Long Travel BS Thread

Looks awesome! And I spy a Mob Mount

 

If you need cash you could sell me your s/c

 

@dwphoto before you got there I think

 

GKG! sweet truck as well

 

It's got over 100k miles on it. You wouldn't want it.

 

I’m thankful I have friends who are painters lol

 

Niiiice! Should be fun, we're going to bbq for everyone too.

What days next weekend are you going to be out? I'll probably be out there every weekend for an hour now that the truck is shreddy again.

We'll be here! And throwing more meets going forward. Pismo (Oceano Dunes) are a good time.

I have a mix of Fiberwerx front with trimming for 37's and Glassworks Unlimited rear, they're both awesome products.

 

I’ll be there Friday afternoon through Sunday afternoon. I try to camp around the end of the beach back by the bathrooms. I don’t remember how much they close off for “winter” but usually I’m around like 5/6. Swing on by if you see me. There will be at least 6 of us

 

Rad, I'll make my way out.

 

Hey you 2nd gen guys

How long are your links?

Double cab short bed

 

You've probably already seen this, but just in case not:

48”

 

Hash yeah
Flat tire and then boom trophy truck hahaha

 

It happens to the best of us, I had a cracked windshield so the only way forward I could see was to cage and link

 

I have a blown rear end
So the only solution is full floater
And links

 

Ah, definitely calls for that.. but mostly a set of blown gears usually leads to an LS swap too

 

That's on the list too
But
Like
8-12 months after the new rear end

 

I needed this hell yeah

 

Mine are 55” eye to eye but I have a one piece drive shaft. Google 4 link calculator and you will find some spreadsheets to play with that will help you learn how each factor affects the whole system. Also google 4 link design and look for an article from petersons 4wd mag, it is a great overview of some basic rules of link design. Ignore anything you see about 4 link road race car design ...they have about 2” of travel so you’ll never get a mental picture of what happens with 20+ “ of travel.

 

Yeaaaa! Love that thing especially cause the entire "dash" is metal so can basically put it anywhere. I need to get another one for the Tacoma so I don't have to swap it between trucks.
