Raleigh North Carolina and surrounding areas

Wish you guys could do that trip a week or two earlier, 22nd is my anniversary weekend.

 

We're going 25th or 26th of June for a day trip

 

True. I also come up to charllotte alot bc my in laws are up there so I can bring them up there when we come up if you can wait like a few weeks.?

 

I can wait a few weeks. I'll hold off my alignment til then.

 

Would love to come, but I will be kayaking/camping that weekend. If the weather looks sketchy I will be down that way for sure.

 

@Blkvoodoo, so here's some numbers I gathered. Whatcha think of this @T4RH33L for rear leafs lol? Debating going with the full new 4 leaf pack or pulling a leaf out of it or the 3leaf AAL..

Current setup based on stock 2+1 leaf pack:
Toyo Main------------ 3/8"
Chevy(3/4ton)------- 3/8"
Wheelers 3lead AAL-- 3/4"
Overload------------- 5/8"
Axle Spring perch---- 3/8"
Axle------------------ 3-1/4"
---- 6.125" and I have 7" ubolts

New Full 3+1 leaf pack:
Toyo Main------------ 3/8"
Chevy(3/4ton)------- 3/8"
Toyo 2--------------- 3/8"
Toyo 3--------------- 3/8"
Wheelers 3lead AAL-- 3/4"
Overload------------- 5/8"
Axle Spring perch---- 3/8"
Axle------------------ 3-1/4"
---- 8.125" and I figure I would need 9" ubolts

 

Hmm, the least UPS could have done is turn on my GPS tracker so I know where it's at.. UPS says it's scheduled for delivery today but the UPS truck has already come by..

 

Dude, my package from UPS has been out for delivery for 12 hours!!!

 

are you flipping u-bolts so nuts and plates are on top of pack ?

If you're not, NOW would be a good time to do that, you gain clearance under axle and one less thing to grab rocks on either side.

 

is my math off ? or yours ? something missing ?

 

Yea flipping ubolts. Checking math again.. Calculating.... Calculating... Looks like yours is. I must've added something more somewhere. Though the current ubolts are 7". So...7-5.75=1.25 and 6.25+1.25=7.5...http://www.stengelbros.net/5U-286R-...und-U-bolt-with-nuts-and-washers_p_13627.html

 

mT

mY U bolt flip came in yesterday

 

My flip plates are courtesy of @Mothman. Now do I use all the leafs or take out a couple lol.

 

are you looking for lift or load carrying ability ? more leaves could possibly make it ride like a truck......

 

Idk really. The 3/4ton Chevy leaf gives all the load capacity needed, and also makes it ride like a tank.

 

@Sandman614 @T4RH33L , interest in diff swap tomorrow ? supposed to be cooler than last week for sure

anyone else ?

you could bring @sphinxbccp jug too

 

well, you're gaining lift just adding leaves, but then adding spring rate by also adding leaves

if its harsh now, maybe not so many ?

 

Im installing some All Pro Expos tomarow to see what i think
