Sounds like Tim (RI Tacoma) But I could be wrong.. I saw him a few weeks ago.

 

So. I was gone for a few weeks and everyone is having kids!

Please forgive if I missed you or incorrectly give you congrats!
Congratulations Rob, John, Erik, and Seth!

 

Time to drop the top plate of the shock and do it out of the cab

 

Seth you can't tighten it up then possibly run a rethread die over it? then try backing it off again.

 

Seth, I'd suggest what Alex said, get it off the truck so you can get a high speed tool on it like an air gun.

 

I know my shit! I'm a rust fighting veteran

 

Hay Dave i found a few spare parts for the compressor(pressure switch,relay and a 40 amp fuse)
PM me your address and i'll send them down to you.

 

Meh, even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while

 

Nope tried.

 

Not much more time today, I'll probably just drop it off and get it done Monday. Don't think an impact is going to do the trick. I tried to get as much rust of as possible with a wire brush, but guess I needed to clean some more

 

And just noticed my pass side all pro leaf is broken while rotating tires...fun day

 

Did you PB Blaster the hell out of it?

 

Doesn't he have aftermarket rims that stick out a lot?

 

Lol

 

Looks good.. Not to many chrome satoshi's around

 

For the past few days

 

50/50 acetone/ATF works well.

 

Interesting.

 

You can't get a pair of plumbers plyers between the coil ? I've never done it that way . It's much easier on a bench with a spring compressor .

 

Tried. The nut was difficult to get up to that point. Can't get a good enough clamp on the shaft. I'm done with it for now. No more time to deal with it, going to make it someone else's problem Monday
