Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

4xInnovations/ ATO shackles for the reflip. Uses Poly bushings. Other part is a swingout bracket that gets welded to the ATO bumper. Same one I had before, but it was cut off and scrapped. Had a totally different idea and am going back to a normal swingout. Bottom tubing will have (3) 55° ish tubes welded to it that will conform to the bottom part of the camper. Those tubes will get welded to my original unistrut laden swingout.

Kinda like this, except not pink. Well maybe pink.



This is the same bracket.

 

Hopefully someone is. That way I can throw 2 bed bars in their truck to take back that way lol

 

those upgrade shackles look nice. just need the new hangers.

 

Thanks. I thought that they were only for ATO's shackle flip kit. Then @jberry813 started running them. Not planning to copy Jason on any other suspension modifications unless I find a giant bag of money.

 

Sick of spending money on sway bar bushing. This should do it though

 

I got a set of those ATOs to upgrade the stock shackles if I ever get around to installing the mountain of parts I'm storing.

 

Wtf is that? Is that a shackle attached with a padlock?

Edit: just remove that swaybar

 

Haha saw it on a Toyota Facebook page lol

 

Hey guys, Daniel from the Deadman Kickstarter here. Yes, the pictures are the L and R side of that same rock. In this case, the Deadman essentially wrapped around the back & sides of the rock, allowing us to attach a winch line extension to either side to create a full loop. No risk of slipping over/under the rock. It's extremely stable and capable of pulling way more than the truck weighs... so yeah, pick a big rock.

 

Spotted this bad boy at work

 

are you doing a dual swing out?

 

Ive been running those shackles for over a year now. Definitely a good product. Highly recommend.

Whats the part number for the poly bushings please?

 

Anyone have any ideas on how to remove wheel locks with no key, and possibly over tightened, also possibly crossthreaded?

And who do y'all prefer to get heims from? Looking at ruffstuff currently.

 

Slam a socket in there and see if you can pull it out with an impact.

Worst case is run to a dealer and they can take them off. I did this to when I lost a key.

Nope. Single swing. More versatile with the track system and for my application. Less versatile for urban situations.

They came with the shackles.

 

Would that work with the completely smooth sides on Toyota locks?

The local dealership has helped me out before when my keys broke but that's probably not an option this time. One wheel only has 3/5 lugs. No idea how tire shops can get away with this bullshit.

I shall take a look

Eeew. I should clean my filth
