Is the finish on them the same? I'd ask about process in the production to get a better idea. Seems concerning if they are the same even down to the hardware.

You have any pictures of these?

That is impressive stuff. I guess if I wasn't cleaning and painting I'd probably have figured it out or at least I'd like to think I would I don't have any but I did pick up a set for my father on his birthday. He's 10 hours away so I couldn't grab them. I should probably research a good set...

Very impressive! It would have taken some time me some time to figure that one out. I'll have to save that in my memory bank. 🤪 Its better than it was... I baked it so its cured

I cleaned them up the best I could and have them in the oven now. I need to make it drivable quicker than the parts will get here. I have a feeling there will be some other suspension changes in the future so Ill get them now. The struts perform exactly the way they drove, boat like. They do...

The hat or perch actually has rubber in it. I guess its to fight vibration, but I wonder if its something that should be replaced at some point?

got her a part finally. The vice grip didn't work as I planned but did work. I was actually able to tighten the bolt up so I ran the nut back and forth while spraying it with PB blaster and it came off

I do have new control arms or I wouldn't have used something that destroys them or cut them. I have several removing tools and have never had to cut a bolt like that before but a bigger tool wouldn't have fit it in the same space. I tried putting as much pressure on the hat/top to jamb the shaft...

The front is fighting bad. First the upper control arm would not disconnect from the upper ball joint. I tried a 2 different forks and it was a no go then I went to my ball joint kit. The bolt was so long I had to cut in order to use the tool. I got my new kit for spring tool and I'm really...

Its the caliper pin/slides we are talking about. I thought it maybe a RAM thing so I just wanted to be sure.

Ive never used any color before on them. I'm 100%re they said it. I may go back and look to remember who recommended that. I don't think thats a good thing to tell people

Its finally coming together and I've made a punch out list. My spring compressor decided to give up last night. It didn't break but it sure got close enough I didn't feel comfortable with it. I was able to get a new one by 5pm today. I watched a video where they were recommended RED lock tight...

I was buffing when I got started with this. I got the Milwaukee m18 buffer and orbital and then the m12 sander/polisher 🤪 I didn't want compound flung all over black plastic.

Welcome and Congrats on the new truck in Spain. You probably don't see many 1500 in that part of the world 🤪

Sounds like an awesome truck (y)

Welcome and Congrats on the new truck! You've come to the right place. You won't find a better place with knowledge this one has.

You are not alone! I've been fooling with this project for a month but I kept finding stuff to do. Looks good. Maybe I'm missing something but I thought I had to have spacers so the wheels would fit?

Passenger rear finished tires on the ground but front frame in the air and 70 psi in the air bags I guess its just the angle because I did measure. The jack stands aren't perfectly spaced so the slope is different I officially start the front tomorrow 🤪 It shouldn't take as long since I'll be...

It takes a bit of digging but if I had to live with it Id be ok. I was wondering about that. Seems a little extreme for some reason I tought -12 made wheels flush. I'm going to bed my brain is done when simple things liike offsets confuse me. 😵‍💫

I'll check into that. I think 1 to 1.5 will work out fine. I heard something about staggered in my research which is something I've never done before on a 4X4. I do NOT like the skateboard look at all and I feel that like I'm approaching that with 1.5. We will know soon once its on the ground...
