I am in Cameron Park, only about 10 miles or so from Folsom.

I have everything but the UCAs and the waiting is a PITA.

hey guys the install is pretty straight forward if you are familiar with the FJ suspension and if not you are about to learn. and it may take you a couple of hours or few hours..If you guys got questions on the install ping me and I'll give you guys my number...

Daryl,

Let me know when you are doing this and I can offer directions/advice as well. If you have basic metric tools, a torque wrench, jack stands and a good jack you are all set.

Thanks Paul, I have all of the tools I need. I picked up a Pitman Arm separator and a torque wrench. I have a wrench I picked up about 20 years ago, but I do not trust it anymore.

Still waiting for the UCAs. I am going to call Demello Tuesday to get an update.

Looks like it is going to be yet another week. Apparently ICON is a bit backed up on the UCAs as they are waiting on a part.

Let's get an install day soon. I have these shocks that I want to put on and I have yet to attend an install day.

I should have the last piece of my lift today. Does anyone want to get together this coming weekend to do some installation? Assuming it is not raining.

Frolic is next month beeez. The MTA Meet and Greet in San Jose is this Saturday though. Let me know when you are doing it Daryl and I will swing by and give you my limited technical help if you want it. I can at least order pizza and bring beer! Although this weekend I'm a little busy.
