GFI and I were bored today so we decided to SOA my cruiser. Started at 4:00pm and finished the rear by 9:00pm including making the mounts and eating a cheap lunch @ quiznos

Tomorrow i plan to install the shackle reversal GFI made that includes 4 in of lift

i don't think the 4in will be enough to match the 6.5 in rear and might install some 2.5 in lifted leafs in front so it matches.

so who wants to cut me a deal on 35's :flipoff2:

meals at quiznos are Never cheap! ;)

Pics bitch.

i'll have em tonight, slut :flipoff2:

btw it is on 28's rear and 31's front right now so watch out for the bling bling

also what shocks (p/n) did you guys buy that are the right length. I have some off an f150 but they are way too long

cool, you went and got it all muddy....

that's from heeella days ago.

self proclaimed ultimate suspension and frame design guru does own SOA rear. :eek:

EXCLUSIVE!!

WOW!!! TRD actually got his ass in gear for once! Have fun at the 'con if you go. Watch out for those two big bowls.:flipoff2:

Kevo

i don't claim to know anything :flipoff2:

i am selling the cruiser and i think spending time to do 4-link and build it would only decrease the value and increase the time till i can sell it.

I did do shackle reversal for safer handling characteristics though, just in case you were interested :flipoff2:

i have pics but they are on my friends camera and it is out of batteries. I'll post em after the 4th

oh and it is still not done, i need to lift the front 2.5 more inches and get new shocks and brake lines

This post is worthless without pics (I need that damn picture)

So i just got it up on 35's and it looks good but needs a little more lift in the front

I'll post pics in a couple years :flipoff2:

did you relocate the shackles in the rear. Might be worthwhile instead of raising the front.

You will lose about an inch in the back

arndog

i assume you mean the rear rear shackles, i did not touch those and have never heard of a mod for them other than fj55 springs.

I need shocks and front springs and it is off to auto trader then ebay :mad:

the problem is the pics are on my friends digital and it ran out of batteries. Plus he needs to take the almost finished pics. it still needs some front springs and shocks all around

go back to school and learn to spell ;) :flipoff2:

so tonight i finished the brakes and GFI helped me finish the drag link. So we took it out for a drive. It drives great but still needs some finishing touches. Hope to have it totally done within 2 weeks and sold within 3. Then i can start my camaro and sell it too.

go back to school and learn to spell

yaaa.....I'll go back to school just as soon as you find a job you lazy slob

your website is slow and there was no pornani :(

that is because it is a school server with very little space. It is slow b/c you are downloading the whole pic when you look at the thumb nails. I did that b/c of the limited space

Hey TRD, your rig is sweet, not. :flipoff2: No wonder you never cruise it around. Put it back in the garage and forget about it. Or you could just let me drive over it. J/K, looks good. B

it wont be anywhere as sweet as your truck while i own it but then again there arn't that many trucks as sweet as yours.

Wait till my next rig. When i get it done 10 years from now it will be sweet, i gaurantee it :flipoff2:

have you seen gregs cruiser? i don't think you could drive over it
:eek: :D
