The Lair

Congratulations Randy + Wife!!

 

Dude, last night was so much better than hospital nights. It was nice being in our own beds and also having a separate room (nursery) to take him for changings and feedings. We alternated and both got probably close to 5 hours of sleep over a 12 hour period and generally feel pretty rested this morning.

 

What are the chances that Fox makes an extended rear shock for the Tacoma?

 

Like an oem style bolt in shock? A b110 but fox version?

 

Yes. Exactly. Like this: https://www.headstrongoffroad.com/s...Extended_Length_Rear_Shock_(PAIR)_-_B110.html but Fox.

 

No not that I’m aware of. But look at accutune website. They adapt a tundra king shock to bolt onto a tacoma and it’s basically b110 length. They may do something similar for fox.

 

I'm not seeing anything. I've been looking for a while. Ah well.

 

@EatSleepTacos #GeorgeFab 's first project. Tails already bobbed! Maybe SAS as well?

 

These two different P/N’s list one as slightly less travel than the B110, and the other slightly more?

Actually no. This is not correct. The second P/N is still less travel than the B110

 

This is what happens when you are dumb/helpful. It’s why I stick to fart jokes, mostly.

 

That could work. Thank you, sir.

 

It’s pretty much the same. 10.8” vs like 11” of the b110. Excellent suggestion.

 

That .2 means a lot to some fella’s.

 

How important are piggyback or remote reservoirs? I mostly understand what they do, but do I really need them for what wheeling I do?

 

No, you’ll be fine. They’re more important for fine tuning shocks than anything. Extra oil cooling is a secondary benefit.

 

Cool. Thank you, pops. I may order some rears today.

 

What Randy said. My understanding is they are more tunable because you can make them softer by keeping more oil in the resi and visa versa. And I think the cooling really only comes into play for go-fast stuff.

 

Interested to see what the lead time is. Keep us in the loop.

 

See, you know things about things.
