Probably not the best idea…

The plan was to install the leveling kit, but my gut feeling told me this setup was a bit too sketch and I should probably hold off. Instead I buttoned up some ongoing issues with Nicole’s S13. Will it ever end?http://LZMFG.com

  1. PS calipers were not dangling from the lines, they were resting on the tension rod (hard to tell on camera). Thanks for the concern but I'm not THAT stupid 🙂

  2. Thanks Adam and Nicole for making all the videos. Your videos make me happy after a long hard day. Love the long videos! Keep it up guys. Y’all are aspiring.

  3. Instead of use a 2×4 to hold the hub @ 6:30 use a long flat head screw driver and stick it in the rotor and let that rest against the caliper when tightening or loosening your wheel spacers

  4. Adam I was watching this video and noticed 2 things #1 is that your don't have the extension for the lift and the. Second thing Is that you had the brake caliber hanging by the hose and you shouldn't do that because it can brake the hose or split the hose also it can make a weak spot in the hose

  5. You could've lifted it up the front. I've done ton of suspension repair on 3/4 and 1 ton trucks with just the fronts lifted using a two post. Never had any trouble. Also why did you not torque the hub back to spec?

  6. Yeah Adam just move the truck back out of the garage a little and lift it with the center of balance more towards he front, you won’t be able to go all the way up but I imagine you already knew that. But the truck will be as level as it would be at any shop that uses 2 post lifts

  7. Be careful using the wood on the stud. I know its holding the hub in place but would hate to see it flaten the thread and cause an issue. I know it will prob notch the wood first but still your gonna lower the car down anyways just snug em up then.

  8. adam. i drive an older version of your truck. its lifted. you can do it. open door and move it back, id say 5 inches back and ta-da!! it shouldn't be sketchy. no one likes sketchy. i do but my middle name is chance, so im always taking chances. ok, done ranting bye!

  9. You don't know sketchy until you've got to add extensions to those lifts to clear running boards and such and having to put them on two different portions of the frame, up in the air with a big truck lol. You sneeze wrong, it rocks, you poop your pants and then it just ruins your day. Just rock it an inch or so off the floor and make sure it's solid. I've not had one accident in all the years i've been using lifts.

  10. I applaud your safety. One thing you might want to keep in mind is to use a carpenter's level. Place it as close to this center of the vehicles, say on the bed rail or on the car's door sill. This would make sure that the vehicle was level. Just a thought. Oh, when you replaced the hub I'm sure that you used a NEW cotter pin. Although you might wonder why an old cotter pin is more prone to break off under hard use and tear into your wheel assembly. I think you're doing a wonderful job. Considering all of the jobs that your doing. Later.

  11. If you wouldve let part of the truck out of the garage, you couldve had the lift farther up on the lift it wouldve lifted evenly. Please understand hpw they work and what techniques work before doing something. Or not have more money than brains. I'm a junior in hs. This isnt that difficult of a thing to do if you're smart enough to use the lift…..
