New England Mod & Meetup Thread:

I just finished a huge breakfast ... gonna need a nap before actual dinner this afternoon.

Darn it! A two nap day.

 

You’re supposed to eat a light breakfast for turkey day.

 

I had a cinnamon roll

 

I had a bagel

 

I will be there for about 8:15 to start setting up. 8:30 or 9 is fine.

 

Nah gotta make room for the big show!

 

Growing up in the household I did, we started at about 12 with antipasto and ate until 6. Then came the desserts.

 

I'm puertorican, we'd have appetizers to hold you over but the food would come out and you'd get some or you wouldn't, there were no leftovers so a decent breakfast early on made sure you weren't ravenous by dinner

 

Irish/Italian here. So much food for Thanksgiving and Christmas

 

maybe down the road

 

If you want 16s, this is definitely the way to go for shock mounting

 

Then where do you stop? 18s fit and aren’t wasted.

 

It wont be that much.... cause I want to build one.... and ill have a bed to build it off of

 

It all depends on what collapsed length you can fit with the amount of uptravel you want.

That guy with 18's has like 6" bumpstop extensions, he has a much higher ride height than I like.

 

Totally agree, tho I wouldn’t mind going up 2-3”

Still have plenty of preload In the front and longer springs are cheap.

 

We can see with my truck, sense I think I am up first. I am putting the shocks at a similar height to archive just so the flatbed deck doesnt need to be stupid high. I may even make the shock towers flush with the bed and tie them in to the bed and together.

 

Been reading thru this 63 thread alsohttps://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/chevy-63-swap.576375/

I like his flatbed

 

My wife wanted breakfast ... been a while since we've been together at breakfast time. I'm the breakfast cook. If Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy.

I'll survive.

 

Does he have center drawer? I wasn’t a huge fan of his for what I’m lookin to do but I see the appeal

 

This guy gets it!
