Long Travel BS Thread

Was thinking the urethan in case of wear I can just replace that part

 

That’s the one I want. 4pin w/scoop.

 

I had it 4x4 with a Chevy trans and transfer case and Toyota front diff and rear diff. I got everything to work. When I went LS I decided to ditch the 4x4

 

Yeah i'm mainly worried about clearance between the toyota front diff and the oil pan.

 

To make life easy go dry sump. A custom pan can be made, but the oil filter will need relocated as well. Alot of different things lol. I've been there done that.

 

Got my tundra rack swap done...works really well with 37s so far

 

Man if you start a dedicated thread on modified tundra racks, you got to use your bio description in the title.

 

I had a pair Hanneman and Fiberwerx front fenders for a f150, and the shape/style was the same. The only thing I didn't like was that Fiberwerx were half the thickness of the Hanneman. Maybe to allow for flex but I like how sturdy the Hanneman are.

 

Anyone have a preferred brand for Drive-Shafts? Or stick with oem? Mine took a beating on the Rubicon last week and should be replaced. Then I’ll rebuild my current one as best I can as a trail spare

 

I know 2nd gens May not be as easy to come by but I’ve got 3 oems for less than $150 on average. @mechanicjon knows a guy that has a lot of yota parts near PHX.

@1997tacomav6 said he got one with all spicer joints here for under $700 I think

I think they also have 2nd gens.

 

Mine was 495.00 shipped i believe

 

Is it oem? Can’t really tell from their descriptions. Any issues? I’m looking at $550 for my second gen which is over $100 cheaper than anywhere else.

 

It's something we're discussing. I'll post up if we decide to develop a sway bar system for the +3.5" kits.

 

Those arent going anywhere

 

I’d tell them to post pics of their welds.

If they aren’t stacking dimes every time then how can they question your work?

 

The welds look OK.

Looks too cold though

 

You rang?

 

Keyboard warriors dude. If it works, it works.

 

Don’t let it bother you man. Especially if you welded them yourself. I’ve done some great welds, and some welds that are disgusting lol.

 

I won't post pics of my welds then. But they don't break. Those are good for upside down.
