Thanks Chad! Same to you brotha

 

Much appreciated!!!
​

Hope all is well! Wishing you and yours the very best!

Were those the 18w ones?

 

Sounds right. I think they only sell the one type.

 

ImMrYo rearview mirror relocate


And I did the forum favorite unifilter mod on the secondary injection (emissions) pump.


Also used Chemical Guys Bare Bones on my suspension parts. It's oil based so will server as a protectant. I'll take some photos tomorrow in the sun light if I remember.

 

Nice looking rig your building found it in the 887 thread I'm heading in a similar direction I just purchased the sr8's do you have any suggestions on lug nuts for these

 

If you order your wheels from Vin, he sends you lug nuts with the wheels. I didn't have to buy any extras. They look like the gorilla lugs spline. He also provides the spline socket. I did buy my wheels almost 1.5 years ago so things could have changed.

As far as the 887s, I love them. I would suggest saving up for UCAs if you weren't planning on it.

 

I will wait and see if they come with the wheels then.I am going to get arms when I do the lift for sure just on the fence for spc lr's or jba's,leaning more towards jba because of the balljoint and bushings they use.

 

Yep, my truck is a beach bum so I didn't want the uniball UCAs. I actually want to replace my ball joints already. They rusted pretty quickly but JBA suggested to keep a layer of wax to prevent that from happening. They perform great, but I don't like to see rust under my 3 year old truck.

 

Yeah I'm up here in the rust belt so I would have to coat them thanx for the info.

 

Chad, your faster than me in liking/viewing posts in my build thread!

Chase how'd you like using the BareBones? Was thinking of getting it to use on my shocks, frame, wheel wells, etc...lots of salt up here figured it would help. You get a chance to apply it yet?

 

I did. I was impressed with the overall shine and the fact it made my entire garage smell like grapes. I did however do about 1k miles over the last week, 2/3 of that was in rain so the shine is gone.

I did notice some spots around my UCA and ball joint that seem to be greasy/dirty, but I expect most of the film to be gone.

I'm definitely buying the gallon size refill on my next order.

 

I feel like that's what I've read about it, you pretty much have to plan out to do it when it's dry for a couple days so that after you wash and use it it can set a bit. Obviously it's meant for multiple applications and is more of a dressing than a long lasting film but hopefully it does the job.

 

Ditched the 10in Rigid Radiance for a 21in Amazon special. I'm actually semi impressed with the light output.



I'm going to add amber raptor lights once I get the mounting figured out. The best part is I'm just reusing my Rigid harness so I already have a switch and lead ready.

 

Raptor lights complete

 

"Raptor" lights look sick Chase...been thinking about doing those for a while

 

Thanks Zach!

I had to get a bit creative with the bracket. Luckily the lights I bought have 3 LEDs so you don't notice that the pro grille blocks one of them.
