Long Travel BS Thread

I like BJ right up until he 'won' huckfest, what was that, 2 years ago? At that point is when I realized what a douche he was.

 

As if Toyota owners weren't arrogant enough. He'll fit right in.

 

Guys I need help please. Tacking my perches for proper ds angle.

So, my truck is on jack stands but it's at an angle downward. Does this matter? I need to weld the perches onto the axle. Plus it's at full droop. Does it need to be at ride height with tires on?

 

I'd want the axle at ride height

 

Bolt it all down, and get it as close to ride height as you can and then tack your perches in place once your pinion angle is where you want it.

 

Yeah man. Thanks bud! Appreciate that. Kinda what I was going to do. Definitely different. Just set the angle down and floor jack it up where it need to go.

 

Whatever you need to do to get it to ride height. Just make sure everything's nice and tight that way the opinion doesn't rotate or slip. Few solid tacks on the perches, drop it down, strip it and weld it up

 

Once my shocks are tacked on the axle side, how do you compress the shaft/shock for when cycling to find the sweet spot during full stuff? Droop is easy to get the measurement because the shock is already extended.

 

Sounds complicated. Lol.

 

That's the funniest shit I've seen all day.

 

Made some progress today, co/bypass mounts will tie into cage

 

Not mine but someone with a 1st Gen could pick up quite a few parts. The ad was from the Facebook Offroad Classifieds.

 

Who's going to jump champs? I'll be there!

 

Pick me up on the way out? Lol

 

I would! But we're here already lol

 

Where are you guys parked? I was going to head out there in the am.

 

We're at canyon lake now visiting family, we're leaving early tomorrow

 

So close but still wrapping up the loose ends.

 

When parts are just sitting there looking you in the eye everyday.
