Long Travel BS Thread

16s with like 1.25 inches down on the coil plate chinga.

im 8comp/8 on the coilovers and 15comp/10 on my bypasses

 

So could it be too much nitrogen? or I prolly need a 16" spring. I have almost zero preload and it seems to sit so high that my camber is off even fully maxed out.....Also my back I have Deaver f67.... But I'm positive the front is sitting too high due to my camber.

 

Your front seems high to me a bit.

But several have run those coils like you before, hell i plan on moving to that size next. Granted you are missing a lot of weight.

If you plan on running a bumper and a heavy duty skid it may be worth keeping them.

That said, you say you have almost 0 preload, on an 18'' coil you literally should have the collar all the way to the top. No threads should be showing anywhere. If you have any threads showing, crank them down and you'll be much happier.

 

I can't because of how my resis come out. I can't clear the output. so I need to put new fittings so they clear and go 90° down.....but there's only like 2 threads showing. maybe a 1/2 inch of preload

 

Thats a lot for an 18'' coil considering they are already preloaded about 1.5'' just to fit on there...

 

id say drop to a 16s right?

 

No not necessarily. Unless he doesn't want to swap the fitting.

18'' 600s can ride awesome and flex great. jason ran that for years.

Like I said, I plan on going that route. Happy with what i have for now though. But my front end is pretty damn heavy.

 

Naw, I bought mine new. Got all the pillars done, back seat still fits, and the 3 main roof tubes bent up. We'll see how long notching takes

 

Any input on running a locker on a daily? i know that it can be dangerous if you dont know how to drift but what abut tire wear and other factors

 

Is it going to permanently on or on a switch like an elocker or airlocker?

 

Met up to buy a surfboard off craigslist in SD and the dude had a 2nd gen tacoma with front glass, all pro lt kit, stock rear, and running a campershell. It was a clean ass rig, anyone know if he's on here?

This. It's selectable. Go for it. Great choice. Or the new Harrop.

 

A spool may be problematic, but anything selectable is just fine

???

 

What LT kit? Id look through your build thread but im lazy lol.

 

harrop makes an elocker for our front and rear diffs now.

Its an E locker that uses an electromagnet, not an actuator. Looks really nice. Not sure its worth the cost but still pretty cool. I like the feature that it unlock temporally if there is a sudden change of direction.

 

I'm getting ready to fab a bumper. using rectangle tube. Will be different than most I've seen. That should add a good bit of weight. Thinking I'll just revalve the resis and let the collar all the way up. If that doesn't do it between the bumper and collars I'll drop to 16s. I am running the Solo kit with fabled spindles and heims so that could be different from Jason's. We'll see soon enough.....thanks for the input.
