What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (124 Viewers)

Replaced the front control arm bushings and the rear lowers today. Also tightened up the steering box. It already handles like a completely different truck. I was going to do the uppers but couldn't get the frame bolt out on the driver's side due to LSPV in the way. Planning to delete that soon anyway with the ABS so they'll be done then.

All you have to do is bend the bracket ever so slightly and it's clear!

Built and covered a foot well box to hold up the head of our mattress and cut and layered a couple foam sleeping pads under the rear carpet for a little extra cushion. Left to do this weekend is check and fill berfs, differential, etc then paint the roof rack and a free cargo basket then install. after that it’s north to the tetons on wednesday for 5 days . should be a hell of a trip.

@omergin hood scoop looks awesome. Is it functional? For intercooler? Or cosmetic. Whatever it’s for it’s a great job.

Installed new drag link and drag link ends (thanks @cruiseroutfit ). Steering wheel is pointed straight for the first time in over 5 years. Even got my wife to help (tell me when the steering wheel is straight) with no complaints, which is pretty amazing.



Then promptly backed over my furniture dolly--got it wedged in there pretty good between the tires

I did that with our expensive double stroller in the Costco parking lot ofter loading the groceries. Pretty embarassing when 6 or 7 bystanders are yelling and pointing.

TRE at the pitman arm was extremely out of wack (bent about 20°). New TREs all the way around and a home brew alignment until I can make it to get an alignment
