Long Travel BS Thread

He clearances his frame for the bypasses.

 

I'm not saying Delran wont work for bushings, but for bushings that move or pivot, its not the best choice IMO. Tends to crack and it is extremely noisy.

 

It's a lot of freaking work getting this stuff on.

 

Started Caging the Tacoma, its a lot of work.

 

I've been interested in something like this, but if you factor in having to have modified axles for 4wd instead of just using Tundra shafts then it's almost the same to just get a TC or Camburg kit and get more travel to boot. I don't think you could get more than 11" of travel out of a kit that's 1.5 - 2" wider than stock either, at that point it's better just to do mid travel and save money.

 

You can get 10-11" from an extended travel coilover as it is.

Definitely not worth the money

 

Which MT setups allow 11" of travel? I am running extended SAWs and it looks like there is no way you could run longer shocks, it would appear there would be a collision near the LBJ.

 

Haven't been in this site in forever but figured you guys might want to see a setup we did.

 

Looks good guys!

 

New rear springs fresh paint on the whole back end of the truck it was starting to get pretty rusty with this weather we've been having. Wired up a new back up camera to my stereo since my last one got ripped off in glamis some how lol

 

If you have a uniball UCA, then you are already potentially running 10-11'' of travel. I can't speak for SAWs but I know that some of the extended travel COs give you a lot of travel.

 

That must be a first gen # because on a second gen with uniball UCA and LCA ( and bumped properly) you are not going to get anything over 9"ish, that is why they make the +2 kits to get you into the 11.5" range

 

What did you guys do with the rear?

 

So I was going with the cantilever set up on my truck. But I was thinking I could pretty much link it right? I already have the bypasses for the rear but this is my chance of changing my mind. The truck won't get caged until next year tho. Any downsides of not having a cage and links ? I know I'll need a fuel cell if I link it so extra$$$. I use my truck for anything in the desert. High speeds(kind of) and 4x4ing

 

3 link the back and u can keep the stock gas tank

 

Yeah just need 14" coilover

 

I was planning on this but after looking at everything I would have to completely rebuild the factory gas tank cross members to clear the upper link. Decided it would be easier to cut it all out and run a fuel cell under the bed and 4 link, more travel and won't cycle on a C axis.

 

I have nearly new 18" 700 lb King coils and new in the box 18" 650 lb Eibach coils for sale if anyone needs PM me.

 

Old man emu coils and King 2.5" bolt in shocks. Rides pretty good.

 

Didn't know they made 650 18''..sure they aren't 600s?
