And so it begins...

[Trail X]

Looks like your PS cooler came undone on the pass side.

[DirtyBacon04]

Yea, it did. I made a trailfix using the metal rings from a notepad. But i just resecured it with some stainless steel ties. It aint goin nowhere.

This is unrelated, but its a fun vid i made.

Ahhhhhh, just subscribed to your videos. Be aware that doing donuts is notoriously risky for our power steering pump shafts. They snap very easily.

Never saw somebody more needing of a lift kit to continue their adventure......

Just saw this thread. I am literally 2 miles from Camp Pendleton on North River Road. Sounds like we have three north county people which should be enough for a meet!!

Make sure you let me know your days off, Nick. Lift install some weekend soon as Michael gets the parts.

Edit: Michael - note that Nick is a fluffier older fart than me with grayer hair. {NOT!}

Sounds good. I am off every other saturday including this one coming up, but have plans this saturday. I may have a partial body lift for him to buy if he wants...

Yea, i'm going to order those z71 springs today, bill. Hopefully they'll be in by this weekend, i dont have my hopes too high though

Older than Bill? That shouldnt be hard. You look like you're barely pushing 30, you young devil you.

Oh nick, i know. The freak-o's come out at dusk.

He may be barely pushing 30 but I just turned 21.

[The Roadie]

I'm older than both of ya .... put together! Actually my daughter is older than each of you.

[navigator]

yeah, Bill is an old fart, but full of knowledge like most old farts.

[DirtyBacon04]

Hey, bill!
Just go the parts in for the lift, and the Z71 springs are en route. Won that auction at $37! But then it was $35 for shipping
I was wondering if this grille guard ( http://www.autoanything.com/grille-guards/61A2507A0A0A2389859.aspx ) would interfere with the installation of the rad skid plate.
Thanks Sir!

It won't interfere, but it'll defeat the purpose of removing your plastic bumper, and will reduce clearance by ~2.5" compared to the stock plastic bumper...

Quite literally, for the $350 that that show piece costs, you can get a bumper, and be able to get extracted (shackle mounts), and for $50 more than that, you can have a 2" receiver for a winch...

Are you referring to the bumpers that you produce?

I do believe he is.

[DirtyBacon04]

Very well. I'll take one... Weld some gnarley spikes on it too... to i can ram into mall cruisers

[djthumper]

I just like to torment the mall cruisers around here. They are too clean!

[The Roadie]

I'm cleaning the garage for real to locate all my tools and put the rear seat platform back in today if you want to start putting anything together. Did you get new front shocks? Anyway, you have my number.....

[DirtyBacon04]

Finallly!! I am parts complete for my lift! UPS tried to hide my shocks... but i engaged in UPS ninja training back in my youth and was able to tactically aquire my parts. No more lowridin for this TB.
