More Toys!!

Just ordered my BL, got my 8.8 comin from kyle...looks like I'm pretty damn set right now!!!

Hopefully I can get the 37's off Levino for a nice price...looks like I CAN scrape up some dough.

We'll have a north fl meet sometime maybe, if we can all make it with the schedules!!!

And my truck is running like a top.

Sorry no pics, I'll get pics of the BL when I get it (only takes 2 days). I'll be installing next monday hopefully!!!

I'm getting some PB blaster tommorow.

I'll have body, spindle, tbar crank, aals/shackles

I should have plenty of room.

If I don't, I'll get fiberglass fenders, and for the rear take off my flares. I really don't want to though.

I'll be using both

BTW, the torch thing, you just heat up the bottom of the washer? or what do you heat up, I kinda don't understand!

Yeah just heat the washer till you start to smell the rubber burn then hit it with an impact. Works like a charm!

If you used enough PB blaster you shouldn't need to.

Hmmm...makes me wonder.

And the purpose of the method is so that the rubber expands and the bolt has room to slide up right? It sounds like a good plan. I just hope I don't juice the rubber though.

When me and zach did my BL I don't think we used PB blaster. We just put a little heat on it and hit it with the Impact. Took 10 Mins to get the bolts out lol.

Negative captian... there is factory thread lock on the bolts the only really way to get them to separate is heat... there is acully no need for BP blaster just head them easy as ****...cause what ever BP you put on the torch will burn off anyways
