And 14"

I’m hoping to beat my truck to that event.

 

With attaching the cage to the cab. Does it really matter if you connected them on the lower section of the pillar instead of the upper section? I’m considering attaching the cab to the cage from the middle down on the pillar.

 

those are my old 12s i traded that guy straight traded me those 14" coiliovers i got lol i should buy them back

 

LOL. Shhhhh don't tell them that!
I need a rear leaf kit soon, the more of them that go to links the more second hand parts for me to pick from.

 

More is always better. For the upper half just do a simple tab to the stock seat belt mount. It's quick , easy , and also the strongest part of the cab

 

Thanks. Will do bud.

 

Any recommendations on what valving to start with on 18" fox triple bypass on dmz spring under? Bought them used and came off a buggy so no idea what the current valving is.

 

run it to see how it works then go from there of what you need, would suck to revalve it and then have to start over again if it doesnt work and you loose that time the first time around

 

Tim will tell you to valve it at factory fox settings and tune from there.

I could be completely wrong or mixing up my numbers but for some reason 15/12 rings a bell lol

 

And tune with a lot of weight, everyone always told me leafs love weight over the axle and the best my truck felt was loaded down with a dirt bike, spare, and enough gear for a desert trip (4-5 full gas cans, gear, etc)

 

2.5 or 3.0 and if they are older foxes is the resi top mount or bottom mount

 

Yes, I've had mine on for about a month, and 3 wheeling trips.

All I can say is: DO IT!

 

Anything to take note about regarding whether they're mounted on top or bottom? Is that referring where the tube connects to the shock body? Looking for some rear bypasses

 

What was the turn around time like? I figured it would be a good upgrade rather than getting an oem replacement. After my LT is installed, that will be one of my next purchases

 

I gotta run a different tube layout and have to go remote reservoir, thanks for lookin out tho, mate!

Edit: Oh and the old PreRunner sold! So time to get the ball rollin now that I have truck money lol

 

How's the install? I'm guessing that it's not a bolt in part.

 

Go for bottom mount (resi port on the lower part of the body NOT the top cap) top mount resi on a bypass will have cavitation issues. Only ones I have seen done that way are older foxes and some rad flos

 

Guys not willing to sell the 12 in bypasses. Only wants to trade for a trailer....

 

I guess it's good to remember that old saying "money won't buy trailers"
