LOTSOFTOYS PANDA BUILD

Oh haha. I am thinking of adding 5125's as well but without relocating the shocks - I'm not savvy enough to do that... Yet.

FYI I found it easier to pull the pack out to install aal, though I think box may have been able to slide his in after disconnecting crap. Check out on pg 2 (I think) of my build, he posted a lil write up.

 

yeah im pretty decent at it, shouldnt be too bad at all...
i had to relocate my shocks... a few pages back, due to the ubolt flip

ha, more like v


then

 

FWIW, I pulled the leaves off the truck to install the D6XL. Much easier that way.

 

where does arb say to install it again? i havent even looked up installation instructions yet

 

I heard you were in town.

 

well i got my d6xl aal in today..... all i can say is wow.... didnt think i was gonna gain 2 inches of lift from it! hopefully it settles a bit. going tool box shopping monday... add some weight to the ass end

also installed my new spring cushions. old ones had seen better days....

and i found the maximum amountof crap the all pro ubolts can hold lol...dakar leaf pack, d6xl aal and axe relocation plate. needless to say the nuts got some loctite

 

then i stretched her legs to measure for shocks. ordered new billy 5125s 11inch shocks,l. once those are on, im ready for moab!

also noticed i have to space the rear bumps down a little bit, new aal doesnt let the spring pack come up as high.... damnit, another thing to mess with. im sick of changing my rear end. I'm done after this

 

Nice!!

 

it will definitely settle. It doesn't really give me any additional lift anymore, just better load capacity.

Here's the difference with mine. None of the leaf separation that you have right now. It won't take too long and it will settle nicely.

 

right on.... when i set it down off the lift, i was seriously concerned... wasnt expecting that much rake. like i said, i gotta mount my highlift still and find a new toolbox

 

I thought the same thing when I first put mine in. Had TONS of rake. It settled pretty quickly. It'll be fully broken in after the Rock Therapy trip, and I bet you'll still have a slight rake but the load capacity will be so much better.

 

yeah thats what im hopin for.... im hopin i can find a nice heavy tool box to bolt in the front of the bed.

 

just weighed my truck at the recycle center... 4720. right around where I figured.... kinda cool to know

 

i still need to bring my fat ass over and get weighed...

 

well if im 4700 Jr definitely somewhere north of 6

 

It will be close. With 285's and what I have in mine I weigh 5240 at the landscape place where I last got on a scale.

 

hes got alot more than just 500 pds on me though.... he'll look at that rear bumper lol
