South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

Self propelled?
I did my acre with a self propelled for 5 yrs. It got old real fast. Bought a used troy built Bronco rider for $300. Never looked back.

 

Correct depending on how much your rear lift is you'll be close to the full extension length of standard length billies. Wheeler's offroad publishes all of the billy measurements online. Full compressed length, extended length, and travel. Go out to your truck and measure from mount to mount. You want the shock where there is about 1/4-1/3 of the travel in bump and the rest in droop.

 

Where did you get that from if you look at the actual published measurements of the 5100 and the 5125 they are the same just different body sizes.

 

You'd fit right in in Cary, the Central Area for Relocated Yankees

 

Yeah, self-propelled. Got it when we were renting the house on the lake since it had a small yard.

Thanks, man. I'll have to get the extended length later down the line. Looks like B110 according to @Daria figures.

 

Hmmmm.

5100
Compressed length: 13.84
Extended 22.4

5125 (I was incorrect on this one you were right they are a little longer)
15.01
24.38

B110
16.34
27.28




The 5100 and 5125 have ~ the same amount of travel the 5125 is better for taller lifts where the B110 has more travel and is better for taller lifts as well. Toytec lists the 5100s up to a 2" lift the others are good for anything taller than that.

 

Ummm you don't need to worry about the extended measurement just the measurement at ride height if you get something that is too tall you won't have enough travel before it bottoms out but if you get something to short you won't have enough droop.

 

4 hour meeting. Finally over. Holy shit that sucked

 

I can imagine...30 mins is 29.5 minutes too long already as it is!

 

Eh I look at it this way and I have many ailments that could limit me but you only live once and F-it. I don't want to set the example to my daughter that if you get hurt you just whine and not do what you really want to but suck it up nancy and do it anyways. I have a frequent flier card with my ortho and the steroid injection man.

 

You ain’t kidding! Saying hello to someone up here and they look at you like you have 2 heads. Not all, but most are just straight up rude. After living in nc for 2 years in the Corps the wife and I knew we would end up back down south. Truly amazing how much nicer people are down south.

 

Making progress! Father in law flys in tomorrow. House is prolly 75 percent packed. Forgot how bad it’s gunna suck to move 5 deer mounts, 2 full body bear mounts, about 20 European mounts. I have a full body coyote from archery at the taxidermist but I will pick him up in the fall. Leaving Sunday for Myrtle, quick turn around and coming back Tuesday. Turkey season up here and I gotta kill a bird.
Quite sad tho, the taco is going to Myrtle for 2 weeks until we make it to Greenwood. Be stuck driving the wife’s rav4. She wants a 4Runner. Once the move is final I think we are gunna shop for one down there, I’m excited to mod it!

 

No clue, will be a welcoming change moving. I wore a pens shirt to a pens flyers games once, thought I was gunna throw down just from the comments and looks. People amaze me up here. Won’t miss it that’s for sure.

 

I’m the same. Love to talk and meet ppl. I could talk fishing and hunting hours, not in the north though!

 

Depends where ya go you get up to NH, VT, Maine and those guys are some serious folks about that stuff. Same with the rural areas in the Yankee states gotta get away from the cities.

 

Are you getting Joe's leaf pack too!? Wonder if there's a way to combine shipping...

 

You should do what Joe did with his rear shock set up it's pretty slick he did a good write up on it as well and has hella droop.

 

Don’t be rude and snippy
