Long Travel BS Thread

Pretty sure he's a +4" kit

 

He just got rid of a Solo +2

Also @socalexpeditions w/ a TC +2 kit

 

I ran the Solo +2 for a while, what do you need to know ?

still have it for sale

 

Part 2 dropped today. Man it looked like a fun day. If the truck was done I would have tried to make it

 

Whats your question? Feel Free to call me. I just swapped springs again... I'm getting real experienced with different spring rates.

First beta set of the heavy duty high clearance inner fenders going on at JD Fab. This pic is a 35 at full bump w/ their LT kit :



This is an overlay image from their web site showing stock vs the new inner fender :

 

Who remembers the 3 linked, caged red 2nd gen build thread ? he built it all himself at home, think he just sold it recently...anyone still have that build thread saved ?

yup that's it, thx !

 

Ahh my buddies truck. So bummed he sold it. He needs to hurry up and start working on his damn bronco

 

Wasnt there a dude on here that made his own lower crossmembers for his first gen taco? Does anyone remember or seen anything like this?

 

Brian, was a cool dude for sure. I was building my 3 link right after his and he helped confirm some of my calcs / dims

 

Yeah he’s local-ish to me now so we’ll hang out from time to time. Helping me redesign my leaf setup now too actually. Figured he’s built and raced a few leaf spring trucks so he might know what he’s doing with my attempt to ditch the low shackle hanger and squeak a little better performance out of the current leafs. Should hold me over for a few years hopefully until I inevitably go links

 

Not TW - the only guy I’ve seen actually remaking them to somewhat of a degree.

This guy is rebuilding the x members on a first gen tundra which has the same steering basically

@FlapJack935 check this one out too - they might have redone the front end

Checked theirs out, still the stock cross member.
I might just be the guinea pig and make our own. But at that point I think it’ll do the full hydro steering...
