Welcome to the channel If your here hit that subscribe button!!. My channel is generalized around instructional install videos, outdoors, hunting/firearms, construction, culinary and DIY. You can find me on Instagram #DeMiDoG45
Dont hesitate to ask a question I'm always here to answer Cheers!!
This is not a problem unique to Readylift. Any lift without caster correction may result in bump steer or death wobble. Solid front axle coil spring caster adjustment is accomplished with a bushing that interfaces with the upper ball joint stem. Shim is not really a correct term for this part because it is actually an eccentric bushing but the marketing people call it a shim. Older vehicles with leaf springs in the front used an actual flat wedge shaped shim between the spring stack and the axle flat to roll the axle rearward. These bushings replace the factory bushing and come in fixed or variable degree increments. Double wishbone caster adjustment (F-150, Toyota etc.) beyond factory adjustment limit is achieved by replacing the upper control arms. If you take your F250 in for an alignment after you install your lift and they don't change the caster shim then they may not know what they are doing.
We also used electric motor pod clamps that use air suction, they work perfectly, no need to manually adjust the height of the two edges, the air pods flush them up perfectly, but the kit is expensive but works 😎
We use a router with 1/2” corian blocks on each side of a double fluted 1/2” straight bit, about 1” gap outside of the router bit, these blocks are glued to the router base, the bit is set back 1/32” shallow from the face of the blocks, this allows the adhesive overflow to be shaved down, this saves from chiseling it and possibly putting unwanted chips into the face side of the SS, makes for much less sanding too, just something that is efficient for our shop, good videos however
Nice video, I have the same truck 8”lift with 38s as I’m getting older it’s getting harder to get in and out! Are they lower than the one you had on? I wish they had one in chrome 😊
I have installed a 2” rough country leveling kit on 3 trucks all have been ford f250’s 2020 and up. I have never had any issues at all. As long as you already have a roughly 2” difference from the back to the front. It’s been 4 years and not one problem or malfunction
I'm glad that's worked for you. This is specifically taking about a leveling kit meaning only the front being lifted. Bring the front level with the rear of the vehicle.
@@demidog4549 maybe the seam you were doing was really big picky customer , theirs nothing wrong with overkill that’s not a bad thing I do tons of commercial set seams all the time depending on color you can never see my seams and I just use blocks and clamps , now what I would like to see is setting long splashes when your by yourself any tricks because if the hot melt setting up . Or building an L shape
Thank you Man I've owned Glock pistols since the mid 90s just got my first model 20 gen4 and it was driving me nuts trying to put the slide back,something I've done hundreds of times.
Thanks for the video, doing mine for a Silverado next week. Have you taken your truck through a car wash since the install? Do the fender flares stay in place pretty well and has your paint job held up?
Thank god there was no demo on the fluxcore portion lol that wire sucks and snaps easy. Just got this welder today and I’d say the thing runs like a champ
We love our good old, faithful battery-operated dewalt brand tools, especially this new pex-a expansion ring thingie! We just love it, Milwaukee Su*cks! Hahahaaaaaa.😅
