In that case a bag of rice should be more indicated than a case of beer for you.

I'll stop by Saturday. I hope it's OK with you. Just to get some thoughts first. I have not yet ordered any parts.

I'll be around building prototypes. Feel free to come by.

So funny. I've already decided that my next tire replacement I will be doing this. I'm not great at constantly checking my air pressure. I'm still holding out for a better looking monitor or at least something with an iPhone/iPad app.

Im the opposite I check my pressure before I leave every time and I tend to drive aired down making heat is a concern. The set I purchased was not made to be mounted inside the wheel, I had to mod the sensors and source SS endless hose clamp.

The priority of this mod moved up after taken a razor knife blade on our LX470 @ 95mph on our way to Mexico. Without TPMS the out come could of been not good. When I travel my phone is off and I like to keep it simple and disconnected.
 
Working like a dog to get it ready for a cross country trip. So much in the last few weeks... Here is a before and all the afters that were taken yesterday.

What time will you show up? I can swing by and you can try my suspension setup vs joey's. Only thing that may need a shop would but the castor bushing, everything else can be done in An afternoon.

I just happen to have a truck here in my driveway with the exterior ripped out and Dynamat laid down. ;)

It should be here in a couple weeks. If I like it, I will start stocking these. The molded carpet for the 60 series is really nice. I have 60 series vinyl coming in as well.

--- 40, 55, 60, 70, 80 and 100 all available. (carpet and vinyl)

I'll PM you once it arrives to see if you're interested.

Would this be the problem I have then?

"7. IMPORTANT. In the US, with left hand drive vehicles, if the springs are labeled DS and PS, we install the DS (Driver Side) springs on the PS (Passenger Side) and visa versa. The springs are labeled for the right hand drive vehicles. If you can not locate the labels, or you have used springs, make sure you mark the springs that you remove from your vehicle and match long with the long and the short with the short springs."


My DS sits at 20" and PS at 21" as well as the rest of them.

possibly a blown shock on the driver side= too fat!
