AZ BS Thread 4²0

WTF is this? Meetups that aren't being posted on here!?!

 

"I don’t want to belong to any club that will accept me as a member."

 

Non mod day/ mod day......

 

No I put the nut on and honked down on it to see if it would suck up and the thread was still well short of even being close to flush with the top of the nut. To me it's like why spec 8.8 fasteners and then not install them to spec.

And the pic doesn't do the driveshaft clearance justice. It was close enough that I could not get my fingertip in the gap. We're talking paper thin, 1/8" MAX. I know that shaft shouldn't move much/at all in relation to the frame, but it was too damn close, to the point I was very much worried you'd hear magical self-clearance noises on a trail. The diff is mounted to the frame with bushings after all, there is SOME flex.

 

Yes! Was such a good day with the homies yesterday working on shit and Bullshitting. Miss those times for sure and look forward to more! We're coming down to see you next!

 

Lol Once the word got out who was gonna be where we all just started showing up.

 

Really appreciated everyone that came by to hang!

 

I’m in for a Tucson one

 

Sounds like quite the party

 

I'll have to get something planned! Used to have some killer mod days a few years back

 

That really sucks. I would talk to them and see if there’s any sort of resolution.

 

I dunno, I mean the design is the design. some of those carriage bolts being longer might be nice, and that's an easy fix, but the clearance to the driveshaft and stuff is kind of "it is what it is."

I'm not gonna dog them on social media or make a fuss about it, but it just kinda sucks.

 

It’s still worth talking to them about it in my opinion. They’re a huge company, don’t just eat shit on the deal. They might tell you they messed up your order somehow, they might put your mind at ease, they might do something else, who knows.

 

I tend to agree with @EatSleepTacos here. Either 10s of thousands of people are running it this way without enough blowback to hear about it, or you got a bunk one. I’d send them pics of your concerns and ask for feedback. If it’s normal you should feel confident selling it closer to MSRP (or finding a hardware store fix), or if it’s fucked hopefully they will make it right with you! Don’t worry about hurting their feelings, it’s just business and your concerns are valid. Either way you shouldn’t be eating that much shit on this deal. Although I do get wanting to just wash your hands and be done with it… Good luck whatever you decide to do!

 

I got a Liberty safe from there about 5 years ago. It's pretty basic but works great and I like it - except for the fact that Liberty rolled over on everyone and handed out the master codes.

 

Was awesome seeing you! Been way to long. We need to get down to your place and help you get your shit finished and back on the road.

 

hahaha we knew this was going to be brought up. People just kinda started showing up. Thanks to @Yacob_D for hosting a bunch of degenerates!

 

I found out @KingOfTheNorth was going to be down the street @Yacob_D house and kinda invited myself and a bunch of other people over to watch those two work

 

It was good to finally meet ya as well! Took me a minute to recognize the name and IG account! lol Glad it all worked out and good times were had

 

Shit maybe the next one will be for the Tcase skid install! Its on the bench and just needs to be test fit, welded and bolted on!
