Long Travel BS Thread

About finger width. And I’ll bring it up another 1/2 inch strapped. So it’s not even an issue. Funny that you ask that considering that is what I was just doing….checking clearances.

 

Is that now 1” heim outers for the steering?

 

7/8 for steering and UCA. 1 inch uniballs in the upper spindle and 1.5 inch uniball in the LCA

Nice to see some love for the

 

Anyone got any 2.5x16 king shocks or bypasses? Used is fine. Need rebuild is fine.
Would have to ship to NC.

 

Anyone see any issues with this bedcage design? 1.75 .120 dom

Dang for that price, I could swap out my valving and reservoir adjusters

 

10/10 wouldn’t go smoothies for leaf springs. Just my .02.

 

Educate me please as to why

 

They don’t flow well enough. Not saying you can’t make smoothies work. But it will never be close to a bypass.

May not be perty but she’s all plated and welded in. The frame in this section just sucks balls. It’s not flat, the upper half sits at a higher level than the bottom half. Taking the coil bucket out exposes a big dip in the frame….prolly 3/16 deep and 4 inches wide. Just beat the shit out of the steel to make it somewhat form to the frame. I’m going with it’s better than nothing.

 

Bringing back fun memories lol


Did you look at any of those pre made frame plates? I think mine came from trail gear or something. Might have made it a hair easier to have a flat starting point to work from.

@Airdog here they are-

 

Took this out for a solid rip in the fall colors last night. Finally encountered the situation I’ve been waiting for. A hit so hard it blew the PRV open and ripped the wheel from my hands.

I don’t think any rack out there would have survived said event. But we’re still driving like nothing ever happened.

I’m gonna say this thing is a win at this point.

Also here to say, never trust a kit that uses 250psi rated hose for a return. Because it absolutely would have detonated in this situation. Power steering fluid+hot exhaust=not good.

 

ya’ know… the term “pre run “ isn’t just a catchy name Toyota came up with…right ?

 

To be 100% fair, it was a gigantic hole filled with leaves and was level with the road. 100% booby trap stuff.

 

Slight mod to the inner fenders all good.

 

That 45° tube coming from the cage a-Pilar or just a support to the shock tower?
