Charlotte, NC area: hate on OP, houses, boats & hoes

The heep! Mine did fine and took him down a little trail to show him my options. He wants to run Uwharrie but never had it out off-road since he’s had it..thought this may be something easy to see if any problems..

BTW..when the $$ hits my account the suspension will be ordered. Headstrong really isn’t sure when the 5160/6112 will be in stock so going with Bilstein 5100 and 887’s.

 

You'll be happy with that choice as well.

 

Quick update on my lift install. First thank you all so much for the advice and suggestions. I ended up going with Tarheel 4WD Center in Midland. They installed Bilstein 5100s front and rear (front set to 4th notch), 1 inch blocks in the rear and also the ECGS bushing. They were very responsive and knowledgeable, gave me a fair quote and didn’t try to sell me on anything more complex or expensive than what I wanted. I ordered everything except the bushing from Headstrong. Before and after pics below. The change is subtle but exactly what I was looking for.

Congrats! Looks great for a 3rd Gen.

 

The new bumper arrived, so this one is now available. I am lowering my price to $600 to local members, so it can go fast. Plus that would save the hassle of a long drive to meet up. Removing it tonight and officially listing it in the next few days.

 

What bumper did you go with?

 

Brute Force Fab hybrid. It complements my SOS HC rear bumper perfectly. Not my picture:

 

I will say that BFF stuff is pretty sick! I love SOS too. They are probably the only other armor manufacturer that I would buy but I am not going to pay that shipping.

 

I really like SOS, and I especially like an excuse to drive to the beach and not pay shipping. Last I checked Eddy didn’t have a hybrid.

 

He's in Laurens, SC now just 1:30 min from Charlotte area. You are correct with the Hybrid. I like Hybrids and tube work more than plate.

 

I heard he moved, but I didn’t know he moved this close. It’s been a few years since I got my rear bumper from him. Either way, Billy at brute force does amazing work too. Both are true craftsman.

 

Any of you local guys in the CLT area have "a guy" that you use for inspections? My "guy" just quit his job and I need someone to inspect my truck and turn a blind eye to my dark windows

 

EDIT; They gone

Hey guys. I have some King ext. travel coilovers with adjusters and 700lb coils, ordered from DSM for my '07 DCLB with extra weight. They are BNIB. Anybody local interested before I post in the B/S/T?

But 4 more weeks before I get a weekend Don’t believe I am going to tackle this by myself...

 

Got my sos skids and sliders installed today, very happy with the results.

I will have Total Chaos arms with new bushings and uniballs available soon...
