What did you do with your 60 this weekend? (14 Viewers)

[WoodnotRust]

I need to add a spacer. Do you happen to have the spacer you didn’t use handy for measurements? Do you recall what size hardware?

Hi NearJetties...I was away from the house and just saw your post. Sorry for the late reply. I do have the hardware, but I had a drawing I used to make the part which might be better. I made a 1" and 2" tall spacer, but the guys that installed the LSPV seemed to like the shorter spacer.

Theoretically the 2" should be correct for a 2" lift ...at least you'd think that. I've not yet gone out to test my brakes to compare the before and after stopping distance, but they feel OK. Honestly, replacing the rear drums, booster, master cylinder and LSPV help just a little for the brake feel, but I'm not sure the brakes will stop better than before I started this job. I have new front calipers and rotors which I hope make a noticeable difference.

Damn that headliner still looks awesome. I want to leave my rig with these guys.

Big upgrade this weekend! Onestone armrest for a 70 series work great in the 60 as well.

Replaced front and rear output seals on my transfer case. Leak free! For meow… didn’t have a seal puller so I 3D printed a generic one. Worked great.

You did stake that output flange nut, right?

Do those require modifying or putting holes in the door cards?

Let both of them run for an hour while they’re tucked away for the winter. Cannot wait to get back to Arizona, I don’t know how you midwesterners deal with the cold.

They sure don’t! Only had to make minor modifications to the bracket that rests in the window track. Took about 15 minutes total, the armrest is actually held on by 2 big magnets- pretty clever!

Another front coil conversion.

I have passed the 100 kits sold/installed worldwide (19 countries- USA and Australia mainly)

Nice! Looks like you were able to do this one without clearancing the fender liners. is it kind of a truck by truck thing? Some i see you have to cut the liner and some dont

I did, and torqued to spec.

Got my speedometer seal kit from City Racer. So tossed that in. The inner seal was a pain to get out and I marred the cylinder so I polished it a bit with the dremel.

130k Just a Babe. Time to change the break-in oil.

@reddog90 I’m only 3000 miles ahead of you!

FORE!

Confirmed the EGR was the source of my high idle and hopefully MPG issues (we’ll see).

My 10 minute mod of the day… gas hood struts. Cost me 22.99 from Amazon.

Drove around the block wishing I was retired and on a road to nowhere.
