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

Sounds like about all I need. If it fits it sits

 

lol I was going to say probably feeler gauge territory.

 

Zach, What are you doing for 3rd member, carrier and gears?

 

Whatever @81Trekker picks out for me. Detroit locker though.

 

Stop it with the explicit material! Lol jk you guys build the finest

 

How are you guys dealing with the abs sensors on the 3rd Gen?

 

Eliminate them

 

Going fj case and add delete up front?

 

Nope, you can wire your way around the rear speed sensors

 

Wasn’t sure how easy it was to trick the abs ecu on them.

 

Do you know how to trick the front ones as well by any chance? My biggest concern is the electronic brake booster if it needs speed input to ramp up pressure.

 

Hey guys. I'm finally installing the +2 kit this weekend and have a question for the brain trust. I'm running 35s, and I know the arms push the wheel forward 0.85", so how are y'all setting up the shims on the pivot kit? I don't mind pushing them all the way forward if need be, but I'm just to find a sweet spot in the wheel well.

 

From my understanding, you can push it as far forward until you start making aggressive contact under the headlights. I’ve heard it’s a nightmare with 37s, those who run 35s will be able to answer better.

 

I'm setup with 1 shim behind and 2 forward on my plus 4 kit....so 1/4 forward on 34.5's. Had to trim part of my ADV fiberglass fenders as the front of the tires would hit them at full stuff other than that nothing hit.

 

the further the arms get moved forward decreases the clearance on the tierod and coilover. Dealing with this now and moving the rack forward soon

also have 1 shim behind and 2 front. No issues rubbing due to lift spindle

 

Hey all, real quick, what size is the hanger bolts on the 62 swap? Mines backed off and I apparently don't have the right socket and need to go pick one up.

EDIT: Does 28mm sound right? Or 1 1/8"?
EDIT 2: Well, I bought 1-1/8" socket and wrench. Pretty sure JD uses SAE hardware. Guess Ill find out .

 

Forgot about this. My coil springs make light contact with the tie rod. The longer rod end your shocks have, the better off you’ll be here. Slide rack fixes this but until then scrape scrape.

 

I'm doing the Tundra rack too, which will hopefully move everything forward enough. Bottom line seems to be: I'll just have to play with it till I like how everything fits.

 

Shoulda went with the JD slide rack.....you get to move the tie rod forward away from the coil

 

Don’t think the slide rack is compatible with 3rd Gens.
