Long Travel BS Thread

4+ kit. 16x8 -12/4.00 backspacing. No rub around town with a CMC, but might have to trim glass with 35s in the dirt. Full stuff probably hits inner fenders. Back has 1.25 spydertrax.

 

I think I'll be going to 17x9 -12 with my long travel because I needed a little more clearance to the UCA and spindle with the 40x13.5r17 tires. Hoping the slightly wider wheel and bit more offset will get the tire clear just enough compared to my 17x8.5 0 offset wheels that were already pretty tight on my old 37x12.5r17 tires. We'll see!

 

Your front bumper keeps growing on me every time that I see a picture of it.

 

If that's a coastal offroad, they look good on 3rd gen 4runners like the one in this photo and they're economical in kit form - almost bought one but repurposed something I had on hand.

 

I have an eye out for front bumpers at the moment...for when I get and install a JDFab front 4" kit. Wanting something that will match the glass fenders that I'll end up getting. Currently running OG Trailer Products 2" rise that Ive had installed since 2010 that I doubt will be sufficient with the new wider kit.

 

@Dalandser called it. It’s a coastal off-road weld-it-yourself kit. The kits are economical if you have the skills and tools. They are stitch welded. I opted for an aluminum kit. Only weighs 50 lbs. I’ve been digging it

 

I've got 17x8.5 with 3.5 bs trailreadys.

 

I have absolutely ZERO tire rub full lock in any situation. Cab mount relocate, 35x11.5. No spacer up front.

 

Then you have limited up travel

 

Maybe, works for what I want to do. Im not bombing dunes at 70mph, just crawling around.

 

I have 17x8.5 +0, wrapped with a 315/70/17. DRT CMR, JD Inner fenders, and BTF +4.5 LT, bumped and strapped at 15.5" of travel, clears at full lock and full bump.

 

What are the bolts for on the truss along the axel? looks solid

 

p clamps

 

Hose/wi

Hose/wire clamps?

 

It's heeeeeeerrrrrreeeee

 

It’s still not too late to not go LT…





Welcome to the darkside muhahaha

 

Anyone running 3.5 in front with 2" glass?

 

Yes.

 

Also not too late to come to the cinders meet this weekend.
