AZ BS Thread 4²0

Changing my oil this weekend, realizing damn, I really am getting after this thing! I'm thinking the 1" lift should help a bit. At least I know I'm not a mall crawler!

 

While you have them waiting for an install you might as well buy a westcott kit for $400 and give yourself another 1.5 front and 1.25 rear.

 

I looked at those kits and they look pretty slick, but it won't work on my Fox shocks.

There was a TSB where "old" foxes have flat ground springs and "new" foxes have a different spring seat and springs that aren't flat ground at the end of their coil.

"old" foxes:


My "new" foxes:



I figure 1" front (from the OEM Foxes) and 1" rear (from the Eibach springs) is good enough for me, and it won't make my stock 32"s look goofy.

 

Sedona and Sheep’s Bridge. You’re going to all the spots I like.

This kit is for that design change.

 

Oh no shit I didn't find that! I guess I was too distracted by trying to find sliders... haha

 

Yah they had to break product listing years into a new product page for 21/22 versions because of I guess this change.

 

And yea there sliders are very very nice. I’ve been dicking around spending money on appearance stuff lately like getting rid of the interior chrome/silver, but eventually there dom/tig with filler plates will get ordered.

 

Camping trip on Apache Lake for the weekend was a good time. Algae bloom in full effect which killed our fish time. ATTACH=full]4960767[/ATTACH]

 

Im back safely but there is a dude stuck about a mile from the bridge in a 1st gen tundra with a broken left front lower ball joint. Trying to contact help for him right now. Anyone feel like making the trip? I have to go Show Low tomorrow so I cant go back. If I dont get in touch with his son (whose number he gave me) Ill contact AZ 4x4 Recovery or whatever that company is called.

 

Freaking Discount man. I need to get a 5th tire to have matching right. Nope, if you want any kind of Mickey Thompson 35x12.5 or 315/70 etc. 10-12week back order. WTF?
Ok. So let me swap to a tire and maybe a size you can get damn tires in. "We'll see what we can do" So, if I suddenly get a flat via a bolt or some shit, they cant even get me same size replacements.

 

Try Simple Tire…had good luck with them. You still need to get it mounted locally, but they always seem to have good stock.

 

Pretty sure that’s where I ended up buying mine from. Or their ebay account or whatever. After 2 months of backorder promises from discount getting broken I moved on

 

Hey y’all from kingman!

 

Heavy ranch water tonight before going back on the drilling rig for 150 something days straight

 

Damn 150+? yea, left the Marines no plans on doing "deployments" again. But ya know, $$$$ is always a motivator...

 

i did my 4.5 years lol, honestly working on a drill rig is the most fun I’ve ever had at work.
