New England Mod & Meetup Thread: May 17 at Jared’s!!

For toys for tots? I most likely will be there to set up around 8am but 9am is usually the time we start since that is the time that Runnings opens.

 

Just figuring out what time I need to leave the house.

 

I have a feeling I won’t have anymore alignment issues

 

I use a pipe wrench… works first try every time.
But yeah, it doesn’t look that bad at all. Certainly worth a try.

Beefy

I’m pulling my taco tabs in favor of those. They fit better in the cam tab opening

 

Until you bend the tab, definitely wouldn't know anything about that though

 

I had to straighten all the tabs.. they were bad. Basically if I have a bad alignment it’s either spc slipping, bent tie rod, or bent frame

 

Yep they fit great. After paint probably .030” of movement. Impressive for plasmacut parts

 

Super late to this. I'm glad you were able to put it to use. I triple checked that I had all the parts, but I was praying I didn't miss some stupid little things

 

Don't worry, it was all there, but I somehow dropped one of the gaskets while installing it. Ended up with a leak and a CEL, then went to get an OEM gasket, which also didn't seal it up right, so I ended up sealing the flange with some high temp JB Weld...

 

All done and aligned decently

 

Lol your hydrolic fittings look a little better than mine on those foxs

 

A couple hefty coats of this a year does the trick. Boeshield t9

Yeah I did, until I didn't. Then it just became a losing battle when the pitting settled in lol. What typically happens is I wash my truck in February and give a deep cleaning and forget to reapply.

 

@crashngiggles

 

Lol.....not anymore since i have that wall....I mean "Hand truck" mounted one ....lol

 

Stuck pulling a generator all day, think there was some blow by
What you can’t see in the dark is worse, this was the pic for my boss to retire the thing.

Now fixing up an old one to take its place. Till then we are one truck down.

 

Morning

 

It's a morning...

 

Mine had a hell of a commute. Saw a bobcat… no deer. They must know it’s hunting season.

 

Hahaha, yeah they do... they been hanging out in my yard, and since the water is so low, bouncing between me, and my neighbor across the way....
