squint0241's Oahu Build

How much do them puppies run?

 

$1500... Not cheap

 

Nice set, is Santa doing the install also.

 

Yes... Easy install. Big bolts... New alignment.

 

Big thanks to bullaculla for the assist. His expertise at removing steer stops was instrumental in getting these pieced together. I really like that these are stainless and greasable and the build quality is spot on. Now for another alignment

 

Where do you go, to get all the resent frequent visits of alignment done?

 

Island brake and alignment in Aiea. They're the best imo.

 

How is their schedule? Are they busy or is it first come first serve basis?

 

I used them for my 82 Ford Bronco.They said there were no specs for the work I did. They did a great job. This was maybe 18 years ago. Did you get their punch card. You should be able to get a free alignment soon.

 

It's def by appointment, and I'm guessing it depends on their load. Usually within a day you can get in

 

Punch card?? I'll have to see about that

 

Broke in my DeWalt 18V grease gun today. I needed this a long time ago..

I added a "Lock-N-Lube" connector to replace the original shitty twist connector which is a PITA when it's greasy and ur trying to connect/disconnect the damn thing from the zerk fitting. The whole lube process is fast and effortless now except for squeezing the trigger.. The only issue I had was the Lock-N-Lube tip would not attach to the forward most zerk on the front shaft (space is too tight..). I had to change to the twist connector since the barrel diameter is smaller and fits into the small space. Oh well...can't win them all.. For those that have been remiss in lubing all the joints...I highly recommend you check them out! The initial pump brought out a thin dark black, watery goo of old broken down grease from the joints.. Nothing but clean Red Moly in there now..



Tight fit with the Lock-N-Lube tip...but she fit...


Gobs of Red Moly goodness oozing out!

 

I am dealing with the same issue. Perfect timing, will look into the lock and lube. Where did you pick it up?

 

Lock-N-Lube can be found on Amazon. I ordered the DeWalt Grease gun from Lowes online. Amazon has, but won't ship to Hawaii. Lowes..same price and free shipping..

 

Can I just come over there and borrow yours???

 

Pro eagle mounted.

 

Swapped the McMasters edge trim for something a little more appealing and beefier from Trail Toys. Tire rotation went well with the new impact gun...

Before:



After...


New Impact gun..



Tire Rotation...

 

Awesome build! I went through the whole thread this morning. I was curious where you relocated the winch solenoid to and how did you mount it? My apologies if you said and I missed it.
