Lovey
Oct 2004
I found this new in the box setup for a price I just couldnt pass up.
Its a 885/895(med). It'll pretty much suit my needs for awhile. Have no plans
for a winch until this becomes a trail rig.
We went with loosening upper ball joint and disconnecting tie rod. I've read of
other ways but this way made it pretty easy to put the strut in. Was also a little
skeptical of just using 2 standard coil spring compressors. But they worked just fine for a $35 pair.
Took about 5 hours taking our time with a break here and there.
285 BFG AT coming as soon as Uncle Sam pays me back. That'll be all for this
truck for quite some time. I should be spending $$$$ on the 40
.
A special thanks to cruiserhead for always being there for me and helping.
I am truely grateful for your friendship.
Took it to the trail this AM for a spin.
1st two pics before and after.
