Long Travel BS Thread

Anyone have the camburg trail series LT?

 

Buy my Deaver expedition stage 3, add AG shock relocation, call it a day!

 

what @Evenflow said, there fairly expensive compared to sua, but also if you go a standard canoe link style link setup your ground clearance is far worse than sua. Good sua is probably more than most will need.

 

Good sua can do quite a bit. Sent the truck about 10ft bigger/further than ever before at the cinders takeover last weekend.

 

Are any of you guys with 2nd Gen sua setups carrying a rtt and bed rack like @bs9488 ? I had to go to a h70hd just for 2 35” spares, a jack, rear dual batteries, and cantilever setup on my first Gen to maintain ride height with more than 6.5” up travel I was getting with my e30 / standard h70 pack.

 

This is how my truck sits with my RTT and camping gear along with a 35 spare. DMZ SUA just his regular leaf pack.

 

How much up travel do you get?

 

Right around 6 inches. Usually sitting around 8 normally

 

I'll need to switch leaf packs. I have the H70 with an RTT and 37" spare. About 6" of up travel as well. JD spring under. Without the tent, it's perfect though.

 

Do you know what you are going to switch to? Something I need to look into. I'm on the camburg sua, and I think the e30 pack, but I could use a little more lift to get the bypasses in a better resting position.
Currently around 5 to 6in of up, but with my cantilever the bypasses are already almost in the bump zone.

 

@Sixthelement truck has the gfc, 35” spare, jack and some tools and with the h70hd and jd sua sits about 7.5” of up travel. Would have about an inch more if we moved the upper shock mount or pushed it into the bed. But wanted to keep the bed sealed and with only running 12” shocks not like we were shooting for crazy travel numbers or anything. Sits pretty perfect at 60/40 up/down travel.

 

Deaver H70HD here too. Worked great over the weekend loaded with 2 full fuel cans, 35" spare, and about 100lbs of whatever other gear I had over the axle. Had 4 people in the truck at one point and still felt pretty good.

 

If you're thinking about any weight get the Deaver H70HD pack. You can always take a leaf out if it's too much but you can't add a leaf if it's not enough. I'm very happy with my HD pack with a leaf out.

 

Thank you all for the advice! I really appreciate the input. My first time dealing with weight, so I'll take all the info I can get! Looks like I'm going with AG kit and SUA then.

Will it be good to run the hammer hangers on SUA setup?

 

No. Whatever SUA kit you get will have the hangers you need.

 

I'm late, but h70HD as everyone mentioned already haha

 

Figured that haha. Those are the two options on the camburg site, e30hd and h70hd. I went with the e30hd since they say it's a little better for load. But I guess I should know by now about trusting their website.

 

How are all you measuring your travel?
Center of hub to top of fender?

 

Bump pad to bottom of compressed bump
