lol sorry to report no teeth rattling involved. its very smooth and quite a pleasure to launch a 5,000 pound piece of metal gracefully in the air.

well, if greg doesn't find one my boy DezertRunner out of Santee has a dude, pro'ly the same dude as Greg's guy, that makes em of fiberglass reinforced plastic, down in TJ. now if that avenue doesn't work then you could go big and order a CORR titan front clip from boatec.com same idea of fiberglass reinforced plastic but of much higher quality and more $$$.

from what i've heard you've got driving skills even fer a youngster so you'll be fine, just know your limitations, lol...

trucks gonna be done this saturday or sunday... who knows... just happy its gettin' done!

thanks for the compliment on the rims... they're American Racing Mojave Teflons... got them from some dude in claremont mesa for 300 bucks on craigslist... LOL...

haha thats a killer deal, there like 900 new i think, i took a look online yesterday because im trying to find some rims, unfortunately i think im gonna have to mount 35s on the stock rim for now. yea greg mentioned someone out of tj and he always comes through so its not a problem, just a matter of time. as for the other hood, ill take a look but i have a set amount of $$$ ready for greg and the hood so im hopin haha. your stoked, get the titan back and then go nutz, its a really a fun time and the suspension is awsome as you well know. today was the first time i got any legitimate air, and it felt really smooth, except my lower bumper needs to go. so i think this april meet is going to turn out to be a pretty fun time. as for driving, i try not to be stupid and i think i do a decent job most of the time, but its always fun to get into a bit of trouble. on another note, did you get the tubular upper a-arm or boxed? 2.5 inch coil or 3? bumps? rear setup. how many other traveled titans are there in san diego besides you and i now. i dont think very many.......sorry just kinda rambled on and on there but i had a lot of jumbled thoughts lol.

no worries, ya, i first had to mount my 35s on 17" XE wheels i got from another dude with a 04 XE titan way back when.

greg'll hook ya up dude. he HAD another front clip before that i almost bought but the wife wouldn't let me blow it on it or i'd have it already. he ended up selling it to someone else. i really wanna get a front clip with louvers like his for the air to transfer through the fenders. feels like the wind lifts my front end up on my fenders i have now, LOL...

for the UCAs i got the tubular so i can add bypass shocks later. front coilover is 2.5" body, 3" would have been nice, but not needed if going to bypass later down the road.

for the rear, that's another project. currently is a 2.5" deaver pack with 2.0 reservoired Radflo's. i'd go to a 2.5 SAW for the rear but i've had the Radflo's back there since i swapped the Bilsteins out... so much better and the valving greg spec'd is phenomenal so i'm deciding on just keeping them. gonna cut out holes and have a mini-bedcage like greg's made up, longer deavers for under-axle mount ordered and rear bypass shocks installed, but like i said, that's a whole 'nother project. but desperately want more travel in the rear to compliment the front! if i didn't have a mortgage payment i'd get it ALLLLLLLLLLLLL, but i can't... oh well

haha nice choice, the tubular also allows for a bit more travel then the boxed, which is always nice. i went with boxed and hydraulic bumps with 2.5, but i think you saw it. i have a 3 leaf in the rear with 2.5 saw as well, and greg did an excellent job making the rear work for me too! its almost like he knows what hes doing or something haha. im waiting on greg to develop the rear leaf spring setup to go with bypass and cage as well. it looks like we pretty much have it down, i cant wait to see some titan fly in barstow haha.

great pics! now go try again and try n' get more frames per shot.....lol

Big Don · 03-07-2008, 02:59 PM

Why does it say For Sale on your backglass in the last shot?

SDtitan77 · 03-07-2008, 04:23 PM

because i was going to sell it but i changed my mind for good reasons, and then i decided to use it for the reason i bought it lol.
