Says the guy who isn't on stock wheels

 

I don't think the stock ones look bad at all, just don't care for the bland grey color...they look good in black to me or a deeper gunmetal grey

The PO didn't do a whole lot to my truck but he did put decent looking wheels on it so I'll give him that

 

I have the same wheels on both trucks

15’s cause size doesn’t matter

 

Mr Buddyheater is the best. Picked this one up a few months ago. Perfect for those early morning chilly fishing outings. Yep, I get cold. lol

all good. you're truck looks great with those wheels and alignment is squared away so its a non-issue.

 

I still need to fix my rear axle, the numbers back there are really bad and explains the pull I still get to the right even though the front numbers are perfect. It's slightly skewed to where the driver tire is about a 1/4" inch more forward than the passenger, only thing I can think of is maybe I tightened down the u-bolts with the axle not 100% centered in the pins...IDK. Gonna have to loosen the u-bolts and try to re-situate it

 

@Sperrunner go grab these for him - you're probably out that way all the time(?). Throw $100 at the seller and he'll have a nice set of wheels to match don's tires for his overlander.

 

Bent spring

 

Sheared puns do this too.

 

Could be...these Expos I bought off someone on the forum a little over a year ago are starting to make me suspicious. I barely get 2.5" rear lift out of them without my RTT on, the Expos are supposed to give close to 4" without weight over them. I bought them off a guy on here that had a couple sets of them in his garage he was getting rid of for a good deal. More reason to just get Alcans soon and be done with leaf spring worries for awhile

 

Puns are the worst

 

Dam phone.



PINS

 

I think my alcans are fucked after 3 years, awful wavy

 

I’ve had nothing but praise for my
Deavers. The old set was 9 years old when I replaced them. They were fine. Just .3” less lift than the new ones. And I had overloaded the duck out of them

 

I don’t think the blown shocks, no bump stops, and constant flexing is really helping

 

Well...



quit blowing your shocks

 

I have something to say to this, I just can’t make it sound straight

 

We are after all talking about suspension, so I'm sure others would be flexible to understand

 

Frame recall spray started today.
Oof
