in a minute. dropped my shocks, 8.8, and hardware off with brandon for the cantilever. he has a ranger there to use for mock up, then final install will be done one weekend soon. also in a new development, my front springs are so sagged out i have started to hit the bump stops as i go over the speed bumps in my work parking lot. sikkkk

subscribed....... "Canti pics! Canti pics! Canti pics!" (simulated croud chant)

**doyouquaxu** · 07-20-2010, 12:42 PM

yeah vince, i'm stoked on those. they're going to be fricken sweet when i finally get LT.

eric, it's started, but brandon has to finish up gil's frontier build, and a chevy kit too. i'm hoping it will be done the last weekend of this month so that the first week of august i can have it for my trip to yosemite, but if not then the night race. no big, i got some old bilstein 5100's from a friend that i traded a 30 rack for. brandon has the shocks, my 8.8, and all the necessary hardware so when it comes time for install it should take about a day.

also, i bought one of the demo rrp350 intercoms that rugged has in the classifieds right now, and 2 demo behind the head headsets

**RCMracer74** · 07-21-2010, 04:47 PM

ok well we will need work in progress photos when brandon starts in then,
cant just sit and wait for 2 weeks for finished pics haha

well i'm glad you liked them enough to do the same. i'm thinking of switching it up to a gloss white, if you care to repaint yours to match lol

White's too much color for me, sorry lol.

**doyouquaxu** · 07-22-2010, 01:06 PM

got this yesterday, and installed it last night. theres a hole drilled so all the wires run through the console, and the wires for the headsets come out on either side of the console right by the seat belt buckles. headsets are the behind the head type, and super comfortable. now i just need a radio...

**Alon** · 07-22-2010, 01:28 PM

Why did you need an intercom? Is your truck too loud to just talk to the passenger normally?

**doyouquaxu** · 07-22-2010, 10:32 PM

my truck rattles like a mother fucker, actually. a lot of the plastic interior pieces are loose and rattle, and my dash rattles/squeaks. i also removed a lot of the sound deadening under the carpet since started to mold after my heater core died and leaked. plus my uca bushings have gotten exponentially worse since you last saw my truck too. it's one of those things that's on the list of things to get, so why not pick one up when i can save some cash.

**Travisfab** · 07-22-2010, 10:36 PM

Adds instant race/chase status too!

**67Cummins** · 07-22-2010, 10:49 PM

Naw you need switches for that, switches = bitches.

**doyouquaxu** · 07-22-2010, 11:10 PM

i have two, one on either side of the radio. they light up, but only one actually does something for now.

**Travisfab** · 07-22-2010, 11:16 PM

Example:

**doyouquaxu** · 07-22-2010, 11:26 PM

holy hell... maybe one day. i wanna make something like this, but for some small gauges and enough switches/ room for switches for what i need now and then in the future. pic is yellowranger's, posted in updated pics right now

**67Cummins** · 07-22-2010, 11:39 PM

Is that a CB I see on the passenger side?

**doyouquaxu** · 07-23-2010, 04:20 PM

indeed. mainly used for the PA, I don't even have the antenna hooked up right now.

**redsilvy** · 07-27-2010, 12:11 AM
