Long Travel BS Thread

They just posted on IG them and another shop looking for Prototype trucks. Basic cage 6k. If you strip the cab and pull glass etc. So, may be worth a call

 

AC = 4 60, 4 windows down, 60mph. Done
Fuel level = 5/16 stainless nut tied onto some Kite string. Drop in, pull up see how much is wet. Done.
Disc brakes = have at least front brakes? needle vise grips and zip ties. Done.

 

LMAO the 460 ac doesn't do shit here in az.

 

CVS and one them bottle fan spritzers into your face while driving. Ha!
I grew up driving old trucks and cars no AC. But the world was cooler back then...

 

I've been running option 1.5 for the past 2 years: outer heim, then I welded a small sleeve to the oem inner inner to increase the diameter for a tight boot fit. OEM Tundra boot is completely water tight with this setup.

 

Just makes you feel like you’re in an air fryer if the temp is above 105.

 

Wipes all the heat away....

Things are going to get real tight and fun to deal with. Still need 2-3 inches of up travel. Still also really thinking of moving the pivots 5 inches forward too. Coilovers will probably be just inside of the back wall, bypasses will are looking to be right under and outside the window.

 

What's with the cables entering the bottom of the cab?

They were my quick and dirty rear battery relocation pathway. Grommet bulkheads to pass the cables through. Forgot to get a smaller one for the smaller cable to my accessories. Used an insulated cable fitting for outdoor electrical lol. It’s going to get ripped out and done differently. Probably through the cab.

 

This pedders rear brake kit is the worst thing I have ever done. The kit is horribly fucking engineered and the instructions are fucking useless. The tutorial video is comical how incorrect and how much is left out. Not to mention the whole wheel bearing thing. So over it.

 

Why are you having to deal with the wheel bearing to do the rear disc conversion ?

Is it the rear parking brake drum assembly that is being a PITA ?

 

Might be talking about the backing plate - you can either cut them off or remove and replace the wheel bearing without the plate.

Pittsy, watch 4runner brake videos instead of using the SOS video if that’s what you got.

 

I was watching pedders videos.

Yep, backing plate.

 

yeah with my sos kit you just trim it in place…

 

Honestly at first I kind of thought that was ghetto, but like after dealing with this shit, I dont care. I would rather do that.
