The Florida Panhandle and Surrounding Area Tacos Thread Thing

I helped install the ARB on my 1st gen and it was doable with a couple extra hands. I installed my all pro rear on my current truck by myself. Used a combo of pallets to prop it on, ratchet straps to hold it and some beer for motivation. Would have been easier with another person for help, but doable solo. The front is heavier and you need at least 1 more person to put it on, unless you have access to something to support its weight while you line it up. I would rather put it on myself with some help over paying someone else to install it.

 

Awesome, thanks for the input guys. I suppose I'd rather spend money on beer than on someone installing it. Hopefully it gets here soon, I've been waiting for a while now! I'll be sure to post pictures when it's all installed. I have access to an engine hoist so I may go that route. I'm just worried it's going to be crooked and my expensive bumper looks shitty. I guess I'll go slow on the cervesas until I'm finished so it doesn't look straight while intoxicated and crooked sober!!

 

Dude, bring it to my place, I can help you get it installed, DO NOT go to restylers. They are worthless idiots the bumper will lineup fine lol, eddys shit is awesome. I actually need to take mine off to touch it up with paint and bash my mounting plate back straight. By the time you get the bumper the 80 should be good to go as well.

Gonna have to spend abother $150 on a rear axle rebuild kit and get two new pinion seals for the front and rear

 

I eventually want to go with retro fit projectors

 

Don't think I'll ever go to LED headlights. Definitely won't go HID unless I retrofit but that's highly unlikely. Halogens have proved to be way more reliable than all the HIDs and LED s I've seen

 

It's not!!!

 

You finished it???

 

The rear diff yeah, that took like 20 minutes lol. I need help with trams and transfer case

 

a tram?

 

Ohhhhh. I already did my rear diff and was wanting to do the trans and transfer, but havent gotten around to it.

 

Real funny.... Lol but anyone wanna help with the trans and transfer case?

 

Guess who just got these!!

 

Hmmmm, was it @Alfuh?????

 

hell no lol, I wouldnt buy non extended travel coilovers lol

 

Guess we all can't be as cool as you

 

lol, there's like no price difference though between the 2 XD

 

@Alfuh so you're saying these are the 12" and not the 14s

 

Uhh what? The extended travel coilovers from what I know have a longer bottom shaf and the standard travel should look like that. I mean I honestly don't know....I could be wrong as those coilovers look different than the ones I'm looking at

 

Booooooo
