Those bypass are so nice.

 

yes they are. i want a pair of the icon bypasses so bad... too bad they're almost $800 each

 

alright! I gotta stop by and see the truck!

 

Woke up this morning and looks like I AM black from the waist down! LOL



Nop spindles are not on. Cant really be an update unless they're installed but here's what Ive got sitting in the office.

Expensive Semi-update:

Started prepping to go on last weeks Barstow-Lucerne run. Found out my lower uniballs are shot. Had quite a bit of play in them. Im glad I caught it before something bad happened.

Ordered some new TC uniballs and DMZ Tim was nice enough to press them into the adaptor for me. Those uniballs are expensive! But I got 6 years out of them, so Im not complaining. Ordered some upper uniballs and had them pressed into my new UCA's as well.





Bought spindles, ended up having to get heimed UCAs as well. The truck is at 130k miles so Im starting to prepare to change out the wheel bearings. All preventative maintenance. Toyota raped me (all the seals cost me $100+). All these little things are what adds up in this sport.

 

^^^ nice man. i'm jelly of those heim UCA. i need to do some preventative maintenance too, timing belt and water pump and replace my steering rack. the little stuff does add up fast

 

Any of you guys with Defined Eng. rear SUA got pics of where you mount the limit straps?

Gonna be running the stock length shocks for now and Jounce stops...I know but I just dont have the Fab time or skills or extra money for the kings or fox

 

Where are you located?

 

X2!! I was gonna ask mike next week when I pick up my kit. Pics would be great tho

 

Anyone check the Defined Website?

 

Sounds familiar haha

 

Santa Rosa north of SF.

I did sort of ask him. Im old. Pics are worth a million words when your over 40

 

Here's Mike (Defined) personal truck with straps on it:




Look through the "Past Project" Section of the Defined Engineering website for more photos:
