Northern Virginia Roll Call

Saw you in Leesburg on Friday night @fatfurious2

 

Sweet! Sorry if i didnt see you. I just had Lasik on Thursday, and couldn't see anything. And was kind of on a mission, because my mom broke down in PA and my dad and I were going up there to drop of another car to her, so she could get to NY. It was a long night

 

No sweat man. I wasn't in my truck. I was walking with my wife and she said "oh, that's a cool taco," and I looked up and saw your truck driving by.

 

Got my tires delivered and the dummies at tire rack sent me 2 p rated and 2 lt rated tires.

 

That's an interesting combination. Two different warehouses? Either that, or their inventory must be a joke.

 

Were the old ones OME shocks? Did you swap out anything else besides the shocks? Im guessing that lots to learn is next on the list to get his rear done, or did you two knock that out already?

Yeh, I was pissed. I am thinking two different warehouses, because there were 2 different tracking numbers assigned. And now they want to put a hold on my credit card for $200 while they wait to receive the wrong tires they sent back, and then they will release the hold and send me the new ones. If their prices weren't so damn good, I would be saying I won't be using tire rack again.

 

I used DTD to get my ST Maxx's. They had a coupon for get $100 off a $400 purchase on their ebay store, so I bought two sets of two, and got my tires for $600.

 

I dont use tire rack because they charge for shipping. I usually use discount tire because of free shipping. But there are others with free shipping

 

They don't carry ST Maxx anymore!
Or have that deal for them on ebay

 

The rear OMEs are sitting in my garage. Along with @Lots2Learn58 AllPro leafs. Hoping to get them installed on 10/8.

Im going to attempt the fronts now. Shouldn't be too bad by myself. Just heavy

 

After their rebate I will have gotten a set of Kumho's Road Venture ATs for less than $350. Even after shipping, this still ended up being the best deal.

 

Im actually looking to try to install some brake lines that weekend. I can def look to help out with the fronts, what are you replacing the fronts with? For some reason I thought you already had coils? So did you get lots to learn's leafs?

No, i have Dakars. Installing the OMEs and AllPros on Lots2learn truck. And possibly rear brake lines on both.

 

I have Icon 2.5s with resi. Trying to install now. 30 min in, almost have the drivers side OME off

 

Looks like I am going to have to get in on that then! Nice man, getting the sway bar is really the hardest part. I hope you have atleast two good jacks!

Coot

 

I dont have a sway bar.

 

Well shit then it should be cake!
