That is a pretty pic. What is happening to the old ones?

 

[Silverback]

I'll sell them. They are fine.. just time for new ones.

 

[Taco Loco]

Yes.. 2.5's all around. 700# coils

Sweet

 

[bakerla]

Cool down? You going to wait until February?

Think he was just waiting for the garage AC to cool off the garage first.

 

[Silverback]

Might have to.. I think I missed my window of opportunity. I got those two 6' medium ass fans out there now and I think if I can get it blown apart on Friday night (that shouldn't take too long) then on Saturday morning I can start reassembly and be done before it gets hot. Sounds good anyways.

I got my fronts swapped out in exactly 1 hour the other day. It helps that I have done about 10 front suspensions between mine and friends. 14mm, 17mm, 19mm, and 23mm for the LCA is all you should need.

Oh I'm not worried about doing it... I know its very easy. My only "worry" is that the new reservoir mounts use the sway bar mounts... which I haven't used in years and don't have bolts too. So I'll have to dig up something.

Nice!

Yeah, I got lucky and found my bolts in a box in my parts pile. I thought the same thing "Oh shit!"

I have extra bolts + relocation mounts with bolts I'm not using. They are red and from swayaway but will work. They are yours if you need them.

 

[Silverback]

Thanks man! Any chance you can just get the size of them (thread pitch and length). I can probably get them local.

No problem, so long as remember tonight when I get home. Worst case have Roger remind me via text

 

[Silverback]

I just called Toyota here in town and they can have them tomorrow and they are $1.99 a pop. Not bad IMO. So I went ahead and ordered them. Thanks anyhow Boyd.

Yea, snail mail would of cost more and taken longer. Good find.

 

[Silverback]

Very true. I figured they would say "next week" or something. Shocked it was tomorrow.

 

[Silverback]

Washed the Taco for the first time in... well I don't know when. Needed to get it clean before I pull the suspension off it. It needs a clay bar and some wax badly!!

Shocks cleaned up nicely.

 

[balakay]

How did you manage to never destroy those lower shock mounts? Seems like they'd be a common issue for most people hanging down like that.

 

[TacoXpo]

Yeah, they did. I know you travel at sub sonic but how bad was your passenger side shaft? Mine looked like it had been sandblasted... and, I guess it had been.
