Long Travel BS Thread

wtf did i just scroll through

 

was there a booger on your mouse ?

 

Probably just me being stupid

 

The time may have come to move to a bigger truck, kinda sad but a excuse to start another build! On that note just trying to see what a reasonable selling price would be for my 2005 LT taco with 85,000 miles. Has dmz rear end and LSK front with bypasses and coilover brace.

 

Another one bites the dust.

Id guess anywhere from 20-28k I think. But your in Cali so who knows. Could be more.

 

If I do go that route I am trying to think of it as a new LT tundra being born!!!

 

Anyone know off the top of their head if TC 3.5 axles will fit a Camburg 3.5 kit? Seems that Camburg is pretty busy these days and won't be putting out axles for a good month or two...

 

Anyone have 2 extra arp studs laying around? I want to replace the last two studs on the wheel spacers wasn't sure if anyone had a couple extra laying around I could buy off them

 

No reason they shouldn't, neither kit increases the wheel base as far as I'm aware

 

That's what I assumed, but I wanted to make sure there might not have been a slight difference in length that could mess something up. If they are both 3.5" longer, then it should be fine.

 

It couldnt hurt to call tc and see what they say though

 

Yeah that's the plan. Figured I'd ask here and see if anyone swaps them around freely like that without issues

 

the stock rear seems to work so much better with 500lbs in the rear lol

 

Is there an alignment shop near East LA / Long Beach that does a good job at setting alignment on long travel setups? Maybe within 25 miles or so?

 

There's a place in Culver City called Bagge & Sons. Old school alignment shop. Read somewhere on here that a guy had his truck aligned by them after a LT kit install. Worth a shot giving them a call.

 

Thanks for the heads up @Tacomoto23. They're not open on weekends otherwise I'd give them a call. Good yelp reviews for them though!

 

Yeah that's the only bummer! Glad I could help. If you can manage to get down there during the week day, let me know how they treat you. Another shop to check out is Johnson's alignment over here in Torrance. Maybe give them a try?

 

Anyone on here make any fender well liners for their fiberglass front fenders? Interested to see if anyone has.

Crazy to see how much is exposed especially the air filter when the stock liner is removed.

 

Not a 2nd gen but JD did out of mud flaps I think. @Cr250jumper

I asked him about them and this is what he said:

As for the fender skirts, they are made out of .090" abs. I found a company here in salt lake and I bought a 4'x8' sheet for around $50.
I made templates out of poster board. I bought these things called clip nuts? They are literally a clip with a nut coincident with the center of the clip (I'll have to find a pic). So I just used the inner lip of my Glassworks fenders and drilled holes at an equal distance. I also used some factory holes near the engine compartment that the stock liners used. My fenders are line-xed so the inner fiberglass lip is a little stronger over just the gel coated glass.
The abs is your best bet. It is rigid as well as being flexible enough not to need a heat gun to install.

I also went to Napa And bought one truck mud flap for $15 and made mud flaps for the front. This reduced the amount of mud, snow, rocks that are kicked up onto my side windows.
