Alabama thread!

I said f it I’m going all in lol. 5.29’s and double lockers lol

 

I thought that, but it feels like the springs are overpowering the dampening and aren’t giving the shocks a chance to do any work if that makes sense. If I crank the adjusters to stiff the ride is actually smoother at speed but still rough on small stuff. They probably need to be revalved, but I don’t want to spend that when I plan on going LT anyway.

 

The bolt that came with it stripped completely. The thing that goes inside bent backwards...and is also stripped lol I was only using a hand wrench, guess I gave it one too many ugga duggas

 

Just wondering but why are you going LT? It’s a whole different animal than mid travel. Be prepared to have stuff break more often and do maintenance more often as well. Not say anything bad about it just saying the realities of it.

 

Well after a couple of weeks and help from @TacoAlaMode I've replaced all the suspension on the front of the truck. I think my drive shaft is giving a small vibration that is getting looked at on Tuesday.

 

I think it would be a fun project. Again cost to use is out of the window, but it looks fun as hell to be able to hit stuff a little faster and get more travel out of the front.

 

Lol, yea just hope your up for the financial burden it brings lol. Make sure you buy extra extended cv and tie rods. Your not gonna be able to go to a parts store and buy that lol

 

This video makes me want to get LT but I can’t drop 10k right now lol and it’s not practical for how I wheel haha.

Lol this rc be my second if it goes like the first that’ll be easy I wanna do it before the front diff oil change also gotta change that axle so it’s a 3for.

 

I'm sitting on a bunch of shit I need to finish Diff oil, ECGS, head light/fog light upgraded wiring kits, water pump, thermostat, coolant, ARB bumper, etc

 

Lol I’m always open just a long ride but got impact and..... idk half luck skill gumption? I gotta get these sos plates ready in prep for that bumper I really enjoy the rc.

 

I just don't really have anywhere to work on mine. My carport is rocky and it sucks trying to lay down or kneel on it

 

My garage is good creeper rolls smooth, actually think I’m gonna get my carport behind the shed concreted along with this lean too on the side so that’ll add a bunch of working space.

 

That'd be super nice

 

Bounce comes from the shock not being tuned correctly for the spring rate and the vehicle. Take the shocks off and run 700# springs it'll bounce like you're on a trampoline. If you tune the shocks right those 650s will be fine. I'll probably end up with 600s on my LT and that has a greater ratio acting on the springs
