Long Travel BS Thread

Pretty good for a six year old kid half blind from mercury poisoning.

 

Isn't All-Pro already the Harbor Freight of LT though?

 

Lowes

 

and Trail Gear is Home Depot

 

This is my favorite part:

Note: All the main components are included and fit properly. Different models (FJ/4runner) may require longer tie-rod extensions. A Get-R-Done attitude coupled with the Proper Tools, Grinding, Welding and removing rusty pain in the ass bolts may be needed. As noted above we recommend having an off-road truck shop do this or at least have a friend and a case of beer.

 

Note: All the main components are included and [have a 15% chance of fitting] properly. Different models (FJ/4runner) may require longer [and completely different thread size] tie-rod extensions. A [Do-It-All-Again] attitude coupled with the Proper Tools, Grinding, Welding and removing rusty pain in the ass bolts [will] be [required if you don't want this junk to break]. As noted above we recommend having a [clueless] off-road truck shop do this [that won't tell you to get your money back] or at least have a [professional fabricator] friend and a case of [money].

 

Ha...ha...ha.... yeah a truck with a functional bed.... I uh. I uhm uhhhh yeah my beds total functional

 

You’ve got a good compromise since you can remove it all - that’s kind of what I meant - either keep it like that or go full rear cage

 

Yeah, idk it’s hard but I’m also getting my long travel shocks too and need to figure it out how I’m gonna mount them I have some ideas but also don’t want the bed to look overcrowded

 

this keeps things pretty nicely packaged

check around 13:40

You could use this/something like this. I think they are planning on offering it as a fuel tank or a storage cell.

 

Does anyone run a fuel tank there with a 4-link setup?

^basically what I plan to do^

 

That’s where solo puts their fuel tank for their 4 link setup

I saw a mention of someone with the JD LCA mount frame? Any long term reviews? Seems like a straight fwd install since you use the factory skid plate bolts to locate the frame. Do all the machined pucks (spacers) come with the kit?

It hasn't been out all that long so you'll be hard-pressed to find a long-term review (I guess long term is subjective) but I've seen nothing but positive things.

 

Ah, gotcha. I haven't been following this thread for a while. I don't think you can go wrong with this.
