Long Travel BS Thread

I spent way to much time trying to figure out what you ordered from Revzilla for your truck before I realized it was just a paint box LOL

 

Tc mid travel sua revived.

 

Regardless of shock length, due to the confines of stock hangers the Mac the leafs can cycle is 12 inches of travel without being wider. Partly why the dmz kit and other LT sua kits are wider as they need it to House a wider pack to get bigger travel numbers.

 

Longer?

 

thicker

 

If you’ve still got it all I’d be interested, PM me

Question for you guys. I want to run my theory by TW on my alignment.

Alignment shop just did my LT alignment twice ($$) and we still can not get the camber or caster dialed in to TC's specs using the recommended procedure.

My Theory is my heavy steel bumper and winch along with King springs might not be set up for the weight thus sagging the front of the truck. Thoughts?

 

What are your current alignment numbers?

 

What are the specs you are trying to get and what specs are you getting?

 

Also, what size/rate springs are you running?

 

So TC recommends 3.5 to 6.0 Degrees of Caster and -1.0 to +1.0 Camber and this is where I am at:

King 3.16.600 Springs

 

It is going to be tough to get more than 3 degrees of caster while keeping your camber between 0 and -1. If you drop your caster a little on both sides down to the 3-3.5 range I bet you will have the adjustment needed to get the camber right. You aren't too far off and to be honest there are plenty of people that run up to -2 degrees camber on Long travel rigs, just have to watch your tire wear.

 

Are heimed UCAs worth the upgrade cost? I'm putting together my spreadsheet to scare my bank account.

 

unless your really gonna be using it and beating it id say no... personal preference though.

 

nice. sounds like more money to spend on shocks then.

 

They do give you a little more option to mess with your alignment. I am in the process of modifying my uppers to have heims because I am out of adjustment on the alignment and would like a bit more caster.

 

exactly lol

 

Hmm, I suppose I won't know my adjustment range until I install them. That's tricky then.
