All the wood got moved from the back of my yard to under my parents back deck yesturday.

Those new 5160's put in a little work, took 2 full trips to get it all.



I made a little log skidder

 

Best way to actually fit a tire though. Cycle the suspension without a spring or shock. Then cut out what ever is needed.

I’ll leave this picture with the link. Lots of work in this thread. https://www.*********************.com/index.php?threads/hanks-brand-new-broken-junk.35/
fitting 39’s on a long travel ifs setup.

 

Thanks for the compliment @Saturnine

It’s mini and mighty and does everything I ask of it. Lots of OEM and aftermarket support to keep it going and simple to work on with minimal electronics.

 

That log skidder works!

Your trucks not squatting much with that load and that’s a good size load. It actually looks quite level!

 

i went into the store. They offered me a pro rated amount back. not a replacement.

 

Yep figured they still did that, which is bullshit. Not that I have needed many batteries in my lifetime, but when I do, I go to Costco.

 

That's the minimum to be fair.

Did you verify they had a replacement battery of the same model in the store? The CT website shows stock level in each store.

 

what's the current verdict on the best LCA cam bolts to replace stock and hold alignment? are people happy with the Bison cam stop kit?

I like the poly performance taco tabs (i think @tacoma16 has?) but not currently available for 3rd gen.

 

Keep what you have stock. Just replace the bolts with greeasable ones.
I installed the bison kit. Sloppy and don't recommend it. But I might of got a bad batch or something. I only replaced them because my one of my stock ones moved.

 

my 2nd gen didnt hold alignment well with the stock bolts.

i should add that i have a TC cam tab gusset kit. could use it or go for the marlin one.

 

My OEM cam bolts also have about 1/16" slop at the "happy" max-caster positions. The problem is when you hit a rock off-road, the OEM round cam rotates, and that throws out alignment a lot more than 1/16".

If you use the Bison kit, why don't you put a weld bead on the inside of the cam tabs to take up the slop?

 

If it happens again I will tack weld then cams.
But so far all is good.

 

What a cute picture of that sleeping deer!

 

He's even waving at you in his sleep!

 

Dose anyone have one of these at home. I have the female air couplers that came from this machine and need to find out which male couplers will fit. the gold colored pieces

 

Oh my gosh I have the exact same Unit and absolutely love it… I will go out to the shop and see if I can figure it out for you

 

much appricated I dont have the machine just the air couplers.
thank you.

 

I hope this helps

 

that dose help a lot. thank you.
now i can match up that with what's on the net.
I have a compressor at home and the fitting will not go into it

thanks again.
