BGR's Beach Vehicle Build Thread

Need my skids and lift and tires on already
Was just crashing into rocks just trying to get a few feet down the beach

 

Not much progress besides using it for fun
Love sleeping in it
Awesome my air mattress fits perfect

Cv's are about ready to explode tho
Clicking and popping like crazy right now

 

Self leveling system

 

How many build threads do you have?

Did you ever do the LCAs?

 

Bob made this site for me per request
Your welcome
And
I have not done one thing to my truck as of yet
Been going away with it every weekend
But now my cv is about to implode
Did u do yours?
If so
Want to do mine i can drop it off when ever u have time

 

Mine are done. Reybestos complete LCAs with the greaseable bolts.

I would not want to deprive you of the experience of replacing them yourself.

 

I just did a set on the taco
Don't fell like doing it again so soon
I could drop it iff at anytime really
You could even swap out the cvs and wheel bearings and spindles and ucas too
That would be great

 

I would love to hep, I really would, but I am all booked up for the next month or so. I am still reorganizing the garage, then I have a lift to put on my son's truck. I might be able to get to you early to mid-fall.

 

oh yeah you're booked up doing my new LCAs/cams with me

 

How bad are they? Are the bolts frozen?

 

Supposedly not according to firestone. Should be a pretty easy job all things considered. I need to return one of the arms, the bushing/washer was deformed, but I have the moog bolts and the raybestos greasable arms

 

My passenger side (1 frozen bolt) took two hours the drivers side (0 frozen bolts) half that. Would have been half the time, but I cleaned up some rust and painted while I had it apart.

 

so when are we doing mine? I have an air hammer and impact wrench so it should take even less time hopefully i'll have my icons rebuilt soon and i can knock it all out at once.

 

If you want to come out one Saturday morning we can knock it out in a few hours. I am usually running around with the wife Saturday afternoons. That will also give you a chance to get it aligned that same day. I already have all the air tools one might need along with the compressor to run them.

 

hmmmm I was half kidding, but that would be way better than doing it in the street like I usually do. I don't know when Amazon is gonna get me the replacement arm though. I got the first one with prime but it was the last one in stock, I may have to get a refund and order from Rock

 

My driveway is slightly better than the street for sure.

I ordered from the Rock. No muss,no fuss.

Just let me know what you want to do.

 

Will do!

 

Hmm

 

repost

 

At least something got done

What brake rotors you get? Are they going to help stop you from hitting yellow poles and crabs?

 

Dont think so
And i got the rotors from brakepreformance.com

 

Cool, I'm gonna need taco brakes soon, I'll check that out.
