Long Travel BS Thread

does anyone know or can measure the distance between the two red lines? [from mating surface to hub face]


its the hub for an 05-14? tacoma

 

Calipers. Measure the small flange to the surface it is sitting on. Measure the large flange to the white surface. Take the difference. The error will be on how true the table it is sitting on.

 

It blew me away when they took mine without even asking anything haha

 

Correct, but I dont have one to measure

 

How precise of a measurement are you looking for. I have a hub sitting on my welding bench, but all my real precision measuring tools are at home in my machine shop.

 

Anybody in the Temecula area precision alignment will align long travel any time. Even 4 link and adjust the rear axle.

What do they charge for the full 4 wheel alignment ?

 

Nvm, didn't understand the context of your question. Thought you had one in your possession already.

 

2.156"

 

Not sure. I had toe set only and was $50. I think he said $100 for full front.

 

Thank you!

An approximate would have done, but I have that now, thanks

 

The local alignment/tire place near me aligned it how I wanted it. The dude is pretty good, even when I'm sitting at 3 degrees of castor and everything else is lined out and I'm like "can you do more?" and he just shrugs and keeps going until I'm smiling. I always drop him a tip (It's like 2 alignment guys that work in a big tire shop)

 

took my truck to dezert rat for an alignment and they told me my "lift kit".. i liked that, was "junk" and was only so much they could do.. i hate people haha so i took it to a local shop and had no problem

 

Since we are on the subject, any numbers you guys prefer for alignments? Recently got mine done and the castor isn't ideal for me (can't give any numbers as apparent Toyota's printer was broken)

 

I like when guys look at my LT and go, "bro I could have built you something like that and got you waaaaaay more lift out of it"

 

I posted mine a page or two back. I'm pretty happy about my caster. Went to local Toyota of Apex for my alignment

 

i love it when they call it a lift kit... they told me that then they were telling another customer how amazing the new procomp drop bracket and rancho shocks on a 12' tacoma would out perform anything haha at that point i just walked out.

 

I don't blame you. DB kits sucks ass and don't do shit unless you just want to look tall and ride around all day long. Procomp sucks IMO!!!

 

hahah did you tell them your "lift kit" is probably worth more than the cars they drive

 

Thats like the "offroad" shop right by my house, basically just a retailer that can install basic stuff. I asked about a Ruffstuff 9" setup/installed and the guy wrote it all down and my info and said he'd call me with a quote, dude probably didn't understand it needs a bit of welding.. .never got a call back lol. Maybe I'll go back someday and ask what happened and watch them stutter
