GORMAN RUN! SATURDAY 07/30/2011...

man I hope my cb comes in today... I ran the antenna cable into the cab... don't know how I let someone talk me into running it through the 3rd break light.... anyhow wish I would of had my cam. up so I could of showen everyone what a pain in the ass it was ... the only info I found about removing / replacing stated two screws and to use a chisel it never said anything about the two blots that run into the cab above the headliner ...... and if ya never removed on may ya never have to....

 

Fuck i just realized i need to get my shock extenders on tonight, they are coming in the mail today, how hard is it to install? i got them temp for this trip and im getting longer shocks ordered in a week or so

 

Matt you bringing Cory?

 

unfortunantly i dont really have a choice i gotta drop some paperwork off at the fire dept at around 8am... im planning on leaving at 8am from there to you guys, about hour and 45 away so 9:45 10 ish, im heading out there with a jeep, so if i cant find you guys right away ill offroad with him, but it is hard to miss 18 tacomas haha

 

super duper easy

i think so... he still might get his truck back in time

let's plan to have a 2nd meet-up at the 4WD practice area around 10...

I Take all your parts came in from engage.

 

Yes indeed..and I can't wait to try out the new lt kit!!

 

GAH! my shock extenders are coming in tomorrow! i think ill just throw both spares in the bed to weigh it down but now im 99% sure ill overextend my 5100s lol

 

just curious what kind of damage are we talking about by overextending shocks

 

i would like to know as well i read somewhere that this guys shock was leaking and he looked underneath and when he took out the shock he saw that it was overextended i guess? something like that but apparently he was driving on it for a while
can someone else chime in?

Looks like a bad day but not a lot of collateral damage, just a busted shock with no fluid and no absorption. looks like you could easily limp home though without hurting anything else except your ass from the horrible ride.
