Northern Colorado

This company was good. Not sure if they go as far as FoCo, but worth checking:

I used Gerber Collision & Glass, which is all over the place up here. Got an online quote from their website, but the actual company that showed up (they did it in my driveway) and invoice was from a company called Glass America. Cost me $265 on my 2nd Gen Tacoma, and zero issues since installed in August.

 

That's a number I can get onboard with! Safelite has quoted me nearly $400. It's going on a 1st gen Tundra, but it isn't ~$145 more in glass.

 

I'm not sure if they do mobile, but Anders Glass in Windsor does a damn good job and a very reasonable cost. I'm wanting to say my 2nd gen windshield was around 175-200 2 years ago.

 

Appreciate it. I'm in Windsor/Severance and will definitely look into them.

 

They are at the Windsor exit on I25

 

For those of you who have done one or multiple suspension lifts to your truck, how important is moving to a bigger bump stop in the front? At this point, I have only gained about 2" (if I remember correctly) though I may crank them up a bit more depending on where the ass end sits fully loaded. I had my cab mounts chopped, but I have noticed a rub still going into a left hand turn/front wheel compression and was wondering if this may be why.

 

Not the solution, although there are performance benefits to be had out of nicer bumpstops.

Either try to get more caster out of your LCA cams, or get to cutting and hammering.

 

The only way to truly fit a tire is to cut/hammer for clearance at bump and lock. One thing that can help is what @Squeaky Penguin said about adjusting your rear lower control arm cams

 

Right on..thx. I should have known it's never the simple fix! ha

 

New to lifts here, what are the performance advantage's of other bump stops vs OEM. I have a 2.5/3 inch lift being installed in the near future. Would like to know if I need them or not? (New ones that is)

 

Just changes the severity of the impact when your suspension bottoms out

 

I did a CMC with my 2.5in lift with 285 tires and I still rub a little bit when the front end is at full stuff. Where is it rubbing?

 

To be honest, I need to do a little more research/observation. It's only happened on a left hand turn into one of those concrete "drainage dips" entering a parking lot and both times I immediately checked for evidence on the CMC areas and they don't look like they have been touched (still dirty). Basically I need to make the wife (or someone) watch while I pull some maneuvers.

 

I did the same thing for a few weeks. Its just enough rub to be an annoying. Did you also hammer back the pinch welds in the wheel wheel?

 

Yeah. Chopped & Hammered nicely by @YamaDirtrider after I did some decent chopping of plastic & fender liners myself in preparation. Like you said though, still becomes trial & error.

 

Asking for shop recommendations in/near Longmont. Wanting the following done:

Install JBA UCAs: Have parts, new in box
Install ECGS Bushing: Have part, tool & x-tra fluid
Raise Eibachs to second notch: Currently installed on lowest setting
Alignment
Spark Plugs: Have plugs

Work travel picked up overninght to pre-COVID levels and DIY time is scarce. Any input is appreciated.

 

Give these guys a call and see what they can do: https://www.knottsautotech.com/

For alignments, call Les Schwab Tires in Longmont. They were pretty cool about letting me specify certain alignment specs (caster) when I brought my truck to them.

 

I can also recommend Stonum Automotive in Longmont as far as a good shop for alignment after suspension lift.
