well, more tuning in the rear, its better but not there yet. Moderate Whoops, new rear diff after I broke it last year.

Just noticed that both of our last sets of tires have been the same size , 285/75 and 35 x 11.5 - 17s. My 4banger loved them

 

Anyone have an extra wheel bearing/hub dust cap for a 2nd gen laying around that they're willing to part with?

 

I found the part # for that cap - see post #20.

Anyone out at the Costa Mesa overland expo? Might head out there with a few people shortly…

 

Thanks!

 

I’m here. Currently over at the star link class

 

Just seen this. Been walking around for the last few hours

 

Do any of the classes? Found a couple interesting
Lots of cool rigs too

 

I seen it going on, I didn’t do them though.

 

I wanted to go to the Expo but had to work instead, sometimes adulting gets in the way of fun stuff, haha.

How was it!?

 

You should mount a GoPro under the truck where you can see the shock shaft for tuning, that's how I do it so you can see what its doing or not doing a little better and adjust, retry and watch again. And I always find a place where I can run the same terrain over and over again so I can get it dialed. I pick the terrain that I drive in most since it's hard to dial it for everything. Looks like fun!

 

Did you keep your stock location bump stop setup in front or upgrade?

 

I do, I use 5 action cameras 2 outside and 3 underside, front suspension and rear suspension.
My issue is I have moved a lot of front weigh to the rear and the leafs are not holding it well and im having a fair bit of squat and taking a lot of my bump zone, I am using the deaver H77HD and it seems a number of others have gone to deaver for an additional leaf, may need to do the same or move some of the weight to the front of the bed and take it off the back of the bed.

The other is I may need to bump up from 2.5 to a 3.0 bypass. After my last tuning session I noticed the shock bodies were hot, like I could barely touch the bodies. So bigger body for more oil and better control plus finned resi may be in my future.

 

yes they modified the stock frame horn for the oem rubber bump and installed a king compact.

 

Does anyone in the area have the ecgs clamshell tool I could borrow for a week? I'm installing my lift kit next Sunday and I'm going to do it as a preventative thing.

I'm in the mission valley area, but I can meet somewhere
