209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

Didn’t see you bro. I came up mchenery and went to Cruisers then flipped a U turn on Kiernan to head towards Salida.

 

Are Fox and Kings on par with each other?

My buddy has Icons and loves them, how do they perform comparively?

TC uppers look pretty nice, I think my next set tires will be 33’s. Would it look dumb to lift it and get tires later? I drive like 40k a year so it won’t be too long

 

Have you seen this thread?

Guys are fitting skinny 33s on stock suspension.

 

Not at all. Are you planning on running 285 or 255 width for your 33’s? I believe John and Morgan both run 255’s. Like @nDub said, the skinny’s require less hassle. I’m all for a cab mount chop so I’m going 285/70/17 when my 265/70/17 are all done. Lifting and waiting for the 33’s gives me time to get my fab work done, hopefully.

 

Bald Mountain today

 

I had icons on this morning they drove nice, they needed heavier springs for the weight I had up front, but I liked them

 

Fox and kings are a linear type shock icons are a digresive type shock.

I’ve never had icons. I’ve had fox and now I have a combo of fox and kings. 2.5 fox in the front and once they are mounted 2” kings in the rear.

 

Anyone have a no loss chuck and/or a nitrogen regulator that would let me borrow? I can leave a healthy $ deposit. Mine walked off at some point, I just ordered the parts to build another fill setup but they wont be here till 10/15. I have a friend's set of Kings I am rebuilding for him and he was hoping I could finish them this week. Worst case I can take them elsewhere for a fill, but I like to do an initial fill myself so I can make sure the pressures are correct and the seals completely seat. I have seen the shop over pressurize them before.

 

Yea I do

 

Why does this not suprise me? lol

 

So when the time comes that I have to rebuild my ADS.....

 

Anyone close to Manteca have a torque wrench that can handle the higher torque requirements of the axle nut on the CV? Need to borrow it when I change out my CV boots on my passenger side.

 

Yes

 

All i have is the cheap-o harbor freight one, you probably need more than 80ft-lbs?


Edit: Autozone borrow-a-tool?

 

Oh yea
This too
Blah blah blah long travel

 

Sheesh you accomplished that project really fast

 

I had to @CalTacoma09 “NEEDED” those UCAs lmao
Because someone else needed his

 

Ah come on now. Don’t go blaming me. There was much want by someone to get it all installed.




































Btw....

 

Anyone know where I can pick some firewood up at this week? I’m more than happy to pay for it. Enough for two nights camping.
