Long Travel BS Thread

Having a hard time seeing where the win is here. OEM servo, factory hard lines, what appears to be a take out center bar, and still a single slider/preload adjuster.

It was as if they said “3d scan a factory rack and make half of it billet”

 

ya im in the same boat.

 

I found the chamfered corners from a top view on my rear mount fuel tank really helped with packaging a full tailpipe and brake/air locker lines. Something to consider.

You want to talk about excellent customer service. Tim at DMZ already sent me a message that a new rear hangar is ready for pickup free of charge. I was not expecting that at all especially since I only posted on IG and hadnt contacted him yet. Was more than willing to pay for the abuse i've put his kit through. Ive had the DMZ kit on since December of 2018. Pretty stoked that Tim took time and effort to reach out to me on a sunday to boot.

 

The Original All-Pro before they sold themselves to Trail-Gear did the same when I sheared a 2+ Currie Axle during a trip in the High Sierras. Just like DMZ, hey had the best customer service..

 

what I thought was oil spill from oil change was actually PS fluid. Rack number 5 broken… gonna tighten the hose fitting maybe that came loose

 

Your truck has came a long way since I seen it haha.

 

I know, I should have left it how you saw it... now after seeing Toms truck I really want the LSK kit and a cage.

 

You know I don't Insta but that right there is why DMZ will still be in business 10 years from now. There's a few shops that go above and beyond. Lots of others just looking to make a quick buck. If I ever build the 2nd gen DMZ will get the nod. Good to see your still rallying hard man,.

 

I just went through the same thing on the return hose, I ended up adding another clamp and the issues seems to have gone.....I say that now as I am about to crawl under the truck and deal with the fan rubbing the shroud from the core issues.

 

That’s how shit should be handled.

I remember when I was a wee little stock length arm kinda guy, I called Tim and picked his brain for probably 45 minutes, asking a lot of retarded questions I probably should’ve had the answers to before calling him, but he answered everything happily, and got me going in the right direction. Dude is awesome.

 

12" is the plan, I love Bilstien products (and prices) so looking at the 12" 5165 smoothie with resi paired with a DRT shock relo. Deciding on valving still (need to learn how all that stuff works first). Deaver/Dobinson/Atlas HD pack I've learned will only cycle ~12" so that pairing should work well to maximize uptravel and clearance.

 

Talk to Ian @WEW about buying Bilsteins and having them valved for your application.

 

Depending on when you’re pulling the trigger, I’m pulling my 12x2.5 RR/adjusters Kings sometime this summer. They’re probably ugly but I can get them prettied up.

 

Cool! Sent you a PM

 

well! that was a big Earthquake....

Broke a window and cracked our patio floor tiles.

Rattled my work!
… can’t wait to go home and see if anything is broke :/

 

Wow!

I called WEW right after it happened, had to make sure my bump stops are ok. The Epicenter is about a mile from their shop.. Everyone up here in LA felt it, except for me of course
