Need Help Installing Lift

I really want to come, but unless I can find front shocks, a tundra isolator, and my spacer kit all shipped to me in the next 4 days...I cant make it...:( hopefully I can take you guys up on helping me sometime in the near future?
 
Yeah that's fine since you weren't planning on working on your truck. I can pick you up somewhere, maybe your GF's house?

Well I am hoping to have my bumper on(to show off) and want to have my truck in case I need to go somewhere. I was thinking of just following you there.
 
Ya Brian he wants to show off his bumper and I want to see it.:jump:

So I got a new sticker today.:banana:

Not going to be able to make it..

My dad ended up having a floating off day for this saturday and he wants to go fishing :fishing:

I was really looking forward to this! Sorry to have to cut out so close to the date...


On the bright side... This will be an opprotunity to get my truck dirty
 
Wow looks like it is going to be more of a BBQ hang out session instead of a Wrenching party. At least two people will get some stuff done on their trucks and will have 3 good looking Runners sitting together.

Family first.

Pikeman I will go buy dealerships today and see if I can have upper and lower ball joints for Sat that way we will have wrenching to do.
 
well crap, if it was not "daddy" weekend with my kids, i'd show up and run some beads with the welder. Having welded on nuke submarines and the destroyer i was on, welding was what passed my time.

Funny you say that, I'm doing my LBJs on Friday. The uppers are still in very good shape (only ~ a year and a half old), but my lowers are already shot (<1 year old Moogs.. booo Moog.. booo!) and they have started to make some pretty bad popping noises around tight turns. I would bring them down and do em on Saturday, but they look and sound so bad, I don't want to risk them breaking on the 2 hour drive down there (especially if one broke while I was changing lanes at 65 on the freeway!).

I got lifetime warranty Napa LBJs for $83.99 each. The dealerships around here wanted $107 and had to special order them. In this case I think it's worth it not going OEM since they are quick and easy to R&R so if the Napa ones wear fast, I'll just swap em out for a free set.
 
Just found 75w90 inside my rear rims. Looks like I'll be in my own garage with seal duty this weekend. Sorry guys.:ybrick:

Yeah, I drove around for about 6 months on a leaky rear seal. Come over and we'll help ya!
 
Well you guys aren't too bad a bunch, to say the least. You can count me in as 4Runner #5 at 10am. I do need to be back in Long Beach by 2:30pm though...

I have the tools (minus the torque wrench and drifter's seal drivers) to do the job and have read the seal replacement threads a few times over. :bigok:

Hoping to add my 4runner to the list and help out with what I can.
I can bring a few tools and something to throw on the BBQ.

Would it be a pain to weld some rear lower control arm skids?

Thanks,
Brad
