Well, I think I'm out of this show. It is unfortunate that the club seems to have little interest in outings anymore, it is not a good sign for our club or the brand. I will inform Chris that the club will not be attending this year. I know The Judge is still planning on heading to the show to support the cause and the sport in general, and I may drop in on it later in the afternoon just to see what's happening but won't be a participant. Too bad it's a good cause this year.
 
 Rhino it is up to you if you still want to make the drive, but you could be on your own.
 
    Maybe next time
                Brian
 
p.s. Roy, I hope you have better luck with your planned outing.

Sorry Gagets and Greenie but Rhino is awaiting for his fix (4th set lasted 20kms) The springs are too long.
maybe next year we should be at Street Classics just long rides with wonky suspension is not fun. Hope to be fixed for Roys event with another new surprise on board. Ron

Missed out guys. It was a good time, lots of nice looking trucks, heat wasn't too bad, there was even ice cream!

Ok 4th set of rancho springs on truck still not right but we plan to show note we may have some info to give out but only in person.
to all we come out of west end Toronto and drive from original mile 0 on QEW to site. and may return to do Street Classics show that pm
That is a bit wierd about the springs. There have been numerous threads on other forums about this. I would stay away from Rancho after the first debacle. Stock springs are best apparantly.

If you do not want OEM then you will need to go full custom from alcan/deaver etc and that will be around $700

When you install the new bolts make sure to use a quality anti seize on everything! Mostly the shackle bolts. I never trust mechanics to put it on thick.
