North Phoenix Mod Day!

Well I have aged another year and my fantastically hot and amazing wife has ordered me a full KING setup for my truck.

I'm looking for hands and experience with the install of front coil overs and rear shocks and leaf pack,but will settle for a beer assistant. I have a fair amount of tools including a few that are air operated. If anybody else needs a flat work surface, the driveway is quite large too.

Sept 19th is the preliminary day.

Frosty beverages as well as grubbs will be on hand.


One questions before finalizing everything...
Will I need to purchase anything else outside of the basics, meaning a special adjusting spanner (for the KINGS), bushings or brake lines?

Thanks guys,
Hope to see some of you soon.

 

happy belated birthday! i may be able to join you depending on date.
did you get remote resis? may need mounts for them.

 

Yes she got remote reservoirs but standard length to try and avoid the need for ucas.

I'll check and make sure the mounts are sent along.

Thanks. It's looking like the first part of Sept for a day

 

Call dsm. I was able to score TC ucas at a discount because they had a slight scuff during shipping. They might have a pair they can let go cheaper. Like others said, you'll want them.

 

Im working with Micah at the moment, still waiting for everything to finalize

Thanks for the advice. Im super excited

 

get some Stainless Steel brake lines (extended) they fix the Mushy brakes the Taco's have.. and so cheap, plus you probably need to flush your brake fluid anyway.
Plus what everyone else said... get some UCA's so you can align it easily.

 

Big thanks to @iJonny and @05TacoRunner for their hand in helping me blow my load.

Once everything arrives I'll work to get a finalized date.

 

Need to set these here for a moment

 

Well all the parts have arrived...

How about Sept. 19th

Thats a few weeks away

 

kangs

 

I'm in.

 

I love to see this! Coming from SE VA we had meets OFTEN... specially at my place! I may be able to get to meet some of ya'll.

We drove through AZ a couple months ago, and decided we should live there, so we started looking for jobs. We did it! We both have jobs in AZ. My company refused my resignation and is letting me work from home, and my wife got a great job in Northern Scottsdale.

Looking for a rental house:
Fountain Hills, Scottsdale, North Phoenix... She'll be on E. Raintree near 101. We are looking for 4 bedroom, 2 or more car garage or single with large covered parking, in ground pool, and at least some sort of view, and 30 min or less drive. $1800 mos? Need space for mod days!

Also... decided to ship my taco. it's gonna be expensive, but we don't feel like driving 2 across the country. I may need a "friend" to accept delivery of the truck and hold it for a few days for me.

We leave here Sat (29) and head for VA to say goodbyes to daughters. We hope to be in Scottsdale by the 14th. Having our household goods shipped. Woot Woot!

 

just a friendly reminder for next weekend. I'll have some beverages on hand and thinking of pulling a pork for the evening...

 

Im in. I will bring my tools. I have the spanner wrenches I will bring too. Try and get the coils already adjusted tho. They are a pain. Im brining buddy aswell and knows it all. If you get the brake lines I might do mine too. Still havent gotten around to them yet.

 

You going to come over and hang out?

 

I did. the rears only. I got the speed bleeders to aid in making it a bit easier

 

I just use a tube and a water bottle. But cool. Its something I been trying to get to for a while now. Just been sitting In my truck

 

well i thought I was going to simply service the brakes prior to replacing the hardware. Then the project was postponed.
