NJ B.S. Thread

I just poured a beer on the curb in memory

was it the ARB fridge pic that buried the hatchet?

 

Hey it's all good. Just suggesting. Most of my flat tires have received plugs because I didn't want to wait for it to be done at a shop and I carry plugs with me.

 

That didn't take long!

 

If you have their rewards card, which is free, you get free flat repair. At least when I signed up for it, that was one of the perks.

 

If that was the reason thats pretty messed up..

Share your opinion on a subject and if its not the favored opinion you get banned.. seems legit

 

Yeah, let him be he helped me with something in another thread

THATS WHY IT WAS FREE! I was confused when they rung me up. Chris, remember I was telling you about my front shock issues? Take a peek at this, I copy pasted the following from a thread I made on t4r. I finally got around to renting the spring compressor when I went to pep boys.

A while back I had a shop replace my front XREAS because I wasn't planning on modding the truck as heavily as I decided to. I immediately noticed a weird ringing and clunk. I took it back to STS who had replaced the shocks, numerous times and they couldn't figure it out, neither could I. I then noticed the shock top not wasn't compressing the bushings, though it was tightened all the way to the end of the threads. I took it back, they got the top bushings sorted out and tightened it down.

Truck rode fine, though I still occasionally noticed the clunk going over bumps. Took it back, they said it was fine. They messed up something and a few months ago my new XREAS with 15k on it was leaking like a sieve. I replaced it with my current 5100s and Eibach springs and ditched the front sway. I noticed a much better ride.

I finally got around to investigating the old coil overs and this is what I discovered:

The shocks were assembled the wrong way and two bushings were placed on top of the top hat and no spring retainer was used, so sthe shock was bouncing around inside the top hat and eroded a portion or it. I know that I had posted about this in the suspension thread and was talking to [MENTION=44866]ARK_SWAMP_RIDER[/MENTION] & [MENTION=98468]BigNuge[/MENTION] amongst others about it, but I finally solved the mystery of this front end clunk.

Needless to say, the truck will never be seeing that shop again.

 

Wow, they really screwed that up didn't they.

 

yeah... pretty pathetic and scary. Who is to say when that could have caused the whole shock assembly to fail.
