Long Travel BS Thread

Good thing I'm not the one doing the work . Just got into this whole "long travel" side of the forum. So surely I'll have questions, thanks for the feedback though! Keeping my eyes out for An axle, like I said before.

 

I'll have to run stock axle with 2" spacers until I find the right one. Should be getting the truck back by the end of This week

 

I have no idea. I was going to regear to 4.88 with truetrac so stock wasn’t a concern

 

Ahh for sure. What's your shock / bump setup?

 

16" smooth, 4" 2.0 bumps, might be shortened to 2.5" stroke though.

 

If I do SUA in the rear with stock width axle and an elocker in my tundra housing, can I fit 35's on the front with no lift?

 

Where is the tundra housing... if you have stock width? Are you SASd? If not any 35s are gonna require some cutting into the lower cab/firewall. For proper clearance

 

Keep searching,I can message you some. I got mine complete with third for 200

 

Fuck... that's the deal I need lol! Yea dude if you happen to come across some, feel free to send em my way! Thanks man. Most I'm seeing on eBay are 550-700 plus I'll have to regear

 

But can I fit 35s with stock wheels and oem lift

 

Lmao...that's coming next. I barely fit 33x12.50s. I saw your old build and seems like you let them self clearance lol. I like the idea of that. Less work.

 

My first gen had zero rubbing....never did rub either

 

If you come across some for $200 or less sign me up! I can never find good deals on them

 

Hey guys I’m running the TC 3.5” kit. So I’m going to need new tires really soon, currently running 285/70 17. Im trying to decide between 33x12.5 and 35x12.5. Really wanting to do the 35s but not sure how bad the clearancing will be since I’m running a 3.5” kit and also the extra wear on parts compared to 33s. Anyone have any suggestions or personally use 35s with a chaos kit or other 3.5 kit? Also willing to take suggestions on Tires! Kindve wanting to try an M/T this go around.

 

35x12.5

 

Any clearance issues and if so how much did you have to do clear? I hear difference things from people some saying they had to do a lot of clearing and some people say slightly rubbing to no rubbing so I just wanna for someone that actually uses their Truck on a weekly basis

 

You should be fine with a little trimming

 

That’s what I’m hoping for at least, hoping nothing to crazy. Also thinking about going 5.13 i think it is for gears front and rear. Truck is driven about 50/50 between street and off-road. From what I’ve read, 4.88s with 35s will our the Truck around stock. So 5.13s will get the Truck Some more pep.

 

Yeah. Definitely regear. You will spend a lot on gas if you don’t lol. Just put 35s on my truck and I get 8-10mpg stock gears. But I live in the foothills

 

I used fo be on 285s as well. I bumped up to 315/70/17s. Just a tad smaller than 35x12.50. Im on a camburg kit
