Florida B.S. Thread

Because all the LT guys aren’t about flex, they’re about hauling ass and douchebagging over sand dunes.

 

But dosnt flex help when hauling ass?

 

Just travel mostly.

 

lol, the big issue with the 63s compared to SUA and 4 link is the uptravel and why those guys "dont like them" haha

 

got my truck driving again! got the 3rd member put back in and everything all bolted back in!

 

The thing is I plan on doing 63's with sua lol

 

The clowns out west that swear by spring under are just too afraid to cut and weld.

 

exactly! haha, i want trailing arms and links. i also wanna get a Currie 9" axle or something of the sorts

 

Ive listened to reasons and try to understand, but i still dont understand the real benefit of SUA. Supposed to help with axle wrap as well, i can see how that might help.

 

Anyone interested in some bead locks?

Pro comp made some and a couple of our managers have them on their vehicles with no issues, but I guess there isn’t that much market for bead locks so they stopped making them.

Pxa5185 black or machined like 274 each right now. Nearly 120 off

I like those, but the wrong bolt pattern.

 

I just grabbed the first one that popped up. 5185-7984

Is 6x5.5

 

i was about to say, i know you work at 4wp, but we drive toyotas lol, not jeeps, haha

 

that post should have been 6x135 which is f150 lol

 

meh, same thing lol

 

I've asked too and from what I've gathered, with the spring-under, you can get more uptravel without negative arching the springs like we do with the spring-over. Seems like that would actually be a benefit for the 63s since my understanding it that they weren't designed to be negative arched.

 

Thats exactly why they go SUA on LT trucks. More up travel w/o negative arch or a ridiculously high ride height.
If you look at LT leaf packs, they have a lot of arch in them. That allows the up travel without going into negative. If they used those packs SOA the truck would sit really tall. SUA allows those highly arched leafs to get a lot of up travel before going negative and maintain a reasonable ride hight.

 

Sua has less ride height lol look at 5 lugs. That being said we definitely have wayyy more stock up travel. Its funny though because even when I said 63's sua and they were like no thats just a band aid.......wut lol
