Took Some New Pics of the Truck Today

That can be one of my winter projects to keep me busy until spring rolls around again and I can do some more big mods.

I did it..........4 times? (the ******** kept on squeaking)

you can do it in about an hour.........less once you have done it a few times!

 

[Off_Road_Teacher]

Oh hell, I hope they don't squeek. That will drive me nuts.

trust me.........it drove me bonkers. I had mine on for about 3-4 months........if that.

 

[Off_Road_Teacher]

Were you able to get the squeek taken care of? If so, how?

 

[0212353]

yup!

I took 'em off, sold 'em to someone else. Fixed that damn squeak!

Really......I lubed them ******* more than a ......... Still squeaked.

 

[glass3222]

yup.

If memory serves me right, you will need a 21mm socket and wrench. and a T55 torx bit. a drop hitch works wonders for swapping it out too.

I am pretty sure that is all I needed when I did mine.

I have McGaughys 2" on my truck. I have never has any squeaks with mine. Took less than an hour to do.

i loved installing mine lol... mine squeak a tad but my truck already did that before kinda so i think i have a bad shock...

Is your truck level with them?

I had the slammed1's on my truck when I traded it in.

Why are there so many Jays that like Blacked out trucks?

 

[OklaHemi]

truck looks bad ass. it would have pulled my vote even more. i have to admit i was skeptical about the wing but you pulled it off nicely. i would say drop it too but you know

 

[Bad Habit]

jay its gotta be a jay thing....my shackles dont squeek, teach keep your eyes open for some slammd1 on dt they come up once in a while a new set sold for 50 shipped about a month or so ago, but still for 75 for mcg's is not bad....they will not make your truck perfectly level....i had to remove the o/l leaf to acheive that but it will reduce that nasty nose dive....

I will definitly keep my eyes open. As long as it gets it close to level I will br happy. The rake on the truck is pretty noticeable stock so anything will be an improvement.

 

[Bad Habit]

Yeah you got that right anything will be... I'll keep my eyes peeled as well since I'm always looking for chit...

 

[Off_Road_Teacher]

Thanks man, let me know if you see any come up.

 

[quietpeen]

i had ground force 2" drop shackles for a while, and they never squeaked.

 

[glass3222]

Is your truck level with them?

I am not quite level, but much better than stock. If you remove the overload leaf you will be level, but I use my truck so I did not want to do that. Or you can crank the torsion bar up a little in the front to sit level.

this is not the best pic but will give you an idea of how mine sits

 

[Off_Road_Teacher]

That is pretty much the look I am going for. And I need to keep the ol for hauling.

 

[Bad Habit]

i still haul ****...just gotta watch what, i got a trailer for some stuff....

 

[Off_Road_Teacher]

I was thinking maybe some air bags for when I haul stuff.
