Northern Colorado

Yeah. Scheduled maintenance. For last Friday, and they didn't touch it or again Saturday. I may have to get in someone's ear on Monday as I wouldn't have left it there if they were not going to get to work on it.


Still need to adjust one side a bit up on the front I feel. But thank you.

 

Do you guys have any recommendations on shops in Fort Collins that will install a lift for me? Ill have all the parts just no tools/garage to do the job.

 

How soon do you need it done?

 

Just within the next month or so, still waiting on a few parts.

 

I'd come laugh at you and point out mistakes and call you degrading names while you do it yourself somewhere. I have alloall the tools needed but no space to do it

 

Lol if all else fails I might take you up on that.

 

I have the space and tools to do it over in Windsor. Not sure when I’ll have the time, but I’m sure we can figure it out. I’d sit back with Andy and laugh at you too. I suppose I could lend a hand every once in a while as well

 

I’m always down for unsolicited mockery. Let me know when and I’ll lend as much bad advice as possible.

 

I can prolly hook you up, I've installed a few lifts in the driveway.
How soon will you have all the parts and what kind of kit did you get?
We can invite the brain trust over and make a day of it.

 

I'll bring the La Croixs and my camp chair.

 

Just the standard OME/5100s. I'd have to get the front components assembled though. Everything shipped yesterday so I'm guessing a week or so

 

depending on how seized things are and what may be needed to be cut off I would suggest the following..
the lower bolts for the front shock assembly. The nuts usually come off easy but the bolt may be rusted to the inner shock bushing which means it will have to be cut off.

The rear springs, the front bolt for the frame to spring attachment, get those bolts too. again, the nuts usually come off fine, it's again the bolt that seizes to the inner bushing.
If you ordered new rear shackles, they should come with new bolts.
ACE hardware DOES NOT carry these bolts in the correct size.
But Pederson Toyota has them in a drawer, common sale item.

 

and maybe a set of new U bolts and stuff for the rear leaves, the stock stuff won't fit.

 

Same here, also in Windsor. Plus 8 beers on tap (okay, one is a cider, so 7 beers and a cider) and all the tools. I'm sure we can figure something out.

 

I'd laugh at you a lot more with beer on tap..... Windsor isn't far

 

Your place sounds best. So far it’s the only suggestion with beer on tap

 

Sounds good. Any Saturday in September after Labor Day should work for me. I have hand tools, air tools, jack, and jack stands. Doubt we'd need anything I don't already have. Maybe a Sawzall or heavy duty grinder if any cutting becomes necessary.

 

Probably best to coordinate with @FloridaTaco31 since their truck is the one that needs work lol

 

Just putting it out there. When @FloridaTaco31 is ready to roll on this, he can let us all know.

 

Hell yeah. Plus this thread has a lot more members than it used to so it’ll be nice to put some more faces to the trucks I see around town
