Thread: Chalo's 06 silvy

You can just buy the solid alignment cams and tack them in place and call it good.

I was scared of the alignment issue and Brandon said it should be okay so I hope so. I plan on eventually running 2.0 bumps up front we will see.



Picked up some Deavers!
THE TEAR DOWN BEGINS!!

should just have them cut the uppers and put heims. if i still had my kit thats the way i would go.
ill try and get pics of my upper mounts so you can see. and maybe what pat said will work.

Maybe first I'm going to give it a shot.

So I'm trying to set up the rear shocks how do I go about doing this I'm mounting them to the axle?

I have the deavers installed with all new Hardware the shackles are temporary and the hoops are getting mocked up. Im waiting for the welder to get here so I'm starting to tear up the front end. The glass was so poorly installed its insane!!!

very nice tony. keep up the good work.

What the hell where have you been?

long story bud, if you want, txt me and ill tell you.

nice ovaled holes lmao. i had to fix a bagged truck down here who had lower holes egged out so bad the lower would move an inch, sucked ass.

Cut out that sweet support and I found some wheel spacers and recieved straps from Poly.

That's why I don't buy stockers with glass because they have usually been run hard

Got a few things done got the rear shock hoops welded up. They where originally supposed to be bolt on but I got lazy and said burn it!


Then finally got a plasma to m place and cut the upper arm stops and cut a hole in the coil bucket. Also cycled the suspension trying to figure out where to mount the limit straps and such.

Got the shock mounts welded up and sanded down. Painted the frame, arms, spindles, calipers, tierods, and rotors. Finally getting this thing all done for now. Just waiting on brakelines.

You welded then sanded the welds?

plans for 33s or 35s?
did brandon move the tire forward at all?

I didnt sand any welds. We plan on running 35s. Brandon didnt mention anything about moving the wheels forward.

well u should ask if he cycled it with 35s or 33s because the problem i had was the tires would rub on the cab when i would turn. i had to either. cut and plate the cab or run 33s becuase bms didnt move it forward like lt kits do.

We tried with bald 37s and turned it at full bump. It wasnt close to rubbing. You also got to think its 4.5 inches wider per side.
