calmini upper install

I just picked up a set....well more like finally got a set! Any of you AZ guys have any tips for the install? I have read some posts about the ball joint being a !@#$% to get off the spindle. Is this correct or do I have no worries?

Should be pretty straight forward. They can be a beeacth, just depends. Make sure to get an alignment when your done.

I did plan on an alignment right away. I will have to see what happens as far as the rest goes, cant wait to get 33's on there.

Wow!! Your still alive. How are things?

I am going strong man, my X is good, just getting it together slowly. I need to make it to a meeting sometime again soon. I always see mod days and outings and really want to go but can never make them. I should have tires next week so I will be raring to go out and use them, I really cant wait to get in the snow.

Good to know your doing well.

Be careful if you go out alone and I hope you've noticed that we have the dates for most of the year planned out so it may be easier to plan time off for Xcursions, etc.

Those UCA's aren't that bad to do. Of course we were using pneumatic tools, pickle fork, etc. If it's an AZ X I don't see it being too difficult.

Good luck and hope to see ya around.

How are all you guys doing, I see left and right everybody going new school on me and swtiching to the new gen X.

I talked with Roger not too long ago on here...dont know too many more of you guys. I did meet Dan, he is hard to forget!

You gotta come out and represent the gen1's with me. I have been feeling a bit lonely out there lately with all the Gen2's.

I wish I was still reppin' Gen1..

I don't - But then mine was a stock 2wd

Good news on my Taxes, Father Shrockmas might be visiting RiNkY sooner than expected.

...Shrockmas... Classic

And sure Dan, you could always limit the travel of that gas pedal as well as don't flip that locker switch and other than Color you'd be right at home.

Well, I think wheelin is a lot of fun, and I am ready for some trail damage so I am sure I will have to come out. I just hate that the meetings are always on the "wessssside".

I am taking th eplunge tonight on the control arms so wish me a nice easy install. See you guys soon hopefully.

Hey, we're equal opportunity guys, every other meeting is on the Eassstsidde. :p

Good luck on the Install! I'm sure it will be flawless.

Aren't many of us left, are there?

:p

I got the arms on, no real problmes other than hitting my hand with a hammer once! I will survive. My rig drives way better now than before. This week should be tires, and then some "testing" this weekend if I can wait that long.

There are a few of us planning to head out this weekend...stay tuned and maybe tag along.

heck yes I will

what day?

We were tossin' Sunday around...maybe Box Canyon/Hassayampa up near Wickenberg.

I will try and make it....I have heard about those runs. Not too hard????

.....

you bastards talk all you want... But this princess is going solid! I've been away for awhile just busy with school, the move and of course work.. I don't plan on wheeling the x much b4 the swap as the shmalmini steering is about to have a diarrhea explosion all over my truck, and I can't have that mess (it smells like shat). In addition, the rest of the front end sounds like an old lady trying to take the stairs to the top of the empire state building. I'm just having to be patient.. I will have the swap all done before moab though! Plus, at least I still have a gen 1! booooooooooyaaaaah!
