Florida B.S. Thread

Tim I have an extra CB sitting at the house if you want it.

 

It's a had radio? Sweet just need to get a cable and the antenna

 

I feel as if my head is going to explode after reading about options to consider for finally lifting the truck. Trying to figure if I should consider the expo or standard leafs from All-Pro if I go that route. I know the standards are a lighter duty. So would the assumption be it would be a bit stiffer in the rear?

 

No. Expos are a rough ride until broke in and have weight. My truck has expos and it's a slight stiff ride in the back until I have a load. They are designed to carry 500 lbs and maintain the lift expos will net about 4.5ish and standards I think are 3 to 4"

 

no, it will be softer than the expos. The expos are designed to carry weight, so they are stiffer than the standards to accommodate the weight

 

Beat ya @Alfuh

 

Flip Flopped my words on that one. Thanks @Timbo89 and @Alfuh. I was figuring of piecing this together across the sale of today and what might come from Christmas. Then hoping the tax return can finish this off with wheels and tires at that point most likely.

So far on the list is:
Maxtrac Spindles
All Pro Expos leaf (Most likely)
Ubolt Flip Kit
May settle on 5100s unless I can find a good deal on possible Fox or Icon at that time.

Wont be going to crazy, but figured that would give me a good start. Any other thoughts I should factor in?

 

yea uh @Alfuh

 

possibly drive shaft spacer and extended rear brakelines
may need spacers for the front wheels..not sure though

if you want to save money, keep your stock shocks and springs til you do more, but if you want an extra 2-3'' of lift, then 5100's are nice and cheap

 

Noted, at least if I need them I may not have to worry for the UCA since I still have the LR's from two meets ago to work with.

 

fix that signature!

 

haha, i had them for over a year too, til i decided i was too lazy to put them on. They're def beefier than oem, but I'm lucky my alignment is within spec

 

oh yea, with the allpro rears, i'm thinking you'll need extended shocks too, you prob won't have that much travel with the stock ones

if you look at the description part, it'll give you collapsed and extended lengths for the shocks

Fixed it!

Yeah that I was assuming, but I may consider just doing the 5100's since sitting down and really thinking about it, it may not make too much sense to go crazy on suspension at the moment. Since it seems to be a matter of preference, it could very well serve my purpose. I figured once done I can join up to do some of the trail rides and what not. Maybe then it will force the hand to dive a bit further in.

 

With the allpro expos I have the rcd extended 5100s

 

With that, do you run with any extra weight in the rear?

 

I run with a empty bed and my boat drops it like 1/8" maybe when I pull it around

 

I think @Timbo89 & I have the same setup in the rear.

We will haha. I'm adding a 1.5" block but I ordered the 1.25 ds spacer before I decided on doing the 1.5" should still be ok. I also have a flip kit no bumps
