*sigh. The whole process took a toll on me physically and emotionally.

Got it done in about 10 hours total. Front was a bee-otch. Rear took me seriously 30 minutes.

Pics soon. Now I gotta do a cv axle
 
Yeah I got busy and forgot to keep drinking. Had to take a break for the night and finish the next day with a spring compressor. Hardest part was putting the damn strut back in.

Now I have to do a cv axle. I've found a DIY for 3rd gens. I'm assuming its very similar for 4th gen.

Anyone in Utah that wants to help? Lol

I'm willing, depending on what day. Do you have tools and a place to work?
 
Yeah. Two car garage, plenty of tools (once I replace a 5/8 adaptor I broke during the lift install) 6 foot piece of steel pipe for leverage on the breaker bar.

Beer (if you're old enough lol) and lunch of your choice.

I'm off Saturday Sunday and Monday. Wife wanted to go wheeling this weekend again, so I'm hoping for Saturday, but beggars can't be choosers.......

Actually I will just pm you.

Where you liking at going wheeling on Sunday? And if you don't get it done by Sunday let me know. That is my day off.
 
Last week we tried to go to Farmington canyon but it was closed. So we took side streets to centerville and hopped on the shoreline trail/firebreak road and tool that to the centerville atv park then exited ont Davis and 900 n in bountiful.

So I'm thinking of just going to the bountiful b and heading up from there and just exploring.

I need to do research on some places to go.

And when I say wheeling, it may not be considered wheeling to you guys, but there were some parts on the last trail that seemed to require a fairly capable vehicle.

Yeah I guess clarification of what wheeling would be would be good. Wheeling to me is little Moab/ snakes/AF canyon type stuff.
 
Yeah. I'm new to 4x4 so I've got a lot to learn. All I know is I had fun doing what I did, and the wife paid for the lift because I told her we can go up the mountain and have a picnic every weekend.
 
There's definitely some spots above Bountiful where you wouldn't want to take a passenger car, but it's pretty mild for the most part. It's a good area to explore though.

We'll get you on some fun stuff this summer once the snow clears. :)

Hopefully you guys do some morning trips so I can go. My only day off now is Sunday through Tuesday. And I now work from 1pm to 12 am or later
 
Is there anyone who lives in Cache Valley? As much fun as it is to drive to Salt Lake, it's not very economical on my college budget.
