Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Found another use for the trasharoo

 

Lmao....awesome

 

It went in one hole pink and came out the other brown





(my transmission fluid that is )



Maintenance day at casa de BudMan. Engine oil, transmission fluid, transfer case oil, air filter. Decided against front and rear diff bc I'm close to a regear. Figured it'd be motivation...
Dropping skids has always been a bit of a bitch but a ratcheting box wrench made it SOOO much easier and faster.
And I don't know how I ever worked under the truck in the driveway without a creeper. I didn't have to be wiggling around like a beached dolphin

 

A little too much rake up front...



That one was right on the nose... Hey oh!





Ride isn't that bad. Rubs under heavy compression.

 

So basically, don't go over any pebbles in the road, try not to brake heavily...

 

Paws shmaws.

Doing a wedding project today and left lowes to what sounded like my hub going out. Pretty pissed because I just replaced them and took my wheel off to find this.

 

What pads and how long have they been on there?

 

Upper level orielly pads and about 10k miles

 

Thanks guys its a ways down the road but I like looking a head

 

Phil you take you're coilovers in? What's the word on why they leaked?

 

So yesterday a few friends piled in the truck and we headed up to ElDorado national forest to just have some fun we went to a few spots up there to play in the snow and BBQ it was all in all a good day
didn't really do any wheeling we wen down one road that had a few good mud holes on but other then that the roads were

 

@BudMan I was able to move some things around and I am going with the wife!

 

Finished my weekend project. On to the next honey do.

Going to clothes pin photos on them for the wedding. Made to look weathered.

 

"weathered", I love it. In laws just got all new cabinets in their kitchen, got the 'weathered' or 'distressed' look to them. I give them shit all the time, 'You paid money for new cabinets, and then paid even more money for someone to make them look messed up'.

 

Looks good Sam

 

So easy to make it yourself and make it look antiqiey. Stupid to waste money on pre fab stuff only to sand it and weather it. IMO

 

Nice....check out izzys basket

 

Not yet. Just got the truck back yesterday evening. It's been all about cooking, coloring, and hiding eggs since then.

I did glance at them. The whole shock was coated, so I still think the tech tried to loosen the top cap, instead of the lower spring seat, and damaged an o-ring. The oil leaked onto the axleshaft and sprayed everywhere, so I couldn't pinpoint the source. Figured it would only leak from the shaft/ bearing cap or the top cap/ shock body since they're not resi's. Both areas are coated with oil.

I will try to get them to Sac. tomorrow.
