Long Travel BS Thread

I do I can give you an approximate because its bolted on rn. But from the middle of each bolt its about 4 1/2 inches And five from bolt end to bolt end.

Edit: just saw your picture and they look longer than mine

 

That truss is only for pre-Tacoma 8" Toyota axles (and to current 4Runner axles)

All Tacomas, T100, and Tundra axles are "8.4" axles, (except 1st gen 4cyl 5 lug) Still an 8" ring gear but the 3rd has a bearing back brace hence the different shaped rear sump.

There is no truss for the "8.4" so you gotta work with what you have.

 

Yup. Pretty positive that they are the longer ones.

Thanks for measuring man!

 

Has anyone welded a bead behind the stock alignment tab instead of the Tc gussets ? Pics ?

 

Relentless fab makes a truss for that axle.

I believe @jberry813 had one.

 

Ya np and if you want a pic i can snap some for you

 

No worries. I was 95% sure, but your measurement makes me certain I have the wrong ones haha.

 

Yeah yours are def long bed ones lol

 

Yeah haha. We told tim short bed, but shit happens. Sure he will be cool about it all.

 

Lol Im shure if you call tim he'll switch em out for ya. Your gonna love the kit, i getting mine a wellllllllllll needed refurbishment rust= Leaf cancer lol.

 

I wasn't satisfied with the government taking all my money for handouts to others so I decided to waste it myself.

 

Or you watch this thread too much and then Poof your trucks has long travel.

 

So...is the giant motor sports kit decent? Or was this solely in reference to the shocks he exclusively makes?

Coot

God damn horizontal phone! Why the fuck do I always do that shit!!

 

I'd get the one by @RelentlessFab as its made for that axle. That one isn't.

 

My tundra truss from @RelentlessFab just got here last week and will soon be on the axle!

 

I think I have that truss laying around the yard from a friend's pre-Tacoma project. Do you know if it would it fit the 2nd gen e-locker housing?

 

Well e lockers are 8'' diffs and based off the pretaco 8'' diff...so possible..But i don't think so.

 

X2......Relentless fabrication makes one. @jberry813 was the first to have the template made. It's a 5 piece that fits good. I did mine and absolutely love it. Think it was like around $100 for the 3 pieces. You may need to modify slightly based on your particular setup but the truss in your picture looks like a definite no go to me.
