Hawaii BS Thread!

Also, for the Big Island guys....

Im going to try to coordinate our meet (If it goes through) with some TTORA guys; the more the merrier, right?

 

Cherreh!!!!

 

Got any dates? Choke guys coming back from Oahu

 

tentative for now... Still don't know work schedules and my truck's still broken

 

I hope it doesnt fall on the days that I work..

What your AAL?

 

yeah, and apparently it's having trouble starting (From what my parents have told me...)
gonna have to wrench a little when I get home, hopefully it's just a dead battery from sitting for so long

 

Mine died yesterday while I was trying to adjust projectors..
Lemme me know if you need a hand

 

Here are the pictures I have been trying to post lol, what lift is this? & what do you guys think?

 

From the looks of it, Its a AAL. It's right on top of you overload spring

 

I have absolutely no idea what you just said lol. Would this be hard to take off? How much did the person who put this on my truck pay for this lift?

 

You see the very bottom spring? Its the fat one, right above that one is your AAL..haha

Try this its basically but its on a 2nd gen

 

Actually, can you measure the distance between the center of the hub to the top of the fender gap?

To me, i looks like the truck was leveled with a spacer up front with a stock rear. You only have 3 leaves in the rear + the overload; if you had an AAL you should have 4 or 5 if your truck had a TSB

 

2nd gens came with 3 leaf stock packs, AAL is 4 leafs total

TSB leafs came with 4 from the factory, so TSB+AAL=5 leafs

he has the main two leafs, the shorter AAL, and an overload. If that was the extra leaf from the TSB, it would be longer than the actual overload, not shorter.

but yeah, spacer up front (the big metal puck that sits above the spring that isn't the same color), AAL out back.

so removing the shortest leaf of your pack (second closest to the ground, the AAL) would lower the truck to stock height in the back.

 

fuckin 2nd gens are weird as shit. only 2 leaves?!

 

Im coming over for vacation again on the 1st week of August maybe i will see some of you derps

 

Hello all!

Sub'd because I found out that I'm getting orders to Schofield Barracks on Oahu.

 

bringing the truck, right?

 

Sup bro. You will love it here. If I were you, I would buy the truck in the mainland an ship it here. Reason being is that prices are cheaper in the mainland. This also goes for aftermarket stuff. Shipping and handling is expensive. There aren't to many places to wheel out here anymore. Gas is expensive an so is the cost of living. Go out an see the island. As is everywhere, some locals are cool, some don't like the military at all. The island is small and over crowded. Lots of traffic. There are beautiful beaches, views, fish, mountains, women, waterfalls hikes. It just depends on how you view any of these. For me, its not so bad. Its my home. If you need more help or whatever, hit me up bro. I am stationed at schofield barracks and am from the island so I can kinda help on both sides of the fence. Military and local civilian.

 

Cool thanks man! All the talk about gas and traffic is kinda pushing me towards getting some cheap good gas milage car instead.

I'm an adventurist really. Hiking, camping, rafting, rock climbing that kind of stuff. I used to dive in Florida so I'll definitely be getting back into that. I'd like to give para sailing and hang gliding a try too.

 

You will be able to do all that stuff. You could say its kinda like Florida here with out gators. I have two cars. My truck is to go out on weekends. My car is to save on gas an park in spots were I won't care if it gets hit. I used to drive my truck until an LT. opened her door into my truck once. Then I thought to myself, never again. You know how it is, some people care about their cars an others don't.
