Long Travel BS Thread

Not true, We only work on things we enjoy and are not motivated by money

 

May have misunderstood my meaning....i imagine if a dude came in and said I want 934's on my 1st gen and you said we can do it but the cost is gonna be significant because its a one off and the customer says, thats ok I want it at whatever the price point is....you wouldnt do it???

 

Only if they like working on them - I think they do. He said he needed 10 buyers for LCA frame pivots. Not enough 1st gen guys these days with the dough…

 

Probably not because most people will never actually pay for the amount of time invested to R&D something. The reason we have so many innovative products for the new Tacoma’s is because my best friend gave me a truck for a year along with a blank check and his only request was “make it cool”. Your average guy isn’t going to do that. We have been fortunate over the last 20yrs to have a few dozen customers like this which has allowed for product development beyond the cookie cutter stuff.

If that were always the case my truck would have been built many years ago along with the others I have on deck.

I know it would be easier if I lived out west. I am old and like to do business face to face after being screwed over multiple time is the past.

 

Anyone know anything about bilstein m9200 bypasses? Thinking about doing a nice mix and match with my king coilovers since someone hit me up about selling a pair.

 

what size do you need

 

need some 3.0 x 18 bypasses, just talked to downsouth motorsports and they said getting parts from bilstein is a huge hassle, so i think im gonna wait for some kings or foxes to pop up.

 

ah, some 2.5x16s popped up on RD, could use a coat of steel it but not what your lookin for

 

No, I’ve already got the 16” coilovers so just need some 18’s to go with.

 

Finally got my LT installed. The installation wasn't too bad. Now the truck is in a shop for bar work in the engine bay.

 

Next you'll be doing this but in a far less blurry picture hopefully

 

Hey y’all. So I followed your advice for alignment specs on my FJ. Overall it feels WAY better going straight down the road, but it’s still not quite right. It gets darty in corners and especially under moderate/heavy braking. I have it set slightly toed in as was recommended, but I’m thinking I might want to go a bit more neutral for toe? What do you think?

 

You have quite a bit of deviation between sides on caster, whats up with that?
Whoops I was looking at the before.

 

She was a bit fuckey before

 

Yeah I’d try straight toe and see if it affects anything. Do you have a warranty on that alignment? If you do you don’t run any risk of trying it and returning it after experimenting.

 

who needs alignments...lol. I just put some JD Fab lca mounts on rolled the adjustments all the way in for minimum camber and ripped her around the dunes! rode great....lol
