Nova Scotia BS Thread

Hahahah I hate going for drives and then being like "seriously where the fuck am I and how the hell do I get home"

You don't have to sleep in your truck do you?

 

just till ottawa. I have a friend there and she said i could sleep at her place.

 

bow-chika-wow-wow

 

I thought that but didn't wanna say it! Hahahah

 

If my trips back and fourth to Alberta involved staying at a female "friend's" place, then maybe I would have enjoyed it a little more.

 

Any trip would be more enjoyable then!

 

I gotta stop taking naps every 10 minutes to get there though haha.

So wheres a good place to get cheap/better than stock leafs in the city? Mine are starting to curve the wrong way.

 

You can get them redone, or leaves replaced at a place in burnside. I can't remember the name of it though. Leafs from toyota are like 1200 bucks a piece. When i broke mine it was cheaper for me to lift it then get stock ones. I didn't price up just that one leaf that broke, on both sides, in the same spot.

 

Parts for trucks make new leaf packs

 

Yeah, something like that would probably be cheaper than buying new!

 

Any recommendations for a good alignment shop in HRM? I'm running LR UCAs and I've had issues before with shops not being great with aftermarket suspensions.

 

I got mine lined up at Scotia Tire on Cole Harbor road. They did a good job. Another guy got his done at Miller, I think he said they did fine too.

Do you have the alignment sheet that comes with the control arms? I figure that'll help, if not I can scan it and email it to you (provided I can figure out how to scan shit).

It might even be on the forum!

 

Yeah, I have all the stuff that came with the UCA plus theres a great write-up on here by BJMoose I believe, breaks things down really well. I just want to ensure the shop I go to has experience with aftermarket UCA's.

 

They didn't have to touch mine when I got it lined up.

 

Valley Tire here in Kentville, or Bridgewater for that matter, have been doing lifts for years, probably safer saying "decades", they were phenominal with my lift, and they know their shit too. TheTemp, did you get another pair of UCA bolts? They're going to have to cut yours in two to get the factory UCAs off.

 

I didn't have to cut mine off. I had to bend out the fender a little though, and then I couldn't feed them up the other way because there was a brake line in the way.

 

If I was to get new leafs, I would definitely get all pro expo leafs. Comes with u bolt flip kit and they are pretty much the best leafs you can buy for 550

 

Finally made it home! Later tonight i gotta see how much gas i used and all that. Got another nice crack in the windshield at somepoint, havent looked at the leafs since ontario and am a bit scared to.

 

Welcome home.hope all works out for you

 

Welcome home to all the snow
