The truck should get finished this weekend. I will bring it back home on Monday night. Have an appointment to have the windshield installed Tuesday afternoon.

hows it sound? you should make a video!
i bet you cant wait to wheel it

topar · « **Reply #424 on:** May 09, 2007, 05:30:59 AM »

It sounds great. I tried to put a short video on here before with no luck. I got the windshield in now. I have it at my house. I have to set the timing and tune the carb hook up the windshield wipers and some other misc. stuff. We are going wheeling on 5/26-27/07.

Gotta get it finished. I will take pictures of it later today or tomorrow.

NICE WORK

I am going at the end of the month. Some place called Big Boys Play Ground. We will be going the 26th or 27th. If anyone wants to go its in Virginia near I81 and I 64 intersect. This is private property that the guy opens up twice a month to wheelers. I have not been to it yet. My friends have been going for a few months now and love it. They have a man made rock garden a few mud pits and some trails. Anyone want to go let me know and we will make plans.

Has anyone that has done the MC lift noticed their truck leaning to the left? I put the spacer on but it still seems like the truck is leaning to the left. I am wondering if the left spring has settled more than the right.

mine leaned also but once i took it out and broke it in, it seemed to be better.

topar · « **Reply #437 on:** May 10, 2007, 03:46:27 PM »

Thanks Aaron you know mine is just sitting in the yard and looks like its leaning bad. I am hoping it just needs to settle.

I thought mine was real bad also because my driveway slopes to one side and the truck leaned the opposite direction.

My marlin springs lean driver a little and they're already broken in.

82 HiLux · « **Reply #440 on:** May 10, 2007, 10:22:02 PM »

i wonder what the reason for this is? kinda weird they arent the same?

83yota · « **Reply #441 on:** May 10, 2007, 10:37:12 PM »

i would like to know also i am planing on these with my next rig

topar · « **Reply #442 on:** May 11, 2007, 03:36:44 PM »

Mine is still leaning to the left but I have not really driven it. I have maybe 1 mile on it since I finished working on it. I wont get the chance to work on it again until next wed. Then wheel it at the end of the month. Guess I will find out whats up then.

topar · « **Reply #443 on:** May 11, 2007, 05:29:14 PM »

Both of my trucks.

82 HiLux · « **Reply #444 on:** May 12, 2007, 08:19:06 PM »

do you know how lucky you are? you are doing something right to have both of those f***ing badass trucks.

buuuttttttttt the yota should have the 38s

your dodge is awesome is it a turbo diesel or gas? i bet you love paying for the fuel with those 38s on there hahaha. what savage trucks. you are the man, man. very good taste for trucks.

83yota · « **Reply #445 on:** May 12, 2007, 10:03:36 PM »

nice dodge i am a big fan i want a 93 2500 x-cab 12 valve

topar · « **Reply #446 on:** May 14, 2007, 06:50:16 AM »

Thanks. The dodge is a 98, 1500, 360V8 5" Superlift and 3" Body Lift. 38 all terrains. 4.56 gears limited slip in the rear open front. Stage two chip. I will be removing the body lift and dropping back down to 33s or 35s when these tires wear out. Gas cost to much and it will help out a bunch when towing. I get 61/2 MPG when not towing and I can watch the gas gauge drop when towing.

82 HiLux · « **Reply #447 on:** May 14, 2007, 08:21:41 PM »

whos monster is that in the back? that thing would KILL the mud. KILL it.
your truck is awesome. 6 1/2mpg is pretty bad, i get about 10 in my yoder with 33s around town. stupid 22r

82 HiLux · « **Reply #448 on:** May 14, 2007, 08:22:48 PM »

i must say, your dodge dwarfs those 38s.

topar · « **Reply #449 on:** May 15, 2007, 06:17:58 AM »

I used to belong to a club that put on a monster truck show in town. Those were some of the trucks that showed up. Somewhere I have pictures of my truck sitting nose to nose with the Demon monster truck. Well more like nose to axle. Those guys a re pretty cool guys! The club President was a pain in the ass and racist and since my wife is hispanic I couldn't continue to listen to his crap so I left the club.
