Marlin Crawler's New Rock Crawling Long Travel IFS Suspension System (#RCLT)

I'm glad they specified the LT IFS truck on 40s for Fordyce, since me and @theesotericone already did it with 37s on a ifs taco and 35s on a 4runner.

 

Lol it was Fordyce? I did that in a CJ7 on 35's with a rear locker.

Depending on trail conditions it's doable with moderately built rig or an absolute shit show if it's wet or snowy. Pretty much every trail is easy on fodees with long travel suspension

 

Yeah the mud fucks things up at a couple rock gardens and winch hill #1 is easy enough it can be done in a taco with 37s

 

Fordyce sounds like my kinda trail. When you're use to that stuff with rain and mud and trails turning into shit shows it's our kind of party.

 

Oh the comments from the greenhorns to offroading that have fallen for the hype and IG marketeering. Great hype 0 follow through. Wonder for those that ordered if your COs will get to you before the MC LT kit

 

Hey, my 35's identify as 40's. lol

 

Yep, someone shared the post on FB 559Yotas and I couldn't help but laugh

 

The interesting thing is they had said that customer kits had shipped before this announcement. I guess they are considering the Dirt Everyday guys customers or there is some misinformation at play.

 

After post number one, I’m amazed they haven’t made the least attempt to step in here.

 

This all day long!!!

 

Does "zero financial assistance" include or preclude the pre-orders? Maybe they didn't fund any of this project from pre-order money.

 

Then why did they take money for preorders, even GFC only takes a small deposit to keep tire kickers off the interested list

 

you found the truth vein in your second paragraph. its not personal, its business. they know they over promised and under delivered, so someone is going to get burned....and here we are. I was *this* close to buying a ticket onto this train starting with the tab reinforcement...yea when asking about getting a taco box *we're not taking reservations and we won't know when we will again and there's no list to sign up for.* like isn't this a huge product for them? that's all their YouTube is about and the RCLT...eh, wasn't impressed and then JD happened. so thank you to Marlin for helping me get hooked up with JD. Best thing ever.

 

What's JD?

 

JD fabrication

 

I spoke with Marlin yesterday and was told that my kit is in the second batch to ship, which will be later this week or early next week. I'm picking it up from them so I'll keep this thread updated when I get the goods. Looking at the instructions it should only take a few days to get installed (including the cam tab reinforcement plates). I'm almost done with my rear 3-link so the timing looks like I'll be installing RCLT over 4th of July weekend.

 

That’s a nice looking rear......

 

That's bitchen.

 

@RokMgmt Great news. I hope you get it quickly and it is everything you hoped for.
