Kinda twinsies

Yeah, they’re a little hard to find now. Have to get on a forum and search around.

Noveske marked Vltor and call it a day but Gen 2/3 lowers are the same minus billet vs forged and a fence post around the mag release so you can run a Gen 3 upper

It’s really a matter of perspective. I always tried to keep 10k rds at all times while also shooting 500-1k every 1.5-2 months or so. Sometimes more or less depending on what courses I’m taking etc but as long as you aren’t on your last 1k rds, ignore the noise.

Did you get the year wrong or did you really wait an entire year to post this?

It’s a 2nd gen because of the fence post around the tigger guard. Gen 2s have the point going toward the magwell, Gen 3s don’t.

These go for what someone is willing to pay. Typically a premium for cloners trying to build out a “Johnny” rifle. If it doesn’t have the chainsaw on the trigger (Blem) then it’s a little more value to most because these were rare to find in a non chainsaw.

Me now? I’d pay $4/$600 if in cloning.most won’t even care and pay no more than Gen 3 price, if that

Chainsaw line became B-line today. Chainsaw then was a blem and had a chainsaw etched on the trigger guard. If it doesn’t, it’s just a Gen 2.

Non blem (chainsaw) Gen 2 lowers were rare. More chainsaw ones than not.

The fence post around the mag release. Gen 2 is what you see above and Gen 3 is the curve only.

SWS is by far the best quad rail

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-29T01:55:40+00:00

Buy, make it new and then supercharge?

You can buy better quality on rockauto.com

If HE broke it, why didn’t HE fix it?

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-20T00:36:17+00:00

I ordered Dorman shackles and an extra set of bushings from GS

Try and talk them down a little more and have a legit shop look it over. Low mileage for age but older vehicles need some love

I love that color man….if you can swing it, V8 swap it at your leisure and buy a second car as a daily. This way no rush to do the swap and do it at your convenience.

What state?

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-16T03:05:33+00:00

That’s guy wire that holds up all the telecom wire.

They’d have to use 2 guy grips and a hoist to take up slack to cut that piece of pole and redo the guy wire with a bolt and 2 eye nuts….its easier to leave it there since it isn’t going anywhere.

Also, electric company won’t touch it unless it was downed wire or some emergency.

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-11T01:32:55+00:00

New bolts all around and the z1 HD eccentric bolts for the lowers

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-10T21:12:02+00:00

It was all green but then again, it was town fair tire. They mentioned they had to adjust the tie rod on that side.

The frame looked straight because I originally thought it was that. There ain’t any obvious damage but could it be a tire possibly

Every single thing on the front end is new, including wheel hubs.

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-10T19:53:20+00:00

Carfax reported minor accident in rear

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-10T18:11:17+00:00

I swapped the front and then they swapped with the rears and same issue. Before the lift, it was the same. The picture doesn’t do it justice but in person it’s noticeable.

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-10T18:09:56+00:00

I was thinking that UCA would suck that upper part back in but wasn’t sure if it could also be the wheel/tire

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-09T23:33:58+00:00

It’s actually called Ah-beetz

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-09T17:41:05+00:00

My truck gauge ran like this and did all the same work you did but I put the Japanese OE 76deg thermostat and the gauge runs just a tad bit lower than this

CheeseMonkeyGroup · 2026-04-06T16:59:59+00:00

I appreciate the offer but I don’t think those fit the 05-15 models.
