Long Travel BS Thread

NICE

I like those

 

because i work for Bilstein and i see what these shock can really do, plus i get the hook up on them too haha

 

Makes sense...didn't even know they made legit bypasses. Should be cool to hear your perspective on them, any plans on the rear install? I just scheduled mine for the beginning of june.

 

plus Bilstein be around longer then king and fox they know whats up when it come to shocks !

 

putting the shocks on tomorrow but the dmz kit going to have to what.. need to pay off my 4-runner first

 

Oh they make LEGIT bypasses

 

Damn you arnt kidding...even in ANGRY TAN!

 

Lookup Bilstein Blackhawk, they are like $2500+ each

 

Yea man I totally did, def not messing around with that shock.

 

look who came by the shop 550 to the rear wheels

 

I had the exact opposite experience. Needed bushings for my Toytec Coilovers, called Bilstein directly, they looked up the private label part number, found the bushings I needed and I went and picked them up in Poway at a fraction of the cost Toytec wanted.

 

Yes there are someone else’s I did not make them but I have a boxed lower control arm and a tube one, the tubes one is the same as the total Chaos lower arm

 

You can get 14in of travel out of it, I dont have the files to make the huds, yes the boxed lower arm is capable of bypass and coil overs, there are no bushings and there is steering components and I have files for limiting strap for all the mounts

 

The person I bought the files has given up on the project around 3 years ago of you are looking for pictures text me at7146238426

 

@Yotamac

 

I bought second hand blackhawks for linking one of my other trucks. I was told they were 16s" but sadly they are 14s".

 

Bummer, those are probably rare to find used

 

Is this a gusset set that you sell?

 

Not a bad place to take the truck after picking it up!

 

Wasn't someone recently looking for total chaos shackles for a first gen?

Also not exactly long travel but some of you may have ran this set up. Anyone ran the total chaos rear shock relocation kit or any shock relocation for spring over to mount a 2.0x10 shock or bypass in the rear? Any good experiences with it? What leafs did you pair it with.

This truck isnt going to be long travel, front is mid travel, and the goal for this truck is slower trails and better handling for long term trips. No SUA or links in the future.

Stock leafs and shocks are tired and need an upgrade so trying to decide if its worth it or just replace leafs and stock length shocks and be happy.
