Long Travel BS Thread

Just be ready to catch the pieces when you pull the blue know off. I lost a spring and ball and it took me like 2 hours to find them

 

Slide rack is in I'm getting the JD Fab / Howe steering pump mod as well so I'm super curious to feel the end result !

 

Sorry not sorry but I'm going to copy you on the silver vein I think it looks slick. I can't wait to get my kit!!!

 

Where did that frame plate come from?

 

Everything is by @81Trekker at JD Fab in Esco.

 

Thanks @Basikbiker that worked a lot better.

 

Yea that makes sense...sorry explaining through words is a mofo sometimes lol

 

I'm really not sure why I thought the way I did it the first time was correct, this way makes much more sense.

And it works. A quick mock-up showed no perceptible bump-steer through the full range of travel.

 

A well respected fabricator buddy showed me that trick...its alot easier than the theoretical math stuff lol

 

Anyone have any leads on a set of 2nd gen OE CV outers ?

 

Flea Bay is where I get mine.

 

i got two complete OEM 2nd gen axles sitting in my shed.

 

For a Tacoma? The 4runner and tacoma axles have different inner components. If he's trying to make the 934 cv's work, he will need the 29 spline outer joint for the tacoma. I had to purchase tacoma axles because my FJ has 30 spline outer joints.

To be clear, I'm talking about the inner axle side of the outer joint, not the wheel bearing side. Those are interchangeable. I measured both the splines and the components for the outer joint. They are all different. Different balls, different cages....

 

they're off a 2nd gen tacoma.

I am running taco axles and suspension up front and built up some extras

 

If you are willing to sell them PM me

 

good ones, need a solid set of OE outers for my new +4's w/ 934 inners.

 

After a few months of research and talking to a few members on here I think I finally decided what I'm gonna do to the truck. Lsk +4.5 2WD front kit w/ King 10" coilovers, 2x2 bumps, & straps. For the rear, Giant Motorsports 64" leaf kit with their 3.0 "Link Killer" bypasses on a custom bed cage (from a fabricator thats built a few things for me), 2x2 king bumps, brake lines, & straps. Also some form of cam tab gusseting (haven't decided yet) and Fiberwerx +6 glass. Obviously this is quite a hefty build for a DD but if i'm spending all this money on the truck, I want to go all out and get the most out of it. I'd love to hear some feedback from you guys and if you were to change something about this please tell me. I'm young and this would be my first time doing any sort of big suspension upgrades, however, this is something i'm passionate about and after doing a bunch of off-roading w/ just 5100s, I want a lot more out of this truck.

 

Go for it

 

Skip the link killer bypasses and get some real 2.5 or 3.0 triples.
