Long Travel BS Thread

im at standard .012" stacks for compression and .008" for rebound . havent revalved since i did the cage and high speed is a little too soft . so when i get a chance im going to a .012"/.015" pack. the first 3 larger dia shims will be .012" and the smaller 3 shims will be .015" shims. of course thats with a smoothbody shock so a bypass would be different.

 

plz don't paint the hoops red

 

i decided im going to paint them neon pink

 

going to incorproate these into my new bumper... lol

Those are Brotastic Matt!!!

 

???? what size / do most use for the main tube on there bumpers??1.75 or 2"

 

I recommend doing 1.75" over 1.5"

 

yeah.. was thinking 2" main tube with 1.5" for the skidplate/corner support bars..

 

I used 1.75"

 

If I could do it again I'd do a 2" main tube

 

2"


wish my bender could handle that

 

Wake up motherfuckers, I finally have a day off to relax around the house and you all have been way too quiet!

 

Hah, yeah waiting on Matt to post vid for us to discuss lol

 

Ok, whats your guys opinions on wheel spacers with studs on them on the front ? Just out of curiosity.

 

For Independent suspension (front) I'm not a big fan of spacers (as in 1"+ size spacers) they seem to put more strain then nesscary, especially since you already have LT. Assuming the backspacing on your current wheels doesn't fit?

I think if you ran a longer stud with a 1/4" spacer it'd be fine. Maybe that'd give you enough clearance

 

i've never seen a person have a problem with the bigger spacers like the spifertrax?

 

Not problems as in dangerous, but problems as in unnesscary wear/tear, due to pushing the load of the wheel further out.

 

ah i gotcha

 

It's do able for sure, but I wouldn't make it a permanent solution for clearancing wheels

 

i'll try the 1.25" spacers out when fitting my 35's, see what works better with my set up....
