Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

​

 

Sorry to hear that man. Condolences to you and your family. Also lost my mom to cancer quickly, and like you said, it was mercy.

On that lighter note, Expo = Expedition. Expedition Portal had those oval stickers (like "GB" for Gambia... or possibly Great Britain) that read "Expo". Then it turned into a thing...

What was wrong with your rear diff dude?

Hey you should hold off on replacing the uniballs until I can get some real world feedback on those Icon Delta Joints. People are starting to use them and if they pan out well, it is only a matter of time until they release them as retrofits for other brand UCA's like yours and mine also. Mine are squeaking to hell but that's nothing a little spray won't temporarily cure. For a year at most until they release their non proprietary joints.

 

Ya lost me at Icon.

 

I always get lost at Icon also, but their uniball/ ball joint hybrid seems to look really well thought out so I'm willing to entertain that until I am informed differently. I'm tired of hearing squeaky mcsqueakin' ALL the time. I want to just hear the blower whine and that's it. Lol.

 

Check my build.

Solid pass on anything Icon related. My Camburg uniballs are just starting to get a little pitting and rust due to me not cleaning them off enough. Ordering replacements, will probably take about 30 minutes a side or so to replace.
Honestly Uniballs wouldn't creak if everyone kept them clean constantly and threw some dry lube in there occasionally. I had mine all cleaned up and lubed, creaks and squeaks gone, got to hollister and got behind a group of crawlers kicking up dust, truck immediately started squeaking.

 

Sorry to hear man, cancer truly is one cruel bitch.

 

I frequently lube my 4 uniballs and my 8 bushings. The front of my truck still squeaks like a mofo. It is what it is. Also know what you mean about diff noises. Mine had a hum for 6 months before it blew and now its so quiet. I only have noise now from my exhaust, tires, roof rack, gear, fridge, and balls. so still pretty loud.

 

i've given up and embraced it. Balls groan, bushings squeal and bypasses clunk. Noise train comin at you, choo choo

 

Sorry to hear it, my condolences! Lost 3 to cancer myself. Fuck cancer!

 

Fuckin retarded.

This is what happens when kids/teens are never exposed to fire arms. They don't realize or understand the reality of what a bullet can and will do until it's too late.

 

I forgot the bypass clunks. Got those too...

 

Seems to me like the boyfriend got pretty well exposed.

 

Long shot, but does anyone have any All Pro +2 axles handy? Apparently they have a 5 day handling time and that will severely harsh my mellow on the planned install next weekend. I ordered yesterday morning and they wont even ship until next Thursday (maybe).

I will gladly hand you my axles once they arrive in turn for your axles today.

 

call TC.
