San Antonio

Have done a few already, need to decide on a couple more on what I'm gonna do as I am still deciding it. Watched a video on a small lift this morning, little more involved but nothing major.

 

What you got going on this morning Scott?

 

We're trying to hunt in this scary Scooby-Doo fog.

 

Damn.... not foggy here this morning. Its in the area but its up high so not an issue.

 

How about yourself?

 

About to go back to the barn and do some more wiring and then later today need to clean up the yard again. Leaves are all but gone now so now its just general clean up of the yard and then work on my shop on getting it organized....

 

Just keep it close to stock suspension if you plan on towing much, it will save ya on the pocket book.

 

Have only been looking at the 2-2.5" lifts, nothing too fancy this time around as for the time being it will stay parked in the barn for the most part.

 

I went into Beeville yesterday looking at storage buildings etc, still waiting on a final contract from negotiations, verbal was good, but not in ink yet on the new house. This move is gonna rock my world, and those Saturdays I have.

 

Yeah, no doubt i would have picked one up. Its unfortunate that they rub on the doors when opening.

 

Ya your about to get crazy busy....can't believe your making the move to another house just to built another and move again....

I get it though, once all it is done you will have a great setup. How long before the youngest is done with HS?

 

Ya but I have one local... you place a noodle up there when you open it so it does not rub.

 

Well if the home sale goes well, I would like to get a super duty, so I could have a set of coils, wheels (5), overload leafs, bags, rci skids available.... time frame could be around March/April

 

Need pics.... and already ordered the RCI engine skid as the transmission and transfer one does not fit my rig as there is differences.

How many miles does your shocks have on them? 18" wheels?

 

Scooby Doo visits San Antonio!
Edit: Not the clip I was hoping for. No back flips in this one

If my northern accent gives me away, I'm just a visitor from MN

 

Morning Mark

Morning Ozzy

Morning Scott

Morning Kevin

Morning, uh.... Eric, right?

Good Morning SA! Still trying to track down that rattle that is preventing me from enjoying my new ride. I know all the shock bolts are good and tight, and that adapter on top is solid. Checked the wheels; no, didn't screw that up. Was almost home from the errand, and SPARE TIRE! Yep, it was not all the way up, BUT, didn't eliminate it. Took the shackles off the back. Will go around the block. Load up the Decked too. I'll find it.....

When I get the bottom bushings I asked for from Down South, I will also put insulators on that adapter stem. Because. More trials and putz today.

Have a great day everyone!

 

Good morning everyone. @Oldie2007 have you checked the swaybar mount?

 

Morning Linwood. Despite the hearing aids, it's definitly from the bed/back!

As paranoid as I was after the bearings, everything got reviewed up there before the wheels went back on. Front end is wonderful. No noise, feels nice and smooth.

 

Wife needs 5 or 6 more years for her teacher pension, she is 3 years younger than I, the youngest boy is a sophomore now, min 2.5 years.

Well there's that saying, dont have all your eggs in one basket(current house). It will always be easier to sell a smaller house than the house I live in now, take advantage of the current market, and cash out and it puts enough money to build free and clear here at the farm and then some, or pay cash for the new house and and money in da bank.

Just installed the Ranchos, the Icons need rebuild, they have 39k on them, yes 18" wheels
