Udown?

Howzit gang,

I will first say thanks for all the good info that you guys provide and also the laughs at some of the funny stuff you guys post. It seems like a pretty tight Ohana you all have here on Oahu. I see everyone gearing up for the peacock flats overnighter. I dig it. Here is my question for anyone who is down.

I really need help installing some parts. I ain't about to pay $400 bucks to 4wheelparts to install cause I don't got it, I spent my money on the parts. I need to have my Bilstein 5100s front and rear along with a set of wheelers 1.5" 3 leaf progressive AAL installed. I have tools, jack stands, hydraulic jack, and beer....lots of beer. I want to learn too. I'm new to the game.

Is anyone down to help a brotha out? It's a 2004 DC prerunner 2x4. I live in Mililani but will go wherever. Mahalo! Lmk gang, I know you can relate. I get parts but no can install. Ayesoos! Bumbai I goin learn!

 

We doing an install Sunday maybe we can do yours to. We have all the tools,knowlede and vehicles...no beer though.lol

 

If you don't jump in on the above, I could possibly help you out... shocks and AAL is pretty standard... Sat is out for me.. I gotta change my own brake rotors and head to a b-day party by 12... swap (for my my brakes) "should" take like 1.5 hr. tops...

 

Sunday mod day! I'm down to drink beers

 

Right on guys! I am very appreciative of your help. I will take you up on your offers.

I will PM you my info so we can coordinate the times. Much mahalo guys!

 

I down to help. Does anybody know how to change out brake lines while we're at it?

 

brake lines are easy...unless the rears at the top are stuck...then it sucks.

invest in some flare-nut wrenches. makes it easier-ish

I'd be down to swing by Sunday, but working till 1500ish...I think all the heavy lifting will be done by then.

 

Hey gang, I decided after talking with opunui that I should get new bushings and top hat for the struts. So maybe next weekend will work better.

Also, does anyone know of coils other than eibach that I could possibly replace mine with? I don't necessarily need the full 3" lift that the eibachs have.

 

Ome 885

 

Can anyone help with install during the week? Or would weekends work better?

 

Also I have a noob question.

What does the [OP] mean?

Thanks B!

 

Im sure weekends work best for just about everyone. Im down if u need a hand.

 

my weekends are hit/miss till mid April.

 

So I got new leaf spring bushings from Wheelers. I installed the 3 leaf add a leafs. It was a bitch to get out the old bushings from the leaf springs. I torched all 4 out. Then I had to sawzall the outer ring on the fronts. Then the new bushings went in smooth for the fronts but was too big for the rear. I had to modify and shave and grind the new rear bushings to fit in the back. I needed to used a vice to press and 3 guys to get it in. Took forever! Then when I went to install the shocks and struts, it was for the 05+ not my 04!!!!! FML!!!! Now I am waiting for Headstrong to send the correct parts so I can gitrdone. Hopefully by Tuesday. FuxkinA!!!!

 

Me too. Although I have a frotn spacer kit that needs to be installed. Let me know. Shoots.
