Long Travel BS Thread

Yeah @jeff b I'll for sure be taking it easy at first until i get familiar with the area.

 

Appreciate it!! Yeah too many times to count for sure haha.

 

Some where in my build thread pages like 80-90 I had a rough parts list for the first time I made it.

 

Is removing the front spring hanger similar to the rear is it just riveted on there? Couldn’t tell if there was anything in between frame and gas tank.

 

Correct. I believe there are 4 rivets each

 

not sure if i asked this before but are any of you +2" guys running fiberglass? if so, how wide? I like the look of +4" glass, but i'm worried it will provide too much coverage and make my truck look like it skipped leg day.

 

Here’s mine back when I was +2” with some 3” trailer products fenders and 33’s

 

Im not a +2” guy but I run 1.25” spacers up front and have the McNeil 2” glass. I’m a fan.

 

You will be fine with 4”. It’s not as much coverage as you think

 

I'm running 4" fiberglass with +2" and 315 tires on 9.5" (4.5 BS) wheels. It fills out the glass perfectly.

 

What brand do you guys recommend? Mcneil?

 

McNeil and adv have the shape I prefer. I have mcneils and fitment along the door and pinch weld leaves a little to be desired but isn’t too bad.

 

I'm running Advanced Fiberglass Concepts.

 

How is the fitment on adv? Are you running the bed sides as well?

 

I'm running fenders and bedsides. I don't have anything else to compare it too, but the fitment seems good. The fenders took a good bit of fitting around the headlights and where they meet the A pillars. The bedsides fit really well. Just a little fitting around the taillights. The cutout for the filler neck and gas door was a PITA.

 

I like my Mcneil +2 fenders but for +4 I think fiberwerx looks the best. Personally not a fan of how rounded the fenders are on +4 mcneil's and advance... Fiberwerx are way more aggressive looking

 

His truck would look mean with the fiberwerx fenders

 

Its a little late seeing as i just spent 1300$ on an adv setup

 

Exactly my experience with ADV as well.
Gas door is a pain to do, but I’d expect the same with any others.
