5100's or 3" toytec?

for the most part its an easy install right?
where could i get those compressors at?

 

my buddy runs an offroad shop here in town so I used his. I wouldn't buy them myself because i would probably only have used them once. you're probably better off asking an auto shop to do it for a little cash, or maybe a 12 pack..

it was an easy install, it definatly helped having a helper tho. the most frustrating part for me was installing the AAL. the front coils / 5100s slipped right in without much trouble.

 

Yah. There is a 4wp down somewhat close by. Ill try them. Where is your buddies shop in socal?

 

i wouldnt have 4wp install - i saw a post somewhere else they wanted 200-something dollars to install..

newbury park - "pure power offroad". he does mostly jeep stuff

 

Do you also have to get an alignment after installing these?

 

Newbury Park? Is that at all near San Diego? If so you think he could hook me up? I would do most the work if he would let me I just don't have the tools at my house.

 

I think Newbury Park is in Ventura County.

 

Hmm anybody know a shop in SD that might hook me up? Or anybody from here that lives in SD that would wanna do a little weekend project?

 

Did you have the rear TSB done on your truck?

 

From what I have read, it's a fairly straightforward install. I plan on doing it myself next week (when all my parts arrive). But one thing I've read consistently is that you should have an extra pair of hands to help out.

You can rent them from O'Reilly's for free (minus an $85 deposit that you get back upon return). However, someone earlier in this thread mentioned something about Pep Boys compressing the springs for them for $20/each. To me, $40 is probably worth it just for the safety factor (seeing as how I've never done it before).

Yes, you do.

 

i have 5100's. they are a good innexpensive solution but i'd like to upgrade later on. you can check out my gallary to see how it looks

 

Newbury Park is in ventura county (like derek says). If you wanted to hike your ass all the way up here i could help you out. lol

 

Haha I would have to mapquest to see how far it is... I haven't heard of it so it must be a nice healthy distance

 

i think its a little over 4 hours..?

 

Hey numbnuts whats your rear suspension setup? You running an add a leaf or blocks?

 

couch's truck is stock in the rear. all he did was level the front after the tsb.

 

Just the TSB. mine seemed to be higher than most peoples. it is perfectly level with the front set at 2.5

 

Ok thanks guys, mine truck seems to sit pretty damn high too after getting the TSB.

 

give it a few months......it'll settle a bit...maybe a half an inch to one inch.
