What have you done to your ride lately?

[thekidcatcher]

Jesus you could build a couple with 80 foot I would imagine

 

[Silverback]

Its for more than just a bed cage. I plan to buy some more sometime soon to start on the trail rig.

 

[thekidcatcher]

Gotcha! Man I have missed wheeling and wrenching. Work and LSAT studying has been keeping me busy as shit. Test is the 8th though so I will have some time for fun after that.

 

[Silverback]

Good luck man. Kick its ass!

 

[thekidcatcher]

I'm hoping to! Feel good about it

I've had the same crappy luck with the aftermarket lights. I don't know if sillycone is the best but those fuckers I bought fogged up on the first humid day. I may put my oem ones back on and do the recall deal!

 

[thekidcatcher]

My 3rd set hasnt fogged at all. The others did only slightly

He's referring to the inside fogging I believe.

That's what I was talking about.

Hoping to install my new Dakars this morning. . Oh yeah, going to clean up all the rust (from 70 mph stones) and replace my driveshaft with a new one. Thank God for factory race spares - only problem was that it was for a manual Trans so I had to have it shortened (insert comment here).

 

[Silverback]

So you are going to short stroke your manual shaft?

 

[Silverback]

Added some lights to the trail rig. Had to bypass the relay to test them out. Just some cheapo Amazon led's. But I'll swap in a new relay this weekend so the switch works.

No but after I shortened it I tried to add it to mine.

Nice.

One other thing. I figured the Dakar's would have saged a bit. Only 3/8" difference in ht. I guess they were not all pro quality! Anywho, I thought they would have sagged more. I'm hoping Tardwhirl will give me more than half of what I paid for the new ones. Has anyone ever run the extra ARB leafs?

 

[Silverback]

I have the Dakar extra leaf. d29. Or something like that. No sag.

 

[TacoXpo]

I'm not sure if I want to put it in. I'm already at 39" with the RTT on. How do you install it?

 

[TacoXpo]

Third worst bushing...

 

[thekidcatcher]

You just take apart the leaf pack by taking out the center pin, slide it in, then tighten it back down. I used C clamps to pull them back together.

Add another 3/4"-1" of lift with the extra leaf. I have it and love it.

 

[TacoXpo]

Cool thanks. I guess I should try them.
