Florida B.S. Thread

Want to post my lift numbers on the Bilstein's 6112's on the first setting in hope of helping someone in the future with these. My trucks a sport pre runner access cab and after lnstalling these yesterday they've settled .5 inch. Original measurement from center of hub to bottom of front fender was 20.5 . Now it's 22.0 - 1.5 difference. This is what I wanted to achieve. The rear is 22.0 also. Here's a couple of photos. I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday!! Thanks @HeadStrong Off-Road.

 

When we're they for sale?

Pretty confused how people can run that have won in the past. Guess no rules just everyone is open...?

Voted for you.

 

Yea that's what I was wondering, thanks man!! Got part of your truck on mine lol

 

my 1980 pu should totally win that

 

maybe next year

check the polls

 

haha this is true....so a "little" part of me is in that poll.

maybe one day I'll actually make a build thread but not anytime soon

 

exactly!

 

I'm about to lose my ducking mind on this damn feeling like I'm riding on oval tires. I've had it with my 20s I had it when I put the sports back on and I have it with the new tires.

Discount tire rebalanced all 4 and found one that was in the front with a slight hop so they dismounted and rotates the tire and they said it was a whole lot better.

Frnot has a steering wheel shake at 40 to 50 and smooths out bed hops about the same speed. I'm going to sell all lift items in a few months if I can't get this shit to stop. I'm about done with the shirt ride. Only thing I can think is the front isn't in full alignment due to maybe needing upper arms.

Front is
Castor 2.3. 2.6
Camber .5. .6


Toe is good drives straight.

Rear lift is expos from a truck that was rolled over and totaled. And 1.5" tapered blocks.

I put my beefed taco cv drop in today and take off vibes are gone and nothing at any speed. When I go on vacation next Thursday I'm going to take the wheels off my 4runner that I know are good and true and see if I get the same thing if so I'm burning this both to the ground

Side note 14bff and a d60 is starting to sound a lot better I'm really getting irritated with this shit ride.

 

When your phone is autocorrecting your ass because it loves to keep it pg

 

Are you stI'll running stock uppers with your setup? If so....that's most likely your issue. I've had zero issues with my 35s and no shaking or hopping

 

Damn timbo, with all those problems I had to double check who posted it, I thought you were aluf

 

The front is minimal the rear is what's pissing me off.

 

Uhhh....I dont recall having any of these issues...

 

Chris it wouldn't explain the first setup with 3 different sets of tires and wheels

 

Yeah i reread what you had wrote. Have you tried a different set of Leafsprings by chance? You said they were from a rolled and totaled truck. Might not be the issue, but i think at this point you may as well try things

 

I'll get the 4runner wheels on it and see how it rides if it rides smooth it's the tires if not it's something on the truck

 

You got me worried now because I'm about to put 5100s in without upper control arms, but I hope you get all this worked out. I guess if I have similar issues then the stock upper control arms are the problem.

 

I think it's all tire or something. You don't need upper arms until 3" and we'll I'm pushing that.
