why not? did you end up getting them in 17s instead of 15s?

 

he got 35x12.5x15...needs spindles...clearing them...gears.

 

I'm gunna take the extra time and cycle everything to clear them instead of just slapping them on. 35s are huge on these little first gens, so it will be a lot of work to clear them well

 

ohhhhhhhh ok. buddy of mine is considering 35s but isnt sure since he has the stock spindles.

 

You never know, last week we saw a stock honda civic, way past the campsites driving down the dunes going at least 30....you could tell the guys were having the time of their lives haha

I'm down to head out there, where do you guys usually meet?

 

front wheel drive cars do very well in the dunes

 

I mean, they will clear on stock spindles, many people have done it, but lift spindles would make it sooo much easier

 

Yeah got Extended with IVD.

 

haha no worries bro

it should be back the first week of march, with the whole front end redone…the money tree stopped growing so gona have to wait to redo the SUA, which sucks cuz i can't really drive it to hard till then or the drive shaft is just gona give me more issues so hopefully this summer ill get the rear dealt with

 

i saw a bright orange Mazda Miata out there in the pouring rain one time not on the hard pack but in the wayyyy back, don't know how he crossed the river because i could barely get thru and it was probably as deep as his car haha but the guy was smashing the fuck out of it i wanted to ask for a ride haha

 

cant you add a slip yoke to your drive shaft to help with the carrier bearing issue?

 

so everyone going to pismo... order one of these and select one day shipping.

for under 50 bucks youll have a sweet handheld ham with way more power than the cb's

 

What do you guys use to refill your tires after you air down? I am looking for something low cost.

 

there is a chevron gas station about a mile from the entrance. Its on the corner of grand and 13th st. Its a pretty big station too. Free air along with a car wash that is touch free and does undercarriage washes

 

I don't have any carrier bearing issues

 

Waiting for dirt designs or dtf to get back to me about making me an lt kit before I join y'all. No one seems too jazzed to build a full lt 5 lug kit. Surprising cuz I thought $9k for a build wasn't too bad an offer for a lt kit.

 

any pics of your new truck?

 

just a little teaser for now

 

i don't know the whole issue with it but i have it a custom length, a slip yoke and a whole new carrier bearing and a whole new crossmember that it mounts too so it should be strong as fuck! yet it still keeps ripping off the mount from the frame its the same specifications as Anthonys and he has no problems with his kit. so i think its set up to run with his kit and something about the defined kit does something to the drive shaft that puts a lot of stress on it or something like that? i don't remember all the details haha all i know is its like the only damn thing on the truck give me issues

this is what happened the first time when it was stock



than this happend the first time i re did the DS



than we reinforced it like this and its broken twice




and then this is what happened most recently after it got super reinforced and gusseted so idk whats wrong with it lol



and that happened out at the beach so it was kinda shitty
