Long Travel BS Thread

might have to cause their email for sales and service sucks ass.

 

They will probably have you send them the shocks in order to do it. The top caps are machined per shock to line up right.

 

Top caps should be the same but just the threads start at different rotations around the bottom is my guess.

 

Oooooo pretty. Need to get some 2-1/4” bolt on snouts though. Anyone want some weld on ones? 100$

 

Is the stock 2nd gen axle is 3” or 3.25” diameter tube?

 

3" afaik

 

Any second gen 4x4 guys had issues with their a-trac not working? I noticed mine wasn't working on my last trip to Moab and I can't figure out why. I've checked and tested the switch and it's fine, even jumped it to eliminate a bad button as the problem. Can't seem to find a wiring diagram; so I don't really know where to go from here.

Anyone have thoughts? Wiring diagram maybe?

I know it's the perfect excuse to just throw a proper locker in, but funds are severely lacking for that kind of fix.

Thanks

 

We have A-trac? Thought that was only on the 4runner.

 

On the off-road yes we have it for the front axle

 

That's pretty cool. What size wheel spacer you go with in the rear?

 

Hey doods quick question. When you guys go 33's and over are you having to trim your fiberglass fenders at all?
I have 3.5 camburg front and 4" McNeil fenders just went 33 and have rubbing at the CMC area. Bout to start cutting it up

 

What are your alignment numbers and wheel specs? Is it rubbing when cycling the suspension at full bump or just during normal driving?

 

Thanks. I don’t have the truck this second. But had it aligned again with +3.5 caster on each side. Have print out in truck. Just rubs while turning sharp and or hitting bumps while turning.

 

What are the wheel specs. Only time I’ve seen 33’s rub fiberglass during normal driving was on a truck that had wheels that weren’t in spec for tacomas

 

I had to cut 2.5" out of my 6" glass to clear 35's lol

 

Yeah but your kit is special

 

Your gabbed spindles probably increased the scrub radius over stock

 

I bet it's less or stock...my kpi is pretty much spot on...I think its cause the kit is 5" over per side and it has alot of bump travel

 

I needed to trim a tiny bit near the rear to clear 37’s with 6” McNeil.

 

shit!! ive cut, bashed and cut some more and still need to bash and cut, as im still rubbing, same kit you have, know what glass im running, as you delivered it to me, and 305/70/17 tires.
But my frame may not be straight and my alignment is close to stock, not ideal for lifted taco. Im thinking of tubing the cab next. If I cant get better alignment specs.
