To everyone with tubular uppers!

Can i get a hook up?

I uesd to run 3/8" valves and line, but im upgrading to 1/2" because it always seemed "SLOW" up and down....

WELL I FOUND OUT WHY-

Tonight as im putting the 2" drop spindles on my toy, I un-bolted the upper ball joints and found that the upper a-arms are SEIZED! You CAN move them but it takes a HELL of alot of effort....bushings are cracked/torn up too

If ya have some factory uppers laying around,and ya wanna ship em to me, i will be forever grateful, and i will pay shipping too!!

Spring Fling '07 is in 2 weeks, and im in pieces! I still need a 3rd member, gotta put all new valves in and re-plumb everything, get my tires mounted, and finish the spindles along with a few other little things.

PLEASE HELP!!

damn man i wanted to take my truck to spring fling but its not in the condition that i planned,it will def be at the unite show with all the new goodies

Hmmm, i think my stock uppers are in good condition. Balljoints were shot tho.

you can replace those bushings with OEM style rubber for around $40 for both sides. Energy Suspension would be around $55-60. All it takes is a torch to burn out the old ones. There should be nothing actually wrong with your arms, just replace the bushings.

I got some Energy Suspension bushings still from whem I built arms. I'll sell you a set for less than stock rubbers.

Sick Side...

Ill take em if you have em!! I just dont want to mess with burning out the old bushings and pressing the new ones in right now, ro id rather get something bolt on for now.

Let me know what you want for em?

I found them today, apparently i cleaned them up and even painted then black before i decided to go all out.
What are they worth to you? Just send me whatever with an address.

hey seth would you consider building another set of uppers for me? ill supply the cross shaft for you.

Sorry dude, definitely not into it. I don't even have the jig anymore, I cut it up so I'd have an excuse not to build more. One one I have a jig for is the ones on my truck.

its ok, getting a set from the junkyard tommorow, theyre clean and quick... i tried to get some from sick side but i think he's busy...

Got some of the new toys today...

4 new shoes Nankang 17's

8 new ASCO 1/2" Valves

2" Dropped spindles (thanx again slamdtaco)

2 new water traps

all new plumbing

Hardline from all 3 compressors to tanks

3 check valves (1 per compressor)

Hope i have it back together in time for spring fling.....
