Long Travel BS Thread

I mean I was getting 17-18" before, strapped close to 15". But price of new leafs and shocks anyways, might make the juice worth the squeeze.

 

Went by DMZ this morning to pick up some brakelines, they were closer than I thought. 10 min drive, and met Tim, awesome guy to deal with and sure knows his stuff.

 

Anyone in the market? Only 85,000

This led to a fun discussion of what a prerunner is in the socal craigslist thread. Astroturf has me going back and giving it a look again and again, maybe if it goes down to $8500

 

I knew Toyota’s only appreciated in value. We will see second gens at Barrett Jackson soon.

 

King or Fox 2x12.

If you want to be fancy a two or three tube bypass of the same thing.

 

He forgot to post the price he wants to sell it for and only posted what he spent. If I tally up all my receipts then I’m probably around that price as well lol

 

I don’t think yard saling would be a thing if people did what this guy and several others in the SoCal Craigslist finds thread do.

 

Thank you, do these require extended shock hoops? Dont care if they do just another reason to whip out welder

 

Yes. You'll need a new shock hoop off the frame and new tabs on the axle.

 

Hell yeah thanks man

 

Yeah that’s a hard sell at $25k lol. 85k says he’s out of his mind

 

85k and doesn’t even have color matched glass ha

 

Maybe forgot a zero and was thinking pesos

 

lol same with me and thought it was still sketchy. Most DIY mounting and wiring stuff has to be redone from what generally happens.

 

you're running 14s right?

 

nope, just 12’s

 

DM me if you'd like a set of the ones I'm making. I've got a second prototype set to install, and need to finish my jig before they go into production, with a fully bolt on option if you don't have a welder.

 

Include a low mileage tundra and flat bed trailer for that price, and would still be overpriced imo

 

I’ve picked up a pair of 2017 Fox Raptor shocks, they are 31” extended, 12.25” stroke, and 18.75”.
3.0’s with a piggyback 2.5” reservoir.
9 internal bypass zone that I’ve heard works pretty well!

I got some DMZ lower tabs to mount them to the axle, but I decided on what to do for the upper mount.
I’d love to do something like archive garage’s mount, but I doubt it’ll clear the reservoir and the 3.0.
I think something like Total Chaos mounts will provide clearance.

Will I be ok without a crossmember at the top of the hoop going through the bed ?

Any ideas, recommendations, or pictures are appreciated !
