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

Nah that's what bumps stops are for..

 

Practically..

Gonna fix that this summer hopefully.

 

Wanna trade for some used Alcans? I can bring them with me.

 

Monte, did you ever replace the grease in your XRC winch with something better?

 

Hmmmm...that's not a bad idea..

Yes. Well..I didnt..but Jon did the guy who had it before more. It's recomended by most. Stock grease is no so great I guess

 

I have some interest locally but I would rather make a deal with you.

 

Still got the shit ass billies too?

 

Yup. I could bring them a well.

 

Damn...too bad I can't afford it haha

 

haha, who are you kidding. I would not cost you any cash at all.

 

Labor haha

Well..hmm..how much lift did they give you? Would I have to trim the exhaust??

 

With little or no lift :not sure: but on my trucfk 2"s, may be a bit more.

I have no idea on your exhaust. Mine is trimmed so not way to measure.

 

Little or no lift?? Yet 2"?

Or you saying little to no lift with yours but maybe 2 with mine?

 

With no lift on igor it is almost impossible to predict what you would end up with. My guess is 2" over lift over stock with no weight in the bed.

 

Oh right yea I'm with you there.

I'll think about it..would be a nice addition to the new coil overs.

 

Well, don't wait too long to decide what you want. Almost time to start planing how to make everything fit.

 

Oh, and FWIW, the main spring eye bolts are installed.

 

How did they even come out? Haha

 

The bolt head on the passenger side had to be cut off with a cutoff wheel. Was simple after that.

 

Explain how driving an auto would cause the driver to crash from lack of attention? I've driven both extensively and never had trouble paying attention driving an auto or a manual.
I personally don't see why people would burden themselves with driving a manual in daily bumper to bumper traffic, that is not fun at all. I did that for 5 years and it got old real fast. Auto for a daily driver, manual for a weekend vehicle is the way I see it. I work 12 hours a day on a construction site, by the end of the day, I'm usually too tired to even desire driving a manual, just put my auto in D and go.

But, you are a kid, you will come to appriciate autos once you get older. I used to think manuals were the shit too when I started driving. Some people take longer than others, I'm only 22 but would never go back to a manual for a daily driver after having an auto for awhile, screw that.
