northwesttaco's SOLD LT Build w/ 35's and BS

Put them both on my bedrack

Everyone behind be can see shmellmopwho hahaha!

 

@northwesttaco how's those 650# 14" King coils handling that bumper and winch? How's the ride?

 

They are 600's... And I don't have my skids back on yet but I know it won't be good. Saturday I'm having the steering rack bushings replaced and the skids need to be off for that

 

So you think you'll need 650# or 700#?

 

I'll get 700's in a month or so. Everyone who has 35's with full armor runs 700's and still stuffs them easily.
Plus think that stock is 600lb with no armor.. Winch, bumper and skids is over 200lbs so with 700 lb coils your just returning to stock weight "ratio" I guess

 

For right now I got an SOS front plate full hoops bumper (steel) with winch, avid skids and hoping to get an ifs skid. What should I get? I'm so fawking confused on this

 

Aluminum or steel skids? And synthetic winch IIRC? Aluminum go with 650lb but steel go 700's in my opinion.

 

More than likely steel. But it's going to be next year before I can get fully skid up.

 

I'd go 700 so that you don't have to get new ones in the future, do it once and get it over with. May be a little stiff but the winch will help a lot.

@iJonny does your buddy still want those 700lb king coils? If not ill take them still..

 

I'll have to think on that.

 

He bought them and installed them already. You and Ace here should get a GB together

 

That's a damn good idea @northwesttaco

 

I'll be in the 700lbs coil GB too

 

You guys may be able to get enough people on a GB. Get Ray or whoever is the one who is the GB master

 

@ramonortiz55 we need a GB

 

for what?

 

GB on plano cases?

 

Coils! I want some 650# or 700#

 

what about the shocks? why not the whole coilover?

 

Dude you've been in my build just got all the lift a month ago and just starting to need stiffer coils haha
