I cannot confirm that I will make it in person, I will try my best... on top of work I need to actually get down to SJ to get my truck up and running.
Any which way, I will make sure to contribute all I am really good for... Booze!
Towcat: I will provide enough booze that if you do end up...
These tires appear to be designed for sand and other DRY coarse materials, I think they would almost act as shovels in mud! That is why they are used in the :frustrateMiddle East aka "The Sandbox" as towcat so eloquently calls it!
I live and work in San Francisco and the only off-road driving I...
Those are some pretty sweet trucks you have!!
According to the guy I bought the lift from it is 8" but seeing it on the truck it is definitely 6" to 7". With the addition of the 2" body lift it is up around 8" or so...
I am not trying to make it the biggest or the badest truck out there...
I got the tires from a guy on pirate4x4, I started a thread a while back with the info check it out:

I did not get them for $20 each (what a deal) but $75 + shipping a pop is not to shabby compared to how much "normal" 37" tires cost!
One step closer to TONKA!!

I have been to your shop and seen your arsenal... NO WAY am I coming close to your shop uninvited!! -Flame Thr:eek:
What were you talking about this whole pulley removing deal?? I am probably going to have to give you a call tomorrow morning :D
Here is a shot of the hydro boost/master that...
I found a dually 1994 F350 locally that is being parted out. I am going tomorrow to pull the master cylinder and hydro boost along with the water reservoir. What tools will I need to pull these parts?
Anything else I should pull off of the truck for the hydro boost conversion?
Thanks!
Does anyone know of a big rig salvage yard in the Bay Area or Northern California for that matter?
I had an inspiring dream :sly last night and I want to go scrounge around for some BIG parts!
Thanks!
GOT A SET!!
$40!!
The guy told me:
"Our insurance prohibits us from selling pieces of the kits... but, I have not met my quota for the day so, what the hell!!"
$40 + Tax and I have drop brackets!!
