Long Travel BS Thread

On another note, full lock and full bump was tie rod contact to frame

 

Did you have much shock travel left there? I think I’m going to order one of those clamp bumpstop cans just in case then. I don’t have the stock bump mount anymore. So my only uptravel limit will either be the shock or the cv.

Good call on the tie rod too. I’ll make sure to include that when I check.

 

My bilstein 5100 bottoms out right when LCA hits metal pad

 

I bumped off my upper ball joint and set the can from there. I honestly don't think it'll be an issue for you being your like a +3.5/4" LT kit? Wouldn't hurt to check

 

Mine is 3.5. I wish I would have taken more pics. I only remember bumping before my upper arm hit the wheel well. I don’t think I even looked at the shock other than thinking that sucks I still have travel left.

 

I Just ordered one of these from him as well

 

@erok81 im going to answer your CV bind question today.

spring swap on the truck today and bolt check prior to KOH.

 

Sweet. It’s been bugging me a bit since I posted and I’m not going to get to mine for a few more weeks.

 

no bind with my setup. You’re wider than I am too so I wouldn’t trip over it. She’s maxed out.

 

Nice. Thanks for trying it out. Saves me ordering some parts I don’t need.

 

more parts from jd are always needed…lol

 

One piece framing almost done. Should be mounting the headlights and grille later tonight/tomorrow morning.

 

This is my next project, same setup going to make it flip up.

 

like this?

 

Oh Chris you’re so fancy

 

lmao. You making it out to hammers? Be cool to meet up. I gotta meet up with @WormSquirts already, be cool to bullshit and drink a beer or two…or go rip.

 

I should be out this upcoming Sunday and Monday. Mostly with work buddies and sadly a few golf carts. May have to meet up with y’all to show them how it’s really done.

 

I’m just sitting here waiting for my truck to get finished getting painted… soon as it’s done I’m going to head up

 

sweet so I might get a couple days of shock tuning so I can try and keep up…lol

 

Did you go with the same factory color, or are you spicing it up?
