Tennessee Tundra Owners

Anyone else refresh UPS tracking every 10 minutes in hopes that they suddenly figured out time travel?

 

I did toytec eibach with shackles at 1.5”... haven’t done control arms yet, we’ll see how it aligns.





Rubbing the front liner so gotta push that in, but it doesn’t look like I’m going to have to do body mount chop.

 

Every single time!

 

That's awesome! What size tires and offset on the wheels? The black rhinos I got have a +12 offset and I decided to go bigger diameter on the tire and sacrifice a bit of width.

 

Bro, pay the extra cash and go sdhq. You WILL NOT regret it. Quality is ridiculous.

 

Yeah I'm definitely at like a 95% on the SDHQ sliders. Would like to see them on someone else's truck first to know if I'll like them...I need to get out to one of our meetups and see what else I can spend my money on

 

35x12.50 on fuel assaults with an offset of +20.

 

Trail time!!!!

 

I see ya bro!!! LEGIT!

 

Lol c'mon out bro!!!

 

@Erichudgins, what you think??? New Beadlocks???

 

Lol those are siiiiiick I'd rock the crap outta those lol

 

Silly question. What’s the deal with bead locks? They more heavy duty for wheeling or what?

 

Yea.. essentially they keep from rolling the bead of the tire off the rim in extreme situations.

 

Thanks man. It’s gonna take me a few days to get the front liner bent and trimmed. Missing my truck right now.

 

What a difference. Rubbing pretty bad up front at full lock and in reverse more. I don’t think it’s a big problem but definitely need to do something about it.

What’s the standard remedy for this? Anyone nearby want to help a newbie lol?

 

That's called a cab chop boss, at least a minor one maybe. Should just need to relocate the plastic up front and boom.

 

That’s crazy. Because I’m not rubbing the back at all on 35’s, no cab mount or anything. I’m rubbing the front pretty bad. Hoping I can roll the front liner and push it in and I’ll be good.

I have cab mount chop plates i’d give you if I don’t need them, but I don’t know how long you’re willing to wait...

 

Again, looks VERY nice? You ready for some trails now??! @Erichudgins @Kh328 how we looking for a lil get together?

 

Hey hattori......how much will you guys charge to do UCA/LCA bushing replacements? thats next on my list of "gotta do's". 05 DC. Plus, despite installing the Eibach 2.5 lift on the front i'm still scrubbing :-/

need some advice.

 

I'm ready when yall are!

 

When you thinking??!!

 

Thats a bummer man. It's crazy you think that every truck would be the same but its definitely not. I know it sounds like a huge deal but a cab mount chop is really minor. A good shop can do it and youd never notice it if they didnt tell you they did it. Just go ahead and plan for it. Extra piece of mind especially offroad.

 

Oh maybe I was causing confusion in what I was trying to say. My rubbing is on the bumper side when the wheels are turned at almost 100%. It happens more when I’m reversing. The cab side of the tires have no rub so I should be good on the chop, right?

Edit: my pictures are of the rubbing against the bumper side

 

Ahhhh lol gotcha!! Yea you should be! Do you have a heat gun?

 

Heat gun...check!!

Wait, do I have to take these heavy ass things off and put them back on later again??? Not sure what muscles are needed to awkwardly lift 115lbs two inches, but damn that was rough. The last one took everything I had lol

No judging!

 

Lol you should be able to leave em on! I just heated the front lines and used a mag light handle and pushed them forward!! Easy peasy

 

I don't work there anymore, but typically BJ's are 55ea if they are serviceable. Which UCA do you have? Are the lowers stock still?

 

How about next Saturday? I'm gonna see if my wife will bring the GX out!

 

If you can do that afternoon I'm in.. I have to work that morning for a few hours
