Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

No point as the lower uniball is not the limiting factor. Also I want the spindles/upper arm combo to be a retro fit for existing customers. Last thing I want is for guys having to buy a whole new kit

 

Trekker version of 2nd gen TTB!

 

My lower spindle adapter contacted the lower arm at bump, I ground some of it off to clear the lower.

 

That’s very very cool.

 

Correct, the new spindle with have a completely different interface to eliminate the factory lower ball joint adapter

 

Put me on the list!

 

You're gonna be working 5 jobs to pay for it all by the time they are done cranking out new things!

 

Nah my guy. It's called being frugal with everything else. Plus I'm not going to get everything.

 

Unfortunately for me, no matter how frugal we are life always throws us nasty curveballs. Wife's been in the hospital for 11 days now and still no idea when she'll get released. At least she's starting to feel better.

 

Man bro I really hope she gets out soon. Prayers are with her. If you need anything let me know. Don't worry eventually things will look up I know that crap can take a toll on ya.

 

She's a trooper and she'll get through this too. I just hope she comes out better for it. Started with a surgery to relieve other things.
On the bright side, as long as everything is covered by insurance, it shouldn't cost more than 4k.

 

@81Trekker because your spindle gasket kit fit fJ cruiser?

 

I'm waiting for this, then I'll redo everything front to back with a cage on a fresh frame. yolo

 

I welded them on FJ cruiser spindles, which I put on my 4runner. No problemos

 

A new spindle that allows for a little extra travel and uses existing LT kits.... I like the sound of that. Safe to say it will come with the heim outer conversion? @81Trekker

 

How much for stick welded

 

How much for weld it yourself?

 

Alright, awhile ago someone asked if the Total Chaos spec'd bypass shock will fit with the JD kit and I don't recall if anyone was able to confirm. In simple terms, yes the bypass will fit using the JD shock hoops with the LT kit and fully clears throughout the cycle of the suspension. That said, the shock is 1.5" short at full bump so the bypass zones are a little skewed and you will essentially loose that in the bump zone. So I'd recommend stick with the JD spec'd shock if looking to purchase new.

The FOX PN has been made obsolete so this is more for anyone who finds a pair on the used market or the King equivalent. I can't imagine the lengths differ much.

This is based off the 2.25" kit with 35" tires and SCS Ray 10 w/ 4.3" backspacing.



Clearance at full bump.

Clearance on the comp tubes.

Tire clearance at full lock and droop.

Awesome, the sealed ball joint & uniballs will be super nice for those of us who see snow!

 

Is this going to include the 4wd guys too? If so, does this change anything with the axles? Or still utilizing a stock hub?
