Permanent Rausch Creek thread

How much do you think 12" Kings cost??

 

pretty close. I've already touched the bumps. I probably have an inch of cushion before I hit full internal shock compression.

 

Then shackle flip it and run limit straps. That way you can use all of your shock travel.

 

That's the shackle flip I have too. From @MY50cal. Shackles are at a perfect angle at ride height with dakars.

Haha I bought the b110's to replace my 3 month old OME shocks. Funny how that works...

 

My rear went up 3-1/2" from stock. My shaft is still good. Guys with 6" DB lifts do not have to touch theirs either.

 

Quite a bit. With shackle flip and 12" Kings, my rear drops down far. I have no issues.

 

I've been thinking about a shackle flip but then I'd have to chop my rear fenders to clear my 35's. Don't feel like cutting again. Too much work to make a clean cut especially when its cold out

 

B110'S cost $200 a pir.

So kings x4?

 

Close. Why did you buy such cheap ass shocks? Lol

 

Why would you have to cut your fenders more? Bumps stay in the same spot. Shackle flip just moves the rear axle down by a bit and adds some extra travel because of it.

 

Well our compressed length could be longer depending on the shocks, so I doubt you would gain much up travel. But you will gain a lot of down travel and some lift in the rear too

$187 at wheelers! On sale right now! Wheelers has amazing service!

 

Wheelers, Down south, and Headstrong are all great to deal with. Have used all three.

Note to self, buy less truck shit....

 

Exactly! $200 to my door and has the extended and compressed specs recommended by ATO!

 

Cuz I scrapped my fenders at full stuff when I went to Rausch and any more travel would ruin those fenders. I understand its for down travel but when I do the flip I'd want to do the fenders while I'm at it.

 

Ok. So you need to trim more anyway. Just wanted to make sure you knew that flip would not make you need to trim more.

 

But you might have to run a puck or bump extensions because the compressed length of your shock will be longer, thus preventing you from touching fenders maybe? IDK just thinking out loud haha

 

True. I have no experience with the B110s. But a longer shock in same mounts would need to be bumped lower to keep shocks from crunching.

 

Right. Cuz bump stop is what limits it. I'm running timbrens and they feel like they are too big. I'm thinking about cutting off half of the bumpstop. I'll have to take a picture but whenever I hit a bump in the road I hit bumpstop.

 

I was spoiled because I was able to weld my mounts where I wanted them so they worked with my exact suspension set up.
