    I can fill them, not sure I have the tools to rebuild SAW stuff. I've got a good nitro charging setup however.

    Where are you located in Vista? I work in the Sycamore Business Park and could stop by after work one day around 4:30pm or at lunch time on a weekday if you’re available. What would you charge for a refill?

    I got 4wheel parts to swap out the front and rear and set them for $700. I did all the labor of pulling the diffs so it saved me a few hundred.

    I believe it's whole kit. It has the coupler, a few gaskets and oil.

    From @KrnTaco08 (Thank you!)

    Just wanted to give a special shout out to @Speed Freek for working on my suspension today. He installed King 2.5 w/res, Baja kits UCA and a deaver mini leaf pack.

    He was professional, very knowledgeable, took care of my truck like it was one of his own and an awesome guy to be around.

    He did an amazing job. Couldn’t be happier. I drove all the way from LA and it was totally worth it. Highly recommend! Tell all your friends about him. Legit guy. Thank you again!!

    Here are some pictures. My truck is not done yet. I’ll be installing new tires and rims this weekend. SCS Ray 10s with/BFGs :bananadance:

    Forgot to post the final pics of a recent big build!


    Day 3............Truck is finished! Man I can not say enough how awesome Jason @Speed Freek is!!!!!!!!!!

    This was a long one and he did not cut corners or try to rush the job at all. He is a true professional, his work ethic and attitude are amazing. There are not many people who put the effort into something like Jason does and this is not even his truck. This speaks volumes for his level of dedication and professionalism. He is not satisfied until everything is perfect. How often do you find that nowadays, it is rare....... Thank you again Jason!!Now onto the good stuff.
