Hank the Truck V.2 (Flippac Build)

Oh yea... These showed up. More on that soon.

Bilstein 8112 Internal bypass front and 8100 bypass rear.

 

when? where?

 

Successful instal of the new Shocks.

Rears took slightly longer than expected due the need of grinding down the airbag mounting hardware and replacing all the corroded bolts. Fronts were surprisingly smooth on the instal.

UCAs from JBA also went in relatively easily. Washers next to the bushings are not labeled the easiest so some trial and error is needed. Two thicknesses of large flat washers... labeled .157 and 14g... Maybe we were just boneheaded, but it was unclear where each was supposed to go without test fitting.

 

Spending a fair amount of time in Tahoe these days.

 

I've had a busy Spring....

 

I upgraded to 35"/12.5" BFG KM3 Mud Terrains. Since then, i've been working on creating clearance for the big meaty rubber. I've cut and patched the cab mount 3 times... still rubbing.

to completely get around the rub, I just ordered a set of Califabrication Cab Mount Relocators. But until then, here is where we are.

 

Awesome build & great shots! Do you by chance have any video footage of getting send-y with the Bilstein 8100s?
