Mid Travel BS 2.0

Yea, they sold out. He was going to bring a set to the expo to display. Ive been trying to hunt down pictures of a cracked bed side near the tailgate for him.
Pretty cool new product for those with bedracks and lots of weight on the bedsides. Should be available soon.

 

Jon, are you talking about the little cracks in the lower corners of the metal bed structure that you can see when the tailgate is down ? I got ya' covered if that is what you need pics of :/. What are the new gussets and where do they go ?

 

No problem! I'm waiting for the rest of my front suspension parts to come in and then I am ordering a set from you! I don't want to keep you waiting to long on the cores.

 

You still have my number? Text me with them.

Yes, the cracks that follow the bolts to keep the tail lights in.

They are really cool. They go in those corners and have tie down holes. They dont interfere with the tailgate at all.

I couldve sworn I took pictures of them at the expo.

 

Post pics please, so I know what I will have cracking soon.

 

Go ahead and order your spindles now before Jason sells out, plus if you have them early you can get them powder coated to match your new suspension parts... Because matcha matchy = +5hp

 

Even if they don't match, gusseted spindles add +20 hp, so you're good either way!

 

So basically...if you add a TRD sticker to powder coated matching gusseted spindles there is no need for a supercharger !

 

I thought that buying them from the internet adds 1" of travel? Installing stickers with the parts installed +50hp, stickers without parts only get +5HP.

 

Oh damn I forgot about the extra travel, @glorifiedwelder you should hire us to be your marketing firm....you might get sued repeatedly for false advertising but we'll see some spindles !

 

Thank you, I knew someone was selling them, but my Googlefu failed.

 

wtf is going on in here... I step out for a little and the whole thread becomes anarchy...



I like it..

 

WIN. Wait, so if I do that WITH a supercharger, I win at TW?

 

The grand prize is a swift kick to the nuts by @jberry813

It maybe long overdue though

 

anyone know where I can find a write-up on solid mounting the LCA?? interesting idea and I cant find enough info..

 

What do you want to know?

Get some 3/16ths steel, cut it to fit your TC cam tabs. I used a circular saw and an abrasive cutoff blade.

Then mark and drill holes to match the position of your cams. 14.5mm drill for the back, 15.5 for the front. Assuming you have Moog greaseable bolts. That should also work for OEM, but I'm not sure.

Bolt it all on, and then go get your alignment dialed in.

 

appreciate the info.. my assumption was the alignment was already dialed in and it was like a permanent mount so hard hits wouldn't throw the alignment off.. are your adjustments made with the upper arms??

sorry trying to picture this in my mind while also here at work..

 

That's the theory, and the point of doing it. However, you're going to have a very hard time making those plates match perfectly to your existing alignment. Mine is close enough I only needed a toe adjustment after installing.

You will want heim joint UCAs if you ever need to change alignment again though. Or you'll need to make several sets of plates and swap them in/out to adjust it. If you change ride height, add a winch/bumper, whatever.

TC and Dirt King both make an adjustable UCA, others too probably.

 

I was in a hurry when I did mine, and didn't take a lot of pictures. Its simple though, if you can cut/drill you can do it.
