Long Travel BS Thread

You won't be disappointed. His stuff is great, and shows up undamaged.

 

Lies, mine showed up with a crack on one of the bedsides. Luckily it was minor and below the line where I needed to cut for my bumper anyways.

Other than that the fitment was pretty darn good. Tail light could be a little better but that’s a tough spot and you got to remember that fiberglass is never perfect. Way better than my front trailer products ones. I’m torn on the fiberworks or adv front one piece whenever I decide to change front fenders.

 

hi tw friends been so long since i posted

 

We've had three sets make it to the east coast w/o issue, but shit certainly happens.

 

Large, flimsy, fragile products getting shipped by freight. Yeah shit is gonna happen from time to time. My order was also early on in them being a company so they could’ve improved packaging

 

My bedsides got punched with a forklift on the trek to VA. The guys at the Richmond depot that loaded them into my truck did a real good job hiding that side of the box, so I didn't see it until I got home. I wouldn't be surprised if they were the ones that did it. Luckily though it's only noticeable as a couple of starbursts in the gel coat, but you have to be looking for them. I didn't even notice the starbursts until after I had them on the truck. No damage visible on the backside.

 

Can anyone do me a favor and tell me what the width of their truck is with +4 fiberglass upfront or just the width from tire to tire with +3.5? I'm trying to figure out if my truck will fit in this garage and I dont have access to my truck right now being out of state. My guess is between 80-84". Thanks

It's a 2nd gen

 

Gonna depend only rims and tire size. With 3.5” back spacing rims and 12.5” wide tires I’m at 88” last time I measured

 

Tire to tire I think mine was 87" just measured it the other day

 

Thanks guys, I appreciate it.

 

Are you running TPMS with your 35s, 37s, 39s, 41s tires?

 

I disabled tpms. Took 5 minutes

 

Looks like it's time for a cage

 

technically the cab is designed to act as a rollbar... to some extent...

 

Yes

 

Can you call to verify? Most places have exceptions for road legal vehicles. Or at least road legal vehicles usually have a separate set of rules

 

I just want to jump the truck. Why is this so difficult

 

Where did you buy? Or are the same as stock?

 

Stock. I pulled them from my oem wheels

 

Hey all, looking for some accurate info into making my truck be able to go fast in the sand without detremental damage, a little history:
2005 prerunner dcsb
Converted to 4x4 with fj cruiser transmission and transfer case
3.73 factory rear lsd
3.73 4runner front diff
Bilstein 5100 with ome 885@.85
Jba uca
Dakar rear leafs
Bilstein 5160s
Extended rear brake lines
Ironman 285/70 mud terrains

Took the truck out last weekend under some powerlines in some really deep mud and wouldnt get stuck if I tried, spent a whole day cleaning mud out from every crevice and promised myself I would never go mudding again.

Took it out to fort fisher beach today in NC and absolutely loved driving in the sand, wanted to go faster but my down travel prevented me from feeling like I wouldnt break something.

Wanted some advice on what basic parts are needed to be able to soak up the beach. I will never be able to enjoy slow technical offroading as I am on the nc coast and the closest offroading park is 4 hours away (uwharrie).

TL;DR I want my truck to go fast on beach in 4hi. Where to start.
