    ...too much shit to list.
    That's the only life I know. :anonymous:
    I've learned from past experience. I own a set of pretty damn beefy set of widow-maker spring compressors. They have been used on more TW trucks than I care to admit...including my own. But I always put a spare tire (with valve core removed) on top of the coilover assembly as I tighten/loosen. If shit goes south, the tire acts as a lifesaver.
    How much did that thing run you if you don't mind me asking?

    It was around $800.
    My boss needed new coils in his 1st gen so he bought it for that......just that. Ive used it many times since. I pretty much just keep it and if it happens to be needed by the mechanic at work, I take it to him. Hasn't needed it since the initial install.
    It's definitely nice to have to use for my TW fam

    Pretty much what I expected. Well if you or your boss ever runs into financial trouble and need to offload that paperweight to some TW asshole...you know how to find me.

    Perhaps we can tap my driver's CV the rest of the way in. Jimmy swears my popping noise up front is my lack of hammer authority when I installed the new ones...

    enough to go over stuff
    Selling the two 285/70/17 dyna pro MTs from my trailer on blackrock 909 rims with less than 1,000 miles.

    Also selling my spare tire 285/70/17 dynapro MT on a black rock 909 rim. Used once to get home.

    IMG_4763_zpssvjwjtzw_2ecd03ca166c85e822f5be60c2228d690b18f49c.jpg

    Trailer rims have some rock rash.

    All you need is to buy 1 rim and one tire and you have a full new set.

    @916TacoTruck the mounts for my front bumper are cracked (the piece where you fasten 3 nuts on each side). Can you tack it back together?
