Long Travel BS Thread

It really depends on the shape of your lca's the DK, TC race arms, and 2wd +4.5 kits are definetly more stable to lift from

 

Mine are 25" long and I'm going to be running dakars....I would get like 27"

All pro lines are 25"

 

I don't know if there are any harbor freight stores near you but I've got no complaints about their cheap-o 2ton with a high reach. I've thought about this to make it easier to jack from any point on the truck.

Ah nice man, yea that's not a bad call at all. I assume this works pretty well for your setup right?

 

We bought a used aluminum Craftman jack from a race team at the Leduc Swapmeet. What they did was weld an extension permanently on the jacking pad. I imagine you could do the same to a HF one. Makes life much easier with the extension.

 

Sdhq sells the pro eagle adjustable exiting seperate from the jack as well. They are very reasonably priced. Somewhere around $50

 

With just the jack I can lift the tires off the ground around 2 inches from the skid plates, with the 3.5LT kit you might still need a jack extension.

 

Based off the jack that I use with its max height and a 4x4 I think I am getting around 20 inches to barely clear the wheels without a slope. Looks like I will have close to four inches extra with this!

 

I need an extension (4x4) with 34's and a 3.5 kit using the HF 2ton

 

so i think i need some camber

 

you need new everything lol

 

I either end up with too much camber or too little. Killed my tires.

 

camber doesnt kill tires

toe definitely will though

 

true lol drove 300 miles with positive toe... tires were toast

 

any leads on 16" 2.5 king coilovers? theres a set on DR but didnt know if anyone saw others. Also 2.5 or 3.0 king 18s

 

Theirs a bunch of sets on rdc

 

yea just saw a set for 600, look brand new from the pics. just messaged him

 

I'm sorry ...but what the hell?

Camber if not set well can totally ruin tires.

Toe more so, but camber will as well

 

It takes foreverrrrrr for camber to wear out a tire. If you killed all 4 I guarantee it wasnt camber

 

Anyone know of a company that makes a 6 opening rocker switch panel? There's a couple but are from China and will take a month to get here
