Section525 - D44 2nd gen. leaves SAS

[section525]

Nah. I haven't touched it for a while now. I am out of town once again.

I am in the process of changing "careers". So everything is sort of on the back burner until after the 28th. Well, actually I guess until Froader and I come back from Texas. So, you might win this battle. I might do a little work to it when I get home next week. Finish reaming some stuff and mount my shocks. But it won't be 4wd until mid August at the earliest.

You guys are both still in Texas I thought it was just a weekend thing.

Right now I'm in Washington. I should be back to California one of these days.

 

[section525]

Although it was 103 degrees out (F), I actually did something. My reamer came in the mail yesterday, so I figure after I ream out the pitman arm and driver's side steering arm, and get some shocks on, it will be streetable again.


So, here's the driver's side shock hoop so far. Tomorrow both should be done and it will be on the roooooad.

Reamers are expensive - how much did it run you?

 

[section525]

Oh $90 to my door.

Paint booth!

all that just to not run f250 towers or did i miss something here....but those are bad ass, different but bad ass

[j602]

Don't those go above a frat house door or something?

F250 towers would push the shock out towards the tire further. Plus they're designed to be bolted on, meaning I would have to weld the piss out of the rounded gaps. This way I can just grind them off if I want to change something down the road. Plus, they're custom.

I ended up not having to leave town tonight.. so I got everything reamed out. Rides a little better with one shock on. Hopefully after the second one goes on tomorrow it will ride like a Caddy.

There was a discussion on shock towers a little while back..

I think the 2nd or 3rd? Ask FROADER. I told Phil I can bring it down for you.

 

[FROADER]

I want to leave my place on the 3rd for TX, so you're welcome to come down early if you want. You can harrass the H.B. girls until we leave.

 

[Stic-o]

We'll have to figure something out, I'll be in vegas that week for work, but maybe you could just drop it off at my dads house.

 

[SkanlaxJMO]

so whats the latest?...

 

[section525]

Got the shocks on.

Now it's time to rebuild/regear the axles. So.. probably after my next big paycheck comes in I can start on that.
