*******THE LIFT IS ON********

Found a little time and got everything installed and so far so good. Drives pretty straight but still getting an allignment dont tomorrow.


I am picking up my lift tomorrow after work and getting the struts assempled on Saturday.
I could use a little help getting everything put on. Its an OME lift with the Dakar springs. I will have beer and food. If you can make it let me know what your drinking and I will be sure to get you some.
I may start Saturday night so if you want to help then let me know.

What time you starting Sunday? I may be down to help after I go to Tolar in the morning.

I can help around the noonish hour.

Short notice much.......

I will probably start early on Sunday. I am planning to at least take off the wheels and stock front suspension on Saturday night. Not sure how long this will take since I have never tackled anything like this. I am sure I will still be working on this after you check out Tolar. I will PM you phone# if you dont already have it.

 

[balakay]

I know I had it but it may have not made it to my new phone so go ahead and PM it to me. I'll probably be in Tolar until about 1 so I could be up there by 2:15 or so.

Did you get new bushings for your leaf springs? I don't know if the dakars come with them or not.

The bushings should come with the kit but I am going to double check that I have them before I leave there.

I figured I would try to get it on now since I have a wide open Sunday. Dont figure you will come up but I gotta ask if your going to be able to make it.

The Dakars come with Bushings in the front and the rear bushings should be included in the kit... otherwise, sucks to be you. Removing the stock ones is a huge PITA

Plus, my stock ones didn't fit. I'm sure it different for 2nd gens.

If I have to I will steal your idea. The engine hoist was brilliant.

They're supposed to come with the dakars.

 

[AlienXtx]

They come with the front bushings, I had to order the rear separate.

Hope you have a spring compressor.

A friend of mine is going to assemble the struts at his shop on Saturday.

 

[AlienXtx]

Sweet, I would let you use mine but......

 

[taco4x4rar]

You need any tools?

I don't think unless I need more than basic hand tools. Are you going to be able to make it? I have some coors light and the moutains are blue.
