Your list is cooler dude!

 

Bring that frame down to San Diego and he might make a deal with you...

 

Last night, I saw a 70cc Honda 3 wheeler sell on Blue Collar Auction for a bit over $2900. It was completely rebuilt. During the intro he said he hoped to get at least $3000, and I thought, we''ll we can hope a cure for cancer too, but...

Do I need to read the dog crate thread

 

OP never posted pics of said dogs

OP never said what kind of dogs

OP is thin-skinned and said alright, peace out

 

Finally my rear kings are out for delivery

 

You gave them the wrong address

I got no notification of a scheduled delivery

 

We'd have to do a floor delete on your rig I think to make it work. I mean I'm up for it but you gotta come here for that service

 

I'm pretty good with both the plasma cutter and oxyfuel torch, but yeah I'll keep my rear floor

How long of a stroke?

 

12"

 

Ahh that's what the 4R is getting, but for the shock relocation that is.

 

Can you keep your tires if you put em in the wheel wells. Most of the kits I've seen for tacos and runners that use the wheel well unfortunately contact leafs, frame, and tires. Not saying you can't clearance all that but making a runner wider is hard cause the rear quarters don't come off like a taco

 

33's seem to be the limit of what I've seen on rear shock relocations; depending on the tire width and shock (2.5 or larger), most just run spacers.

But if I ran 2.0s, I shouldn't have to worry about spacers with my skinnies.

As for the body/limited panels, I'll trim them worst case in the event that I did have to run spacers.

 

Ah yeah, so my pet peeve is major poke. I don't want to be too far out of my body panels, for the LT it's not a big deal but right now with normal body panels on I can't run outside the frame without spacers and if I did have spacers I still couldn't fit 315 wide tires.

Also these arrived

 

Niiice

2.0s with adjuster?

I'm looking at 2.0s with reservoir but no adjuster.

I get what you mean though, I too hate the stupid Jeep/3rd Gen Taco wheel poke where they buy the wrong wheels to make their shit stick out 10 feet.

I plan on staying with skinnies from here on out; they're as wide as I need them to be and they come in E load which is a plus for me.

Let me ask, since I know you like to do things right, are you going to get your LC weighed to figure out rear weight?

I'm assuming you'll get the right shims to get them valved to your liking?

 

Yeah they're 2.0 x 12" with adjusters and extended resis. I did want 2.5" and maybe one day I'll change over to those but the price was right here and the availability can't be argued with either. They don't even need a rebuild yet. I had the 2.5 x 10" Kings with resis on my last truck and loved em, but they would have been to short for the new setup and availability of 12" kings with resis was 8.5mo out right now. The compression adjusters are just icing on the cake, I don't really need them I have the valving numbers from the last truck still. But it could be nice to have em set fully firm for the setup I'm going to use right now.

These aren't going on the LC but I will weigh the taco when I do a corner balance and revalve, but I have to drive it first to get a feel for what it's missing and what it needs.

 

I’ve already told him I’ll bring it down to San Diego, lol.

 

One of my amber lights doesn’t work

so that’s fun

 

That’s no fun.
