Thank you for that nice compliment! AC is nice, but sure was a pain to install! You have a really nice truck too!;)

Denee,
Lookin' good, girl! Remind me again, how many inches is your axle dropped and what did you use for springs up front? If I stay with my straight axle I'd want it to come out about like yours. Lower but not too low - heresy I know around this board! lol. |

...and guys worry about the scrub line!
Like this, your scrub line runs right through your oil pan, tranny pan and 3rd member! |
Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Hey Dan! I went with the stock axle which was overhauled by Sid@dropped axles, and I bought the 2 leaf posie springs from him as well. As for how much these springs dropped the axle? supposedly it was about 3" from stock, but I have nothing to compare to. However, I did speak with Sid not long ago asking about dropping the axle to get the truck a little lower, but passed on the idea. I have no desire to do anything else to the suspension. I'm very pleased with the ride!:metal:

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
oh c'mon, don't be chickens!!! I dropped mine almost 8 inches from stock ride height if you include the rims and tires and our roads up here are way worse and I can drive damn near anywhere I would want to with it.
What did I do with my truck? The wife and I cruised like teenagers http://i1200.photobucket.com/albums/...psc35e8d6a.jpg |
Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
I want my truck lower, I've just grown up enough to not want to deal with approaching driveways and speed bumps at an angle. Not worrying about some pothole I didn't see until the last moment. Screw all that BS. I want my truck to ride decent, look cool and NOT be a pain in my a$$.
If that makes me "old" then I'm old and I don't give a rip. (Now, where are my Velcro tennis shoes, my gigantic black plastic sunglasses to put over my regular glasses, and my black socks to wear with my Bermuda shorts?! lol) |
Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Double post, sorry.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
You know Mike, there is a striking resemblance between your truck and Denee's!
Kissing cousins? |
Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Heresy I say. Heresy.
I like mine low when I'm parked. As for driving I just sit-up the bags and away I go. No worries about potholes here, if the roads are rough I just add more air. My only worry is blowing a bag or line. Then I'm screwed...... Posted via Mobile Device |

Completed a brake job, after ordering what I thought I needed from LMC and three trips to different parts stores I got them done. I had hoped to rebuild my wheel cylinders but once I got them apart they not rebuild able. If anybody needs wheel cylinder repair kits PM me know, bought them for a 51 gmc, not sure what all they will fit. Support your locally owned parts store, one close to me had all four on the shelf and at a great deal. The local flaps couldn't even look them up. Almost ready to go down the road.

I'm planning to drive mine to work as soon as it cools off a bit. I currently work in West L.A. Land of the truly high maintenance. There are Rolls, Fiskars, Mercedes out the ying yang in my parking lot. I don't EXPECT to "wow the masses" - unless they collectively feel sorry for me! Lol. Posted via Mobile Device |

I think it was Wow it's 106 outside and he doesn't have AIR CONDITIONING.
Or WOW why does that thing make so much noise? or WOW Why does that truck sit low in the front? Or WOW why does that truck peal out on every light change? Or WOW that truck is too old I think that kind of wow |
Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Maybe it was, "Wow, I thought he made more money than that!" ha ha ha.
