The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

You are a retard for not getting that arb. For reals

 

Just bad timing. I bought 35s bro. That was my splurge.

 

You are officially never allowed to give me shit about my locker project after passing up that sale.

 

Yes I can. I'd have done it all myself haha

Plus I wouldn't have put it in till gears anyways.

 

Doesent matter cuz you ain't doin either.

Tard

 

Haha but I will. Actually can't wait. Dying to learn how to set diffs up

 

Does the rattle can bedliner fade (noticeably) with time?
Oh they definitely are epic bumpers, that's why I'm just waiting on my Paypal invoice and then I'm sending my pennies on over to Tim for the work to begin!

 

I haven't noticed mine fading. I have rustoleum on both front and rear bumpers and my sliders. It has been on my front bumper for 2.5 years and if I go touch up one small spot, it blends in like it never happened. So I would say, no it doesn't fade over time.

 

Sweet!! You use the Rustoleum bedliner or are you using the same as Monte (Duplicolor) bedliner?

 

I'm using the rustoleum bedliner but I imagine the duplicolor is the same.

 

Nope. Holds up great. Both kinds did. My sliders are still just rustoleum. But they are really scratched up from the roll over and use.

Why?? I do. Most clearance for the money with very little trimming and fills out the wheel wells perfect.

35s take more effort then most can do..but I have witnessed Jon's 35s helping him a lot and I'm stoked to cut up Frankenstein more to make em fit

 

Maybe I'm just a better driver.

 

Pshhhhh whatever. I'm not the one that bash his LBJ apart

 

It looks like my taunting you had absolutely NO effect! Congratulations on your 35s... and keeping my tire size one step behind you!


Oh... one quick question. Do you have a picture of your shackle angle when the truck is on level ground?

 

Hmmm..yes I think so..let me do some looking

And yes I can't wait! I still really want a locker bad tho..would be nice to do F/R lockers when I do gears..just probably can't afford it.

 

Hey man I don't have any pics of the shackles dead on. Looks like 45ish tho or damn near.

But im home this Thursday so ill take some for ya then.

 

monte looks like Im going to be doing your blinker relocate this summer too

 

Sweet man. Works great! I should get clear corners again..

 

It's not as scary as it seems if you sit down and read. It's just about precision and remembering some key things.

Link seems to be down for now but it's the best write up I've seen. Zuk has a lot but IMO this is more clear. Definitely go through and read a bunch of his though. Also might be worth checking out gear setup on BillaVista's tech page.

New ring gear bolts. Don't pull the ring gear onto the carrier using bolts, don't wail on it with a hammer either. Loctite. Check for warpage/high spots. Use high quality tools. Be precise. Lock the pinion when you check for backlash. Take multiple measurements at several different positions. Write everything down. Follow the steps lol. Just thinking off the top of my head.

If that link never comes back up I've got the whole page saved offline, I can find a way to send it to you. I think it's a pretty damn good write up.

 

Thanks man!

I think between you, Silas, my dad and my buddy Tim. Ill be able to do it no prob. Just can't wait!
