Yeah, I had a problem with my lower control arm bolts, when I had to replace the ball joints.

The first lower strut bolt was seized but let go with some force, the second one was no problem.

 

When I did my ranchos/TM levelling kit I had some problems with the drivers side lower bolt, (nothing a lil swearing, a few beers and a torch couldn't fix tho)

Passenger side everything came out perfectly.

 

Dude, I like your truck. I kinda miss my red truck, especially when i walk out of the grocery store. Red stands out!

I didnt have the black molding on my old truck. I think that it looks cleaner all red. Red door handles would be sweet!

 

pull the molding, i did, it really cleans it up imo

 

Thanks guys. Moulding is coming off, and I think Ill do painted bases for the door handles and leave the actual handle covers off so they are black.

I need to stop spending money for a week or two, so Ill order handle covers soon.

 

Yea i had a hell of a time doin my leveling kit. IT wook me an my friends all night
We started at 330pm and we diodnt finish up till 2:00AM. I never wanted to go thru that again

 

Did you install yours on top of the strut?

I had my 1.5" installed in the strut and the guy said there wasnt much room for more. I couldnt imagine trying to do that with a spring compressor in my garage ....

 

i did it ontop but i had trouble getting it on without a spacer. an extra 2 inches was realy hard.

 

Congrats man, looking good.

 

Coming soon: A painted front bumper.

I can get one for $50 and then I just have to get it sprayed
