209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

Does TW have an "extremely defeated" emoji?

Ya... those about sum up the situation.


I especially identify with the microwave thing.

 

What happened? The photos looked like you got the relocated shocks installed.

 

The relocation is done. I need to put the truck back together. It's not the end of the world, but one of the fucking shocks (passenger in pic) is leaking from the reservoir.

But now the shock relocation is done, so I have no shocks for the truck.
Was going to drive my son's T4R and it wouldn't start this morning. Had to drop my wife off at work and drive hers today.
T-mobile is fucked today, making it more difficult to get in touch with Fox than it already normally is.
Now (I got in touch via email) they want me to send the shock back to them (took 4 weeks to get the shocks originally).

And I'm on week 5 waiting for my coilovers to get here.

 

Sorry to hear that you had problems when you are so close to being done. What a pain in the ass. When it rains it pours!!

 

No worries bro... it's par for the course for me.

Like right now... have shit I needed to do after work. Sitting here doing exactly ZERO mph on 99 South.

Left Lathrop at 3:30... I've made it to Ripon in 1.5 hours.

 

Apparently there’s a deceased individual in one of the lanes it looks like it stopped both directions

 

The microwave is my personal fav lol

 

You could send it to my buddy down here who rebuilds shocks. He can fix it in way less time, for less money, unless its under warranty then mo money lol

 

That sucks.

There were no abulances or fire on scene. Only 4 CalTrans trucks and CHP North bound.

 

It's under warranty. The shocks are brand new out of the box. I'm just worried how long it's going to take them.

 

Yeah they are pretty backed up. I have another friend who works there. He said everything is backlogged in almost all their departments. Where is it leaking on the reservoir? At the hose?

 

Not the hose... it's the oring of the top of the resi.

We're going to have a problem if this gets drawn out. I waited a month for the shocks, to get a leaking shock. I've got a trip planned, I can't wait another 4 weeks.

 

Anyone have any idea where a good place to find 3/4 to 1/2 reducer sleeves?

At this point I can use those to run my Bilsteins on the mounts I have.

 

Well thats shitty, the seal is easy to replace, but you’ll need to recharge it. Thats sucks man

 

Fastenal maybe?

 

I think I'm just going to ask them if they can send me the rebuild kit... if they are going to be backed up for a while.
