do you guys think I can run 700lb coils for sometime while I wait for the bumper to come in (September)? Dont want to be topping out and messing with the CV angles.

 

@FirstTimeFirstGen or @foxrcing07 would know the answer to this question.

 

2 or 4wd?

 

4wd dclb 2018 or

 

@meatusmc and @Justintheegreat

I didn't forget about you on the 209 TACOS decals. I only have 1 black one right now. I'm ordering more tomorrow.

I'm getting more white and more black... anyone have a suggestion for any other color(s).

 

You’ve got a decent amount of weight how long until the bumper

oh duh CVs

 

I have 110lb sliders as well. C4 Fab told me first week of Sept.

Waiting on a sale on skids before getting one.

 

That weekend would be ideal so that we can all go out the following weekend for Labor Day lol

 

So maybe a month or so without the bumper?
