Long Travel BS Thread

Sets the preload when they’re together - use a brass drift if needed to get it unstuck.

 

Thank you! The upper collars are a lot tighter than the lowers even after spinning a couple threads but I’m not afraid of giving them a good tap now.

 

The top blue collar is for preload. I believe the silver collars are stop collars for the upper spring. The lower is the stop and the other is a jam nut to keep the lower in place.

 

Did you loosen the SHCS that squeezes the blue collar to lock it in place?

 

Yea everything is loose. The upper silver aluminum collar spins it just seems really tight. It’s the same way on both shocks.

 

Like already stated, there are two collars because one is a jam collar to lock the other in place.

They are there to stop the top coil from compressing past a certain point.

Once the spring divider slider hits the collars you take the upper coil out of the picture and engage only the bottom spring.

You can use them for a lot of things depending on your coil spring rates and lengths.

They prevent your top coil from coil bind when set right.

They can be used for ride height adjustment if you are using a shorter top spring and longer lower spring

They let you tune when you want to go from the combined softer spring rate to a stiffer spring rate of just the lower coil.

There's a lot of different ways to use dual rate sprints to tune how you want your vehicle to sit and handle

 

overkill for a daily??

 

Depends what your commute looks like. But it looks weird to me and it’s a furd

 

10 miles a day to and back from work no faster than 50 mph need to put the 40s back on it to filler out some more

 

As much as I need a tow rig and trailer for the Tacoma, I love my little dd car that gets good mpg and I don’t have to worry about.

 

Does anyone know the exteded/collapsed lengths of the King TC spec LT shock? Part #: TC5119-03

 

Wanted to double check my driveway alignment since i went with the Poly Performance TacoTabs and the upper heim arm.

I'd say combined i fkn nailed it. Minus the toe lol



Drives so damn nice

 

Now weld your cams in place and only ever have to worry about toe again.

 

lock tabs bro. they aint going anywhere.

 

Has anyone mounted air bumps to the insides of the frame rails? If so, have you had any issues? I’m struggling to find a good mounting place.

 

Where can I find these?
