but you couldn't drive the 20 extra minutes to lucerne. dick.

its not that i couldnt, i just would feel bad passing your ranger in my moms suburban with a drop bracket lift

time to replace my beam pivots up front, and i was wondering if its worth the money to convert them to uniballs? also need someone to mount up my bumpstops up front. and need to rebuild the shocks, since they are leaking again, and need nitrogen. now who in south oc can press out/in pivot bushings, and who has nitrogen i can bum from them? then re arch these springs and go out in the dirt for a little ahha

my old truck was converted to uniballs and i like it, very solid.

FYI: you are not going to be able to get seals for a few weeks.

i have them already though. o rings and all that jazzz

throw a couple bucks in and i can charge your shocks at work. you and i can rebuild them one weekend too, i need to do mine anyways and re-valve at the same time. should take us like 6 days total...

bahahah im thinking like a week or more to do this mac. how much to do the shocks? and you guys are closed the rest of the week right?

yeah we're closed till monday. $5 or 10 will be fine.

if the shocks are leaking around the shaft you need new seal head assemblies. did you order more from FOA? also, if you are running them with no pressure they shaft seals are more likely to leak.

they arent leaking around the shaft, they are leaking out of the side between the body and seal head. im gonna fill them first they arent leaking alot, just a little bit

Who are you going to have do the work?

logan, hit curt up about mounting your bumps and whatnot. he has a race truck.

idk i would also like someone to cut the bungs off my radius arms and weld up new ones. the bungs now failed, and the hiem jammed all the way into them, and the radius hiem is now grinding on the pivot, which is pushing my castor back.
fix my radius arms
weld in my bumps.
tub the rear.
and re arch my springs
ill be pretty fuckin stoked on it then

I can do it

pm a price curt. and how long it would take for the bumps and radius arms. and a price

did you ever fix your beams?

Shit will never get done.

ya beams got fixed, and uniballs installed in the beam ends.

already swapped the new header panel
making exhaust hangers/welding the muffler and everything back together.
gonna take the springs off this week sometime aswell.
ordered seals and everything for my shocks

cough* andrew they are leaking like a mofo cough*

fronts? pics? wonder if the shafts could be damaged from hydro locking like they had been.

Is deaver just doing a simple re-arch of the springs? How much do they charge for that?

Logan if you can get it to Temecula and leave it for a couple days I could get you dialed in.

yes sir the fronts, they are pouring out of the body where we attached the 90* which seems odd cause we sealed them pretty nice, the seal head and the body are wet, and the mount on the beam is covered in the fluid.

ya just the rearch atleast, i think they repaint them and check bushings aswell. 175$ is what they quoted me.
