Long Travel BS Thread

Hey all! Got a quick question I have an 01’ ext cab Tacoma and a guy locally is selling some 58” TG sliders meant for a single cab, I’m thinking because I’ll have bedsides these should be a good fit due to the rear bulge? Any experience on this matter coming from 1st gen LT owners would be much appreciated, Thanks!

 

Definitely a better chance of them fitting than the 4x Innovations extended cab sliders with a kickout - I cut those off of my truck when installing leaf spring mounts and the besides would have interfered a ton.

 

Let me know if anybody can get their hands on this. I've been searching and so far no luck.

 

Now how the hell did that get there.

 

Want

 

those front or rears?

 

Front. Already have rears.

 

Why don’t you just bring those on over to me. Consider it a wedding gift. Dinner and drinks are on me

 

You better be pouring pappy lmao

 

I will personally pour whatever is behind the bar for you if you show up to my wedding bearing gifts of 8” bypass shocks or a supercharger for a 4Runner.

Edit: or RCV front axles for a +3.5” kit.

 

Haha

 

See edit for new wedding invite/ drink options.

 

there are other versions as well if you want to shop around:

I’ll ask the boss
No promises

 

So, I’m done with having a stock rear with front long travel, but I’m also not fond of spending for sua especially when I tow dirt bikes every weekend. I’ve decided to stay spring over, and to get a 2.5x12” shock with a deaver pack, a u bolt flip with a superbump. I’m probably gonna get smoothies with adjusters so I can go stiffer when hauling bikes so the deavers last longer. If anyone has any other idea that has been in my situation I’d love to hear what you’d have to say. SUA is out of the question at this point cause this truck still needs to do a lot more than prerun!

 

@Bobby18 has a stock rear and +6 front. Unless he did his dually conversion already...

 

Cam cam just buy an ACLB and keep it stock (;

But to answer your question...

-Archive Garage Relocation
-King 2.5x12 smoothies w/ Adjusters or do a bypass setup
-Hydro Bumps of your Choice
-Deavers
-Extended brake lines

That should be enough. The problem you'll have is picking a leaf pack that's good at carrying weight and being soft unloaded. Adjusters aren't airbags. I'd just call up Deaver and tell them the weight of your bikes in the rear and see what they suggest.

 

Ive done the whole dirtbike/camping gear thing with bedcage deavers and smoothies, practically sits on the bumps loaded. Not horrible riding but by no means great.. If i did it again, I would look into a airbag setup, preferably one that allows travel (not attached on bottom) or quickly detachable

 

I’m spring under and still load my truck to the brim, three bikes to ocotillo isn’t a problem I don’t know why you’d discount sua so quickly.

 

Hahaha no hate towards sua I just don’t want to spend the money and I camp in my bed too so having a custom bed saver cage made would just be extra too ugh in a perfect world I’d go sua...
